When handing out scholarships to middle schoolers, eyebrows tend to get raised. But when dealing with Hailee Swain, it would be wise to board the hype train as early as possible.
On Thursday morning, Swain, an eighth-grader at Holy Innocents’ Episcopal down in Atlanta, GA, announced that she had picked up an offer from the Kentucky Wildcats. It’s already her third Divison I offer, with the previous two coming from Xavier and Ole Miss in March. While it might shock some fans of the Big Blue Nation to see a 14-year old pick up an offer from multiple high-level programs, Swain is more than worth the excitement.
