NATIONAL SIGNING DAY LIST

It's here.  National Signing Day - the day many young at athletes and proud parents have pointed to for much of their athletic careers is upon us, as another class of young men and women chart their course for higher education and athletic excellence.

DigitalSports is proud to have chronicled the successes of many of these athletes and although it is not our mission to chase every rumor and track every lead on the treacherous recruiting circuit, we certainly enjoy celebrating the news, as each athlete announces his or her intentions.

Our websites are full today of stories about those signing national letters of intent, as today begins the regular signing period, as outlined by the NCAA, for football, soccer, field hockey, cross country, track & field and men's water polo.  In recognition of those who have signed a national letter of intent, we have compiled the following list, which we will continue to update.  If a name is missing or a new letter is signed, please contact Gary Adornato and the list will be updated.

Congratulations to all of those who have signed and best of luck as you continue to pursue your dreams.
