An extended “dead” period in NCAA recruiting during the covid-19 shutdown did not stand in the way of the Western PA Bruins girls AAU basketball program.
The Bruins continue to be a prime target for Division I college coaches who know where to take their scholarship offers.
Those offers have been coming in at a torrid pace.
Since mid-July, several Bruins who double as WPIAL standouts have received numerous opportunities to play at the D-I level.
Here are the players and their most recent offers:
• Ashleigh Connor (Jr., Mt. Lebanon) — Cleveland State, Oakland.
• Kaili Doctor (So., Pine-Richland) — Marshall.
• Eve Fiala (So., Indiana) — Minnesota.
• Dacia Lewandowski (So., North Catholic) — Marshall, Toledo, Akron.
