We had been putting the word out to schools that this unheralded player from Harcum Junior College was a sleeper that you didn’t want to pass on. The schools that saw him workout started to take notice and the offers started to come last month.

Berend called me last night and told me he was on his way back from the University of Maryland. He also informed me that he gave his commitment to them to make it official. We are very happy to see Berend make the commitment and look forward to seeing him in that Terrapin Red. The 6′ 10″ multifunctional forward can step out and hit jumpers, rebound and block shots. He is also very athletic and gets up and down the court very well.
