Freddie Riley, a 6-foot-5, 175-pound shooting guard from Chatham (VA) Hargrave Military Academy, has UMass at the top of his list but is also considering South Florida, Virginia Commonwealth and Baylor.
“He had a very good visit to UMass” the weekend of Sept. 12, Hargrave coach Kevin Keatts said. “Obviously, I think they’re at the top of his list. He’s going to take a visit to South Florida (Oct. 4) and he may take a visit to VCU this weekend. He may also take a visit to Baylor which has not been set.”
Riley, a native of Ocala, Fla., is a scoring guard who would add automatic offense to whichever school he picks.
“He’s a 6-5 two/three that can really score the basketball,” Keatts said. “Athletic, long, can get to the rim. He can really shoot the basketball.”
Also at Hargrave, 6-8, 215-pound PF Chris Braswell visited Maryland this past weekend after seeing Xavier two weeks ago.
“He had a good visit (to Maryland),” Keatts said. “He got back (Sunday) evening. I talked to him briefly on the visit and he was enjoying it thusfar.
“He’s going to Indiana this weekend, and on Oct. 4 he’s going to go to Virginia Tech. His last visit will be with Charlotte Oct. 18 for Midnight Madness.”
Keatts said Braswell, a former Georgetown commit, will likely decide from that group of schools this fall.
“He’s taking his time with it,” he said. “He wants to take it all in and try to make the right decision.”
