Kyron Cartwright spent the weekend of March 28th-30th in Providence on an official visit and gave Ed Cooley his pledge after returning to the West Coast and thinking it over. Cartwright was granted his release from Loyola Marymount after head coach, Max Good was let go.
Cartwright is a 5’11 165 lb left handed lead guard from Compton, CA who will join the Friars 2014 recruiting class and add much needed depth to the point guard position. With the graduation of Bryce Cotton, the only point guard on the roster for 2014-2015 was going to be Kris Dunn coming off a 2nd surgery on his right shoulder so it was no surprise that Ed Cooley indicated they would be looking to add 2 guards for next season. Cartwright will not be eligible to sign a National Letter of Intent because he had previously signed one with Loyola Marymount. He will likely sign some kind of athletic aid agreement with Providence.
Now that the conference tournaments are over and the dust has settled after the NCAA Tournament selections have been made, the coaching carousel has begun. There have already been a few guys that got the axe including Steve Donohue at Boston College. But one particular coaching change of interest to PC in terms of recruiting is Max Good being let go by Loyola Marymout University. Because of this, a 2014 PG has returned to the market after getting a full release.
Kyron Cartwright is a 5’11 165 lb left handed lead guard from Compton, CA. When he decided on a school in November, he picked LMU over Grand Canyon, a for-profit school where Dan Majerle is the head coach in their first season going from Division II to Divison I this season. Cartwight’s brother, Bryce, played his last 2 years at Iowa after transferring in from a JC. According to Scout.com’s Evan Daniels, KC has early interest from Providence after getting his full release on Tuesday. He wants to make a pretty quick decision and is hoping to get away from home this time:
