Recruiting Report: Evan Pogge (2019)
Normal Community 6’6” 2019 post Evan Pogge has good strength around the hoop. Finishes well on dump off passes and garners deep post position in the paint. Quality area rebounder. He was tough defensively blocking multiple shots in the game we saw with the Illinois Irish in July.
He spoke about his July with the Illinois Irish.
“It went well. I thought as a team we played hard and as a team. We have come a long way as a team the last three years. That has been good.”
How did he feel that he played individually?
“I have played well. I am trying to be the guy that gets rebounds and be the hustle guy. Get blocks and cleaning up boards. Make mid-range jump shots.”
He went into what he brings to the table as a player.
“Powerful forward that will hustle on every play. I am 6’6” so I am going to hit the boards. I am going to hit mid-range jump shots. Working on my three point shot. I am going to hustle every play.”
Several small colleges are showing interest in his services.
“Millikin, Ripon, Illinois College, and Eureka College.”
