<p class="text-gray-700">Doumbia ended his recruitment with a commitment to the <strong><em>University of Massachusetts Amherst</em></strong>. A native of Mali, Doumbia has seen tremendous growth in his game since arriving in the states. He's a physical post presence that does a great job of using his base to carve out space, rolls hard to the rim off of screens, and tries to dunk everything he gets his hands on. He has a high ceiling defensively with his ability to move his feet laterally and contest shots at the rim. He's still just tapping into his potential and should continue to see great growth in his game once he gets accustomed to a D1 strength and conditioning program. This is a recruiting win for <em><strong>UMass Amherst</strong></em>, as with time, Doumbia could develop into a high level post in the <em>Atlantic-10</em>.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Galarraga came off the board when he announced that he'll attend the <em><strong>University of Southern Maine</strong></em>. A two-time state champion at <em>South Portland</em>, Galarraga is a versatile forward that leaves his mark on the game in a variety of ways. Defensively, he's capable of guarding on the perimeter in switches, makes plays from the weak side as a rim protector, and can defend in the post with his length and athleticism. Offensively, he has the ability to knock down threes from the trailer position, can drive poor closeouts on off of shot fakes, and finishes strong at the rim. He's a quality recruit for <strong><em>Southern Maine</em></strong> that has the potential to grow into a valuable, floor spacing forwarding in the <em>Little East</em>.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Vanheyningen made his college plans official with a commitment to <strong><em>Emmanuel College</em></strong>. A key piece on <em>Charlestown's</em> run to the state championship, Vanheyningen is a solid athlete on the wing that should only continue to get better in the coming years. He has good positional size and length, is a disruptive defender with his activity level in passing lanes, and can really get after it on the offensive glass. He does a great job of running hard in transition, can space the floor as a shooter in catch and shoot situations, and does a good job of finishing strong at the rim. It's a recruiting win for <strong><em>Emmanuel</em></strong>, keeping a local product close to home, particularly this one, as Vanheyningen could eventually become one of the top wings in the <em>GNAC</em>.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Reeves finalized his plans for the next four years with a commitment to <strong><em>Tufts University</em></strong>. A physical and athletic presence at the forward position, Reeves generated scholarship level interest during his recruitment before commiting to the Jumbos. He's an above the rim athlete that also has the ability to consistently knock down shots from the perimeter. He can play in ball screens as either a rim roller or spacer, is a strong straight line driver, and has a nose for the ball on the offensive glass. He's a versatile defender that moves his feet well and should be able to play in multiple ball screen coverages, while also providing rim protection as the back line of defense. He profiles as an instant impact recruit for <strong><em>Tufts</em></strong> and could quickly become one of the better stretch forwards in the <em>NESCAC</em>. </p>
