Men's Basketball Verbal

 The Falcons have a verbal commit for men's basketball '22.  

His name is Willie Lightfoot.  He is a 6'0" G who is from Niagara Falls, NY.  He is highly recruited.  Rivals has him ranked as the #38 PG in the country and the Nagara Gazette reports offers from  Oregon, Alabama, Minnesota, Marquette, Buffalo, Niagara, Canisius, Youngstown State and Stony Brook.

He was a metro player of the year in Niagara as a FR.  He then played at the Sunrise Christian Academy, a top prep school program in Kansas.  Next year he will finish HS at the Good Better Best Academy in Durham, NC.

Lightfoot's Coach told the Buffalo News that defense is probably Lightfoot's strength, which  made BG a good fit.  He also said that Lightfoot like the idea of being coached by a PG.

Welcome to the Falcons, Willie.
