OVERTIME GAMES NA MINNESOTA BASKETBALL SIGNING DAY University of Minnesota head men’s basketball coach Richard Pitino announced in November the addition of future Gophers Treyton Thompson (Alexandria, Minn./La Lumiere School (Ind.) and Kenny Pohto (Stockholm, Sweden/Sunrise Christian Academy (Kan.). Each signed their National Letter of Intent to join the men’s basketball program for the 2021-22 season. The Gophers have now signed at least one four-star prospect in each of the last seven years.
TREYTON THOMPSON 6-11 • ALEXANDRIA, MINN. • LA LUMIERE SCHOOL
Thompson is a four-star recruit and the No. 22 center nationally according to ESPN. He spent the first two years of his high school career at Alexandria High School, averaging 15.8 points and 8.5 rebounds per game as a sophomore, before transferring to La Lumiere School where the Lakers are ranked third heading in to the season. On the AAU circuit, Thompson has played for D1 Minne- sota, which is rated among the top programs in the country. PITINO ON THOMPSON: “Treyton Thompson was a very important recruit for us. It’s always huge to get one of the best players out of the state of Minnesota. Treyton has the size and skill to make an impact at the Big Ten level. He understands the value of playing for his home state and wants to be a part of special in the Maroon and Gold. Treyton will make an immediate impact on and off the court.”
KENNY POHTO 6-11 • STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN • SUNRISE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY
Pohto is a four-star recruit and the No. 23 center in the country according to ESPN. He shot 53 per- cent on his 3-pointers for the season and was able to guard multiple positions, including opposing team guards.
