The Cardinals have yet to land a high school commitment in the 2026 class, but Kelsey is attacking the 2027 class, and it is paying off: he landed a local hidden gem. Wright is a 3-star power forward who is a Louisville native and played his first two seasons at Fairdale High School, but now lives in Indiana, where he is playing his junior season at La Lumiere School.
