Orlando Sanchez, a 6-foot-8 JUCO All-American forward from Monroe (N.Y.) College, has narrowed his list and will select a school in the spring.
Sanchez will be eligible for Division 1 in 2012 and holds offers from UMass, Providence, LSU, Rhode Island, Florida International and Baylor, according to Monroe assistant Brock Erickson.
He played on the Dominican Republic National Team under Kentucky coach John Calipari and is interested in the Wildcats, but does not currently hold an offer.
“Orlando is a very athletic player who is a tenacious rebounder and shot-blocker,” Erickson told SNY.tv. “He can take over a game on the defensive end. He has a great work ethic and is all about the team and winning.”
Monroe is ranked No. 5 nationally by The Sporting News after finishing No. 3 in the country last year (31-5).
