Austin Freeman a Hoya
[From the Washington Post today. Freeman is ranked 24th by Scout, 37th by Rivals ]
Yesterday's other big recruiting news came from DeMatha guard Austin Freeman, a third-team All-Met last season. Though only a junior and still a year away from being able to make his college choice official, Freeman announced he had committed to play for Georgetown, picking the Hoyas over Maryland, Notre Dame and North Carolina State.
"He really liked the players that they have coming in, the players they currently have, and he loves the coaching staff," DeMatha Coach Mike Jones said. "His family wanted him close to them. Obviously [Georgetown] plays in the Big East. It's a great Catholic school with a great academic reputation. There's a ton of reasons why he picked them. With his final four choices, he really couldn't have made a bad decision."
