Conner, a dynamic lead guard known for his ability to get into the paint off the bounce, took full advantage of the first few months of his post-graduate year at Putnam Science. After impressing in fall open gyms, he recently finalized his plans for next year with a commitment to Sacred Heart University. A crafty guard with great floor vision, Conner has a college ready body and will look to contribute right away as Sacred Heart makes the transition from the NEC to the MAAC.
Defty has made an immediate impact since coming to the states for his post-graduate year at St. Thomas More. After receiving an offer from Boston University in mid-October, he made his commitment to the Terriers official a few weeks ago. Defty, a true 7-footer, has been a great addition for STM where his presence in the paint, both as a post scorer and rim protector, has stood out.
Sidney Hall

After a strong summer, that included breakout performances at NERR’s Elite 75 and Hoop Mountain’s New England Fall Showcase, Hall proved to be one of the more highly sought after wings amongst Division III programs in New England. He came off the board yesterday with the pledge to Endicott College. Hall should be able to make an immediate impact in the CCC as a versatile wing that can defend multiple positions and initiate offense in transition.
Middleton, a New Hampshire native, made his return to New England this fall when he enrolled at Brewster Academy. The return to New England will last more than just one year though, as Middleton recently announced that he will attend the University of New Hampshire next fall. He should make an immediate impact for the Wildcats with his ability as a rim-runner, post defender, and scoring threat off the bounce.

Scandura recently finalized his plans with a commitment to Wheaton College (MA). A good sized forward, he has the ability to score over either shoulder in the post, but also proved this fall to be a legimate shooting threat from behind the arc. He should be a good fit with the Lyons and has the chance to make an impact in the NEWMAC as a floor spacing forward.
