SINA TALKS RUTGERS
Jaren Sina, a 6-foot 2013 point guard from Gill St. Bernard’s, visited Rutgers unofficially last week.
“My visit to Rutgers was amazing,” Sina said. “I really enjoyed the campus and the upcoming facilities that are in the process of being built. Coach Jim Carr has been watching me play for a while and has shown a lot of interest in the way I play the game of basketball. I met Coach [Mike] Rice for the first time and I really enjoyed talking with him. He is a very successful coach and I think he will bring the Rutgers basketball program to the level it needs to be at.”
Sina holds offers from Rutgers and La Salle and said he’s receiving interest from Syracuse, Notre Dame, St. John’s, Virginia Tech, URI, Vermont and James Madison.
