Signing Day Brings Another Into Fold

It's National Signing Day, which doesn't really mean as much to Ivy League hopefuls as it does to others because the Ivy doesn't recognize the Letter of Intent. That said, it means a lot to everyone else, which is why most Ivy prospects have now committed, including a new one for these pages:

Andrew Lemkuil of Kingswood Oxford School of West Hartford, Conn., had options at Bryant, Fordham and elsewhere but had decided on Dartmouth per Twitter. The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Lemkuil played outside linebacker and wide receiver at Kingswood Oxford, captaining the team as a senior and making the All-New England first team as well as first team All-FAA. He helped the Wyverns win the New England prep school championship. (LINK)

Here's his senior highlight film:

I'll be posting photos during the day from the various signing celebrations. As has been the case for the past few years, you are welcome to send along photos and I'll try to post one from every incoming Dartmouth player I can.

If you have a photo or link to send along, CLICK HERE and it will address an email to me with the subject SigningDay. Then just include the link or photo. Thanks!

(Scroll down THIS LINK to see a selection of photos from last year's Signing Day for incoming Dartmouth freshmen.)

Here's the recruiting list I have worked up. Apologies for wrong positions, heights and weights. As noted I've got at least one more name in the works that I'm trying to confirm and there could be a couple of others. There is also at least one walk-on who has been widely reported as a recruit.
