In response to mrjames
Harvard recruits finished strong:
Noah Kirkwood (4* CG; 6'7") led Northfield Mt. Hermon to a 31-4 record and a New England League championship. Kirkwood averaged 15.9ppg, 5.9rbs and 6.7 assists. Shot 56% as a guard and 247 has him ranked at #67 nationally, with a composite ranking of #121. Had offers from UVA, Va Tech, TX, Vanderbilt, Wichita St., Pitt, Tulane, GW and St. Bonaventure.
Spencer Freedman (3* PG; 5'11" of Santa Ana's Mater Dei (and teammate of Penn recruit Michael Wang) became the first player to be selected as Trinity League MVP for 3 consecutive years. Mater Dei won it's division championship but was upset in the regionals. Freedman scored 16.6ppg and dished out 4.9apg. 247Sports gives Freedman a composite national ranking of 133. Offers from USC, Washington, Rick, UCSB and Cal St. Northridge.
Kale Catching (3*; 6'4", SF) 405 composite ranking by247Sports. Can't find much but has a strong build, is explosive and can shoot. Reminds me of Justin Bassey.
Mason Forbes (6'8", PF) inspired his Folsom CA team to a California tournament upset of top ranked Salesian. Salesian had its 22 game unbeaten string snapped and entered as high as 3rd in the nation in at least one poll. Forbes recorded a triple-double with 14pts, 13rbs and 11 blocks. Forbes averaged 19pts, 8rbs and 2.3bpg. Forbes does not have a national ranking/stars. Highlight videos show shot blocking and most points following misses. Long and lean, not sure about offensive skills.
In the footsteps of the Class of 2016 + Johnson/McCarthy, is it possibly only Kirkwood plays a significant role next season. Anyone who knows more please step up.
