Nov 8, 2023, 3:27 PM | Updated: Nov 9, 2023, 11:14 am
SALT LAKE CITY – Football gets the most attention, but there are many incredible non-revenue sports under the Utah Athletics umbrella, and they made a haul during National Signing Day.
The Utes had an incredible run in the 2022-23 competitive season that has helped make them a solid destination for world-class non-revenue sport athletes. Women’s basketball, gymnastics, men’s tennis, track, field, and cross country, softball and lacrosse all earned conference titles while the ski team earned another National Championship.
If you missed it earlier, here is what happened on National Signing Day for Utah gymnastics, Utah women’s basketball, and Utah men’s basketball.
Check out who signed where in our running list of non-revenue sport signees.
Good morning, to all our future Utes!
We’re excited to welcome you to the family! 🙌#GoUtes #NationalSigningDay pic.twitter.com/ocxRKwOa9J
