UPDATE: NCAA National Letter of Intent signings

Published 9:54 am Friday, November 13, 2009

I expect a bunch of local student-athletes to sign an NCAA National Letter of Intent sometime between Wednesday (Nov. 11) and Nov. 18, the early signing period for many sports (including basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball). Many recruits are waiting until Thursday to sign because of the Veterans Day holiday.

As I confirm signings, I will post updates on this blog post. Click here to see an updated list of Class of 2010 verbal commitments.

The signing period for some sports (including football, soccer, track and cross country) is in February.

If you know of commitments and signing ceremonies we haven’t reported yet, e-mail mcane@heraldnet.com.

8:16 p.m. Wednesday

The only local Letter of Intent signing from today that I am aware of is:

*Shorewood’s Laurin Williams (Ohio University women’s swimming)

I expect the following athletes to sign at various ceremonies on Thursday:

*Cascade’s Danielle Love (University of Oregon women’s basketball)

*Glacier Peak’s Marjorie Heard (University of Washington women’s basketball)

*Jackson’s Erin Feeney (Western Washington University women’s basketball)

I’m at Glacier Peak High, where Marjorie Heard signed with Washington women’s basketball a little more than an hour ago.

Earlier today I was at Cascade High and watched Danielle Love sign with Oregon women’s basketball.

And I talked to Jackson High’s Ryan Todd, who said the five-person signing ceremony this afternoon at Jackson went great.

Check out The Herald on Friday to read about some of our local recruits and see a list of signings.
