Greyhound football [1] standout wide receiver Reece Horn signed Friday with the NFL’s Tennessee Titans [2]. The Cathedral High School grad’s four seasons at UIndy included being named GLVC Offensive Player of the Year as a junior and GLVC Special Teams Player of the Year as a senior.

Having earned his Sport Management [3] degree, the All-American now joins the Titans’ 90-man roster with a chance at making the 53-man active roster later this summer, according to UIndy Athletics [1], where plenty more information and photos can be found.

Another Greyhound record-setter, softball pitcher Morgan Foley, capped an incredible senior season and college career by signing with the Chicago Bandits [8] of the National Pro Fastpitch league, who opened their season Thursday night.

The Communication [9] major from Louisville was a four-year All-American at UIndy and was named 2016 D-II Midwest Region Player of the Year [10] and finalist for the national honor. Her accomplishments (including two NCAA records for most strikeouts in a game) are too numerous to list here, but you can read more at UIndy Athletics [11], the Bandits’ website [8] and the Chicago Daily Herald [12].
