A 'dream come true': White signs with Denver, is officially Red Lake's first Division I recruit

RED LAKE -- Red Lake High School and its surrounding community came out in full force Wednesday morning to celebrate its first Division I athlete.

Grace White officially signed her letter of intent to play basketball at the University of Denver, becoming the first Red Lake athlete in any sport to commit to compete in NCAA Division I athletics.

“I can barely wrap my head around it,” White said after an assembly that was held in the school’s gymnasium before a large crowd of students, faculty, family and friends. “It’s crazy to have your dream come true that you dreamt about since you were little. To see the support that I have and all the people coming out today, I’m truly blessed and grateful for everything.”
