    Class of 2025 prospect Lino Mark has recently completed two official visits to USC (Sept. 6-8) and Seton Hall (Sept. 9-11). He broke down both of his trips to ZAGSBLOG via text:

    USC: “The USC visit was a lot of fun and a great way to communicate and feel out the team and the staff. [Eric] Musselman’s message was that he believes I fit into what he’s building at USC.

    Seton Hall: “Seton Hall was a great experience to feel out the team and environment. The staff does a great job already to make it known that they want me and see me to have a very successful career there. Only great vibes from Seton Hall and much respect to the coaching staff and coach Shaheen [Holloway] for the love they gave my family and I.”

    Mark — the 6-foot-2, 170-pound guard from Notre Dame Sherman Oaks (CA) and the Oakland Soldiers AAU program — is currently down to eight schools. LMU, Rutgers, Seton Hall, TCU, UCSB, USC, Utah and West Virginia made the final cut.

    He has taken an official visit to LMU (Aug. 25-26) and visits to all of his other finalists are set in stone. Mark’s upcoming schedule is as follows: Rutgers (Sept. 18-19), West Virginia (Sept. 20-22), Utah (Sept. 27-29), TCU (Oct. 4-6) and UCSB (Oct. 8-10).

    Mark previously broke down some of those options to ZAGSBLOG at Peach Jam.

    Mark is ranked the No. 123 overall prospect by 247Sports and the No. 13 player in the state of California. He attends Notre Dame Sherman Oaks in Los Angeles and will play there with 2026’s No. 1 prospect Tyran Stokes next season.

    “I’m hoping we can win Peach and then win State,” Mark said at Peach Jam. “Thats a big deal.”

    The Soldiers ended up falling to Nightrydas Elite, 71-62, in the Peach championship game. For the tournament, Mark averaged 5.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists while playing 17.1 minutes per contest.
