The Mountaineers had two main targets to finish out the 2016 recruiting class. One of them, Sagaba Konate, committed last week. The other, Maciej Bender, committed this evening. It's safe to say it's been a great few days for WVU basketball.
Just days after receiving a commitment from 6'8 forward Sagaba Konate, Bob Huggins and the West Virginia Mountaineers picked up another target.
Maciej Bender, a 6'10 power forward from Mountain Mission School in Grundy, Virginia, made his pledge to Huggins and the Mountaineers this evening.
Thank you to all the schools that recruited me, but I'm proud to say that I have commited to West Virginia Univeristy!
