Continue ReadingYesterday was the first day that Division I programs could reach out to prospects of the 2022 class. Many didn’t wait long to offer as a few schools called and offered their high priority recruits just minutes after the clock struck midnight. The prospects in Baltimore experienced their fair share of attention and I’ll try to sort it all out in this article.
Batchelor keeps momentum rolling
We saw Noah Batchelor Noah Batchelor 6'6" | SF IMG Academy | 2022 State #184 Nation FL established a name for himself in the national scheme of recruiting after a solid performance at USA Basketball Mini Camp. After a sophomore season at his new school, Glenelg Country, the 6-foot-7 wing experienced some ups and downs, but high major programs showed today they’re still all in on the fact that Batchelor is a sniper from deep and can be an explosive finisher around the rim. He received offers from Bryant, NC State, Marquette and Wake Forest while others such as BYU, Florida State, Georgetown, George Washington, Georgia, Maryland, Mount St. Mary’s, Penn, Pittsburgh, Virginia and Virginia Tech all reached out. Of the group who reached out, George Washington, Maryland and Virginia Tech had previously offered. I would be surprised if the others listed didn’t offer Batchelor sometime here in the near future as well.

Whitmore capitalizes off strong sophomore campaign
There were plenty of question as Cameron Whitmore Cameron Whitmore 6'7" | PF Archbishop Spalding | 2022 State #30 Nation MD came into the 2019-20 season after missing both his high school and AAU season dealing with knee injuries. He gave answers to any questions that were raised by being one of the best players in the MIAA A Conference regardless of class. Division I programs took note quickly and Whitmore saw that today as he was offered by Bryant, Creighton, Maryland and Mount St. Mary’s. Whitmore also heard from Howard, NC State, UCF and Wake Forest.
Gilman’s [player_tooltip player_id="777071" first="Christian" last="Winborne"] enjoyed a breakout sophomore campaignWinborne gaining steam
Christian Winborne Christian Winborne 6'2" | CG Gilman | 2022 State #199 Nation MD is one of most dynamic guards you’ll find in the 2022 DMV prospect pool. Prior to yesterday, he held offers from Loyola, Massachusetts and UMBC. Bryant, Delaware State, Howard, Mercer, Mount St. Mary’s and Morgan State all extended offers to the 6-foot-2 guard yesterday. Air Force, George Washington, Georgia, Georgia State, Harvard, Hofstra, Mississippi Valley State, Towson Wake Forest and Yale contacted Winborne throughout the day.
Poly duo is on the radar
Poly has produced a respectable number of Division I prospects at the low, mid and high major level. Next up for the 2022 class seems to be Bryce Lindsay Bryce Lindsay 6'2" | CG St. Frances | 2022 State MD and Adam Walden Adam Walden 6'9" | C Baltimore Polytechnic | 2022 MD . Lindsay, a 6-foot-2 combo guard who is arguably the best shooter you’ll find in the DMV, received an offer from Bryant while hearing from schools such as Georgia State, Mount St. Mary’s, Ole Miss, UCF and VCU. Walden, a 6-foot-9 forward with good size, received an offer from Bryant while hearing from Howard and Yale.
Mt. Carmel backcourt
Deon Perry Deon Perry 5'8" | PG Mt. Carmel | 2022 State MD , a 5-foot-8 quick, shifty point guard who can shoot with range didn’t receive any offers yesterday, however he heard from Bryant, James Madison, North Carolina A&T and San Diego. Tobi Nnadozie Tobi Nnadozie 6'4" | SF Mt. Carmel | 2021 MD , a 6-foot-3 guard with explosive athleticism also heard from James Madison and North Carolina A&T. Bryant and Mount St. Mary’s also made contact with Nnadozie after a productive first year in the MIAA since transferring from Perry Hall. Neither player has offers up to this point, but that shouldn’t remain for long. Both are dynamic difference makers who can produce in multiple ways.
