Kentucky Scouting Director winter unsigned

On Sunday, December 15, PBR Kentucky hosted the Winter Unsigned Senior Showcase in what was the grand opening of Legends Sports Academy in Louisville.  The showcase afforded unsigned seniors from across the state the opportunity to showcase their abilities in front of the PBR Kentucky staff and college coaches from Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, and West Virginia.

It was a big day for players in attendance as several received multiple phone calls before they even returned home to set up visits to schools, and multiple players have received offers since the conclusion of the event.
