Basketball still has an “early” signing from November 14-November 21 and a “regular” signing period from April 17- May 15th. Football has an “early” signing period from December 19th- December 21st and a “regular” signing period from February 6th- April 1st.  Senior football players Dylan Jones and Steven Faucheux both made their commitment on December 20th during the early football signing period(Link to article)
