Huge end to weekend for Harvard
To say the least, the weekend ended on a high note for Tommy Amaker and his staff at Harvard. The Crimson landed not just the shooter they coveted, but a four-star big man
The day started with a commitment from 6-foot-5 shooting guard Andre Chatfield.

A three-star prospect from Norcross (Ga.) High, Chatfield showed time and again throughout the summer that he can shoot the pill. The slender wing has deep range, a quick trigger and plenty of confidence.
He will need to get a bit stronger, but he projects as a multi-year starter and shot maker from the perimeter.
Late Sunday night, Amaker and his staff got even bigger news when four-star center Chris Egi committed.
A Canadian who was originally a member of the class of 2015, Egi is now at Montverde (Fla.) Academy and figures to be a factor in the 2014 Rivals150 (his switch from 2015 to 2014 came in between the ranking updates so he is currently unranked as a four-star).
Egi is an athlete with size who runs the court very well. He will protect the rim, has good hands and soft touch in the paint and his bodytype will allow him to add a bunch of muscle in a college weight room.
Under Amaker, Harvard recruiting has been building and Sunday's newest additions prove again that his ability to attract talent is for real.
