Dozens of high school athletes will be signing their National Letter's of Intent on Wednesday, Feb. 1 to further their hockey careers at the Division I level.

An NLI is an agreement between an athlete and a collegiate sports program that binds them together. Players aren't required to sign an NLI, but high school seniors who are already verbally committed to a university typically sign the agreement on signing day. Once signed, athletes can no longer be recruited by other programs.

The fall signing day was on Nov. 9, and many athletes already signed their forms to play at the collegiate level, but some will now sign when the process opens.

Dozens of hockey players across the Midwest will sign their National Letters of Intent on Wednesday to play at the collegiate level.

Athletes planning on competing at the Division III or ACHA levels will also be honored as they sign celebratory signing forms.

Here is a list of athletes from The Rink Live's coverage area who have participated in the Feb. 1 signing day so far. This list will be updated throughout the week.
