Three seniors from Owensboro plus one former Red Devils will be joining the KWC roster next year. Jordan Sorrells (LB), Tyren Hayden (WR) and Imonte Owsley (WR) all graduate from OHS this year. KiShawn Walker graduated in 2015 and is transferring to KWC from Western Kentucky University.
Apollo’s Geoffrey Johnson (DB) and Brandon Husk (WR), as well as Daviess County’s Shane Riley (RB), round out the local talent signing with Wesleyan.
This entire signing class consists of 24 student-athletes from Kentucky. Other states with signees include Illinois (3), Georgia (2), Tennessee (2) and Indiana (1).
