Long Island Lutheran swingman Brandon Wilson,

strong around the hoop and capable of pulling up from

long-range, has seen interest from a number of low

Division I programs, as well as hearing from a member

of the Big East, of late.

The 6'3'' 185 lb Wilson recently heard from Seton

Hall, and a member of Louis Orr's staff will be on

hand Saturday to evaluate Wilson as Lutheran takes on

Upper Room. Other schools that have expressed interest

include Wagner, Maryland-Eastern Shore, Hartford, and

Northeastern. Wagner has offered. Wilson

was supposed to take an official visit to

Maryland-Eastern Shore recently, but because of a

conflict with a game, was unable to. He expects to

reschedule that visit.

Wilson, who is averaging 16.5 points and 11 rebounds

for coach Ronn Hall, is active around the hoop, able

to corral caroms with a solid frame and good strength,

and is capable of sliding out to the perimeter and

knocking down the long-range jumper. His shooting

acumen and strength suggest that Wilson might be able

to make the transition to the two and three slots and

the college level.

Wilson, who attended the Adidas ABCD camp this

summer and played with Riverside Church, is in good

shape academically, carrying an 81 average. He has

scored 930 on the SAT, and plans on taking the test

again.

Wilson's father, Benjamin Wilson, was a prep star at

Simeon High School in Chicago in the mid-eighties. One

of the top high school prospects in the country,

Benjamin Wilson was tradgically killed during his

senior year.
