A week-long recruiting shutdown starts Monday for NCAA women’s basketball coaches, but North Catholic teammates Tess Myers and Kylee Lewandowski each pulled in an offer just before the deadline.

Myers announced an offer Saturday from Temple, and Lewandowski added Fairfield on Friday.

They rank among the WPIAL’s top juniors.

A 5-foot-10 guard, Myers has more than a dozen Division 1 offers, a list that already includes Charlotte, Colorado, LaSalle, St. Joseph’s, UNC Wilmington, William & Mary and others.

She averaged a team-best 15.4 points for North Catholic (26-4), which won the WPIAL Class 4A title and finished as the state runner-up. Lewandowski, a 6-foot guard/forward, averaged 15 points.

Lewandowski also lists offers from Xavier, Niagara, Quinnipiac, Marshall and Bucknell.
