Wichita State landed its first commitment of the spring recruitment period as junior college prospect Matt McFarlane announced his intentions to play for WSU. McFarlane becomes the first recruit to commit during the Isaac Brown Era.
McFarlane, a 6’10 center, opted for the junior college route coming out of high school and played the past two seasons at Colby Community College. He averaged 10.7 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game while shooting 53.7% from the field this past season. McFarlane averaged 11.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks, the year prior.
McFarlane adds some much needed depth to the center position after Isaiah Poor Bear-Chandler and Josaphat Bilau entered the transfer portal earlier this week.
