While a number of players from across took on the field at several tournaments from coast to coast, Emmanuel Negedu decided he was ready to end the drawn out recruiting process and find a home.

The 6-foot-6, 225-pound forward from Brewster Academy (N.H.) verbally committed to Arizona on Sunday.
The Wildcats made a strong push and was able to have him on campus recently and the trip west sealed the deal.
"I had a good idea when I was on the visit," Negedu said. "I liked the coaches and people there and the weather and school. I had a lot of schools calling and texting me. I wanted to end it because I like Arizona."
Negedu said he also considered Tennessee, Kansas, Louisville, Florida and Indiana.
Negedu helped his Indiana Elite/Team Indiana team win the Kingwood Classic last weekend in Houston.
