Friars to Receive Official Visit from 2016 PG Justice Kithcart

It’s fair to say that Justice Kithcart‘s recruitment has taken off recently. At this time last year Kithcart’s offer list consisted of only Northern Arizona. The Lumberjacks play in the Big Sky conference. Kithcart has received 10 offers since the first evaluation period in April and 6 of those 10 came from school’s that would be considered high major, including the Friars. Ed Cooley is casting a wide net in his attempt to replace the dynamic Kris Dunn next season and Kithcart likes what Cooley has been saying enough to include Providence as one of the 5 schools that will get an official visit from the North Carolina native.

No date has been set for Kithcart’s visit to Friartown. The other 4 schools that will get an official visit are Creighton, Memphis (September 25th), Pittsburgh (September 18th) and TCU. Kitchart announced this list on wiseeyesports.com. Kithcart plays at Virginia Episcopal during the high school season and ran with Team Loaded VA on the adidas grassroots circuit. He was on the team that defeated Wenyen Gabriel and the Mass Rivals on ESPNU at the adidas Uprising Summer Championship. Kithcart scored 16 points, dished out 6 assists and pulled down 4 boards in that game. For that 7 game event he averaged 11.4 points/game, 6.4 assists/game and 3.6 rebounds/game and 1.3 steals/game in 20.7 minutes/game. He started all 7 contests.

Providence is also recruiting a few other guards in 2016. Shamorie Ponds visited Friartown last weekend though he seems to be leaning towards St. John’s with a possible decision coming soon. Maliek White is scheduled to visit Providence the first weekend of October and Jalen Harris on October 9th. Interestingly, Pittsburgh is recruiting White pretty heavily and he is also scheduled to visit there on September 18th. The Friars are in the mix for a lot of guards in 2016 and it will be an interesting next few months leading up to the early signing period to see who lands in Friartown after the dust settles on these official visits.
