Mars Hill football unveiled its 2024 National Signing Day class of recruits this week. The Lions signed 36 players and added five transfers.
Running back Nate Crosby Jr. from Monroe (Monroe HS), along with wide receivers Edward Louis Jr. (Tamarac, Fla.) and Axzavian Alexander (Palm Bay, Fla.), are considered three-star prospects by recruiting services.
Mars Hill did a solid job recruiting the southeast. Ten signees hail from North Carolina hometowns. Twelve are from Florida and seven more are from Georgia.
Mars Hills posted an 8-2 record a year ago and narrowly missed out on the Division II playoffs.
