Kenny Brooks landed his first recruit from the class of 2025 on Wednesday afternoon as five-star wing Kaelyn Carroll announced her commitment to Kentucky.
The Massachusetts native is ranked No. 15 in the ESPN Top 100 for her class, choosing the Cats over prestigious programs such as Ohio State and North Carolina. She had at least eight recorded offers.
Along with her commitment, Carroll was named to the “Top 12 Prospects Regardless of Class” list by ESPNW and the “Naismith Player of the Year Watchlist” for high school basketball. She is also the highest-ranked commitment since Treasure Hunt in 2020, who stood at No.
