Below, some recruiting news from around the Ivy League...Ty Watson, a 6'5" wing from Toronto was a red-shirt last season at New Mexico State. According to the Las Cruces Sun News, the only other Division I schools that recruited him a year ago were Cornell and Chicago State.
Jeremy Jeffers, a 6'6" wing from Greenfield High School in Wilson, North Carolina committed to Drake over offers from Davidson, Bucknell, Harvard, Auburn, South Carolina, Virginia Commonwealth and UNC Wilmington.

If you are a high school basketball player and you have aspirations of playing in the Ivy League, enrollment at Northfield Mount Hermon School in Northfield, Massachusetts might be your best avenue to achieve your goal. During 2009-2010, the NMH Hoggers will have eight (8) former players on Ivy League rosters, including Cornell's Pete McMillan. They will be joined by a pair of new Harvard recruits (Matt Brown and Laurent Rivard) for the 2010-2011 season, raising NMH's alumni total in the Ivy League to nine (9). Rivard committed to Harvard earlier this week over offers from all eight Ivy schools. And we should add that Brown University already has a commitment from NMH's Joe Sharkey for the 2011-2012 season, so the Northfield Mount Hermon pipeline is in no jeopardy of ending.
