TexasHoops.com reports that 6'1" point guard, Chris Clement of Round Rock, Texas and Stony Point HS has interest in a couple Ivies. "I went out to Princeton a few days ago," said Clement. "It was beautiful out there and I really like the coaches and the campus. It has been stressed to me from my parents that academics need to be a top priority when looking into schools. My dad is a professor at The University of Texas and my mom is a middle school English teacher. So it is very important to me to go to a school with high academic standards." Princeton isn't the only Ivy school that he has visited. "I went to Cornell last year and they have said that they want me out on an official visit in the fall. Also, I was planning on going to Drake, but I should be going there too officially." Clement dalso said that Lehigh is a campus that he will try to visit before heading back to the Austin area. "I am also getting interest from SMU, Navy, and a little from Davidson, but not as much from them like the others. I feel that Princeton is real close to offering out of everyone recruiting me."
