Michigan women’s basketball coach Kim Barnes Arico announced the signings of Macy Brown, Katy Eidle and Taylor Woodson to National Letters of Intent on Wednesday (Nov. 11). The class is ranked No. 18 by Premier Basketball.
“We are really excited to officially welcome these three to Michigan,” Barnes Arico said of her Michigan class in a statement. “We were able to get three Midwest players to stay home, which is really exciting because they are in our footprint and their incredible families can be part of their journey.
“All three of them are unbelievable students, as well as dedicated, disciplined basketball players. They fit what Michigan women’s basketball is all about with their grit and toughness, while filling some needs of ours moving forward. They are all so versatile on the court with the ability to play multiple positions on both sides of the ball.
“Macy, Katy and Taylor will all be amazing additions to our program with their abilities on the court and their personalities off the court.”
2023 Michigan Wolverines football kicker commit Adam Samaha will officially participate in the Dec. 17 U.S. Army All-American Bowl. The Ann Arbor (Mich.) Huron product received his game jersey from the bowl at a Wednesday afternoon ceremony in his school’s gymnasium.
“It was an honor. I’m truly blessed and very humbled by it,” Samaha told TheWolverine.com. “It’s a great opportunity ahead of me, and I can’t wait to make the most out of it.”
The On3 Consensus rates Samaha as the No. 6 overall kicker in his class, but a U.S. Army All-American Bowl rep said the game would be hard pressed to find a better player at his position. Former Michigan specialist and elite kicking trainer Brandon Kornblue was involved in the selection process and put in a great word.
