East Chapel Hill diver Nick McCrory will sign a national letter of intent Wednesday to attend Duke, according to East Athletic Director Ray Hartsfield. McCrory will sign along with ECH baseball player James Heine, who has an NLI to attend Georgetown.
McCrory's decision isn't surprising. He represented Duke Aquatics at last spring's Olympic Trials. McCrory is the nation’s best high school diver and has broken the N.C. High School Athletic Association record three years in a row.
Heine is top all-around athlete at East Chapel Hill. He was a three-letter man — football, basketball and baseball — before deciding to concentrate on his pitching for the Wildcats last season.
