Verbal Commits @verbalcommits 8h8 hours ago 2019 Cardinal Hayes (NY) G Joe Touissant has received an offer from Iona.
Joe Touissant 5'10" guard who plays with NY Rens. Here is a report from 2015 Rumble in the Bronx 14u: "Too quick to cover with one guy. Gets going to the rim with ease, but then will seek a body to bang against so he can get the "and-one" as icing on the cake. His spring-loaded elevation ability sets up a lethal mid range jumper."

Verbal Commits @verbalcommits 36m36 minutes ago 2019 Archbishop Molloy (NY) G Cole Anthony has received an offer from Iona.
Cole Anthony - 6'1" PG from Archbishop Molloy and played AAU for the Rens. He is Greg Anthony's kid. Ver smooth player that gets to the hoop. Penetrates and dishes the ball while playing thru contact. Has a very good handle, can shoot, has good range, rebounds and plays D. Makes other players around him look better. Very complete all around player at this time in his development. He seems to love playing against the best and he wants the ball when a game is on the line.
He is Greg Anthony's kid. His mom is Crystal McCrary is a lawyer and author, and in 2007 was chosen as one of Crain’s New York Business‘s 40 under 40. She wrote a novel with Patrick Ewing's wife called "Homecourt Advantage" about a fictional hoops team called the “New York Flyers” that was based on the off court antics of the Knicks. She has also appeared on "The View" and has been a legal analyst for Fox News and CNBC. For those of you that work down on the Street, Cole's step father is Ray McGuire, head of Global Banking at Citigroup and he is also well known for his involvement with many NY area charities.

Kareem Reid - 6'7" PF/C with a 7' wingspan. Many list him at 6'8" but I don't think so but he is still growing. This kid has a huge ceiling. Already is a great defender. He is a good athlete and isa willing to bang with bigger players. He blocks shots, rebounds and picks off lots of passes. Needs to work on his post moves and he needs to learn to use both hands. He understands ball movement and is a good passer. He has lots of skills though for a big this young. Could end up a big time recruit if he improves offensively... if not he will be a Rhamel Brown type of mid major player. This kid should be fun to watch during his development.
From Recruit the Bronx - 2016 MTG Spring Classic "Kareem Reid 2019 6'7 F/C, John Bowne HS AAU Team: NYJayhawks and NYC Finest. Kareem Reid is a potential player. As a 6'7 freshman, colleges should be all over him. He's a good shot blocker and once he gets stronger, he'll also be a monster on the boards. He still has a lot of developing to do but certain poster dunks and blocked shots make Kareem stand out as a high level prospect."

Rivals Nation @rivalsnation 1h1 hour ago Congrats to Akok Akok & Tanahj Pettway who picked offers from Iona tonight. @_akok1 and @tanahj_x3 on the rise.
Akok Akok - 6'8" PF - Manchester West HS and Mass Rivals - who will be playing at Putnam Science this season. Was a 2018 recruit but just reclassified to 2019.
Scouting reports: "Manchester West, Mass Rivals – He’s not nearly as far along in the development process as some of the other players on this list, and that’s part of what makes him so exciting. His game is still somewhat unpolished, but he started showing off his upside this summer with great length, quick bounce and touch out to the arc and has late bloomer written all over him. " -New England Recruiting Report | Friday, August 19th, 2016
" He might have made the biggest impression of anyone in the gym. First, he’s grown a couple of inches since last year. Second, he’s very long (his wingspan was measured at 7’1.5” by NERR’s Mike Yagmin at last week’s Big Strick Classic). Third, he’s a factor on both ends with shooting range to the arc and quick bounce to protect the rim defensively." - Hazelton Camp - Event Recap New England Recruiting Report | Friday, August 12th, 2016

Rivals Nation @rivalsnation 1h1 hour ago Congrats to Akok Akok & Tanahj Pettway who picked offers from Iona tonight. @_akok1 and @tanahj_x3 on the rise.
Tanahj Pettway -5'11" G - transferring from Central Catholic (MA) to Putnam Science (CT) and reclassifying to 2019.
"Tanahj Pettway, Putnam Science – Stylistically, he’s different from many of the other guards in the gym. He may not be big or long, but he’s skilled and very smooth. Pettway can beat you from three, slither himself into the lane and show good touch and instincts in the paint." - Hazelton Camp - Event Recap New England Recruiting Report | Friday, August 12th, 2016
"Tanahj Pettway (Mass Rivals, 2019)- A skilled scorer, Pettway is a key cog for the Rivals 10th grade team. His ability to score on all three levels on a consistent basis is a big reason for their success." - ZG Finals - Day 1 Recap by Luc Smith | Sunday, June 12th, 2016

Jordan Wright - 6'4" SG - Kid has a great handle, is smooth getting to the hoop and has good body control. Scores while absorbing contact. Changes pace very well and shakes defenders with ease. Good defender with good court vision. Averaged 19 points, nine rebounds and four assists per game as a freshman. Needs to work on his 3 pt shooting but should keep getting better as he is young. Offers from Virgina Tech, Southern, TCU and SFA.
