Kentucky recruit guilty of misdemeanor

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Kentucky recruit John Wall has admitted guilt to a misdemeanor and entered a program for first offenders which could lead to having his record cleared.

Wall, 18, was charged with breaking and entering.

Wake County Assistant District Attorney Phillip Cowan said that under the terms of the plea, Wall must complete 75 hours of community service, pay court costs and program fees and stay out of trouble for the next six months.

The 6-foot-4 point guard at Raleigh Word of God signed a national letter of intent to play at Kentucky last week. He was charged after police found him walking out of a vacant house in Raleigh. Wall and two other teenagers were cited.
