Crawford is also thrilled to have his recruiting process completed.
"It's definitely a big relief (to be committed) and I can just focus on my senior year. The hardest part of the process for me was more towards the end and just trying to think about what you really want to do and where to spend the next four years of school."
Brady Crawford is verbally committed to Sioux Falls.
