Recruiting Roundup – Recent Commitments, Offers, and More

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Typically once the high school season begins the recruiting news slows down a little bit. Most of that has to do with the fact that, of course, this is also when college programs are busy with their own seasons. College coaches hit the road to evaluate prospects, but there are certainly fewer offers and visits to report. That is why it has been awhile since our typical "Weekly Recruiting Update" has ran. There simply hasn't been much news. However, now that the season is starting to approach its final few weeks, we've seen a run of commitments here in the state of Indiana. Let's highlight those prospects as well as some other recent recruiting news.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1297015"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67ab9fc5b381a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wabash College pulled off a big recruiting win landing the commitment of Cathedral guard [player_tooltip player_id='1297015' first='Deric' last='Cannady'].
