With the NCAA fall signing period for high school seniors beginning Wednesday, area coaches, athletic directors and parents are urged to submit recruiting information on area athletes to the Belleville News-Democrat as soon as possible.

The fall signing period includes basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball. The News-Democrat will publish a list of area recruits next week and wants to include as many names as possible.

Anyone with information on players committing to or signing with NCAA Division I or Division II teams or other colleges should email Norm Sanders at nsanders@bnd.com. Please include the player's name, sport and college choice.
