PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – Pitt continues to rebuild its roster, so a quick check of where they sit on the day of the national championship.
Monday the Panthers added a second player from Iowa State, 6’5”, 200-pound guard Nojus Indrusaitis. He was the seventh highest-ranked signee in Iowa State history (understanding the rating system only started a couple decades ago). He was a consensus top 100 recruit after being named the New Hampshire Gatorade Player of the Year playing at Brewster Academy. He is originally from Chicago.
