Bonesville.net Staff

As signing day looms, East Carolina's recruiting efforts have been rewarded with a pair of significant late commitments. The list of known verbal pledges rises to 24 with decisions by a coveted receiver and a prize offensive lineman to become Pirates. ECU has also gotten off to an early start putting together its 2003 recruiting class.

Iverick Harris, a physical and swift wide receiver from Burlington Cummings High School, and Drew Sutton, a king-size offensive lineman from Warner Robins, GA, High School, are expected to formally sign on Wednesday.

Harris paid visits to N.C. State and Virginia and Sutton visited Georgia during the recruiting process, while ECU's other new commitment, junior Michael Horner, decided to simplify the recruiting rigors a year ahead of time.

Horner, a defensive tackle from Williamston High School, has committed to join the Pirates in 2003, following a long line of star Tiger athletes who have gone on to play at ECU.

A verbal commitments is not binding but signals a prospect's intention to ink a formal letter-of-intent on signing day. The NCAA's official signing day for the 2002 recruiting class is Wednesday, February 6.
