Kevin Huerter’s rise in the rankings among the nation’s top high school players has mirrored Maryland’s ascent among the country’s top basketball programs. It will be interesting to see how the 6-5 shooting guard from Clifton, N.Y., will continue to grow along with the Terps.
Huerter, who last week jumped more than 30 spots to No. 41 in ESPN’s most recent ratings, orally committed Monday to Maryland after visiting College Park over the weekend. Huerter had previously visited Villanova, but will cancel his planned trips to both Notre Dame and Michigan.
Huerter said via Twitter: "I am excited to announce I have committed to the University of Maryland!
