HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. - Colerain High School basketball standout Danyelle Echoles has signed a national letter of intent to attend Northern Kentucky University and play for the Norse next season.

Echoles, a 5-foot-6 guard and one of the top prep players in Cincinnati last season, averaged 13.8 points per game as a senior for Colerain. Echoles was 39-for-110 from three-point range last season, and she connected on seven three-pointers in one game.

Echoles finished her career with 1,228 points and was named first team All-Greater Miami Conference last season. She also shot 72.2 percent from the free-throw line and earned first team All-City honors as a senior.

Echoles will join an NKU program that posted a 16-12 record last season. The Norse will return three starters from that team.
