Harding player commits to YSU

WARREN — Steve Arnold says it’s long overdue that a player from either of the Warren high schools has been recruited by Youngstown State’s men’s basketball program — and followed through with at least a verbal commitment.

That would be Sheldon Brogdan, a 6-0 shooting guard for Warren Harding, who gave a verbal commitment to YSU on Sunday.

“It’s win-win,” the Harding coach said of Brogdon’s choice that would give YSU coach Jerry Slocum a lift.

“I’m pleased with his decision,” Arnold said. “They’ve been recruiting him since he was a sophomore. “I think they did great job.”
