LMU recruiting two point guards

With the release of Edgar Garibay from the men's basketball team's roster, the Lions now have one more recruiting spot open for next season. LMU has secured Taj Adams, Tobe Okafor, and future star Nick Stover but are definitely in need of a point guard to eventually take over for Anthony Ireland. It seems the team feels the same way, as the Lions have been recruiting two different Class of 2012 PGs.

As mentioned on the website The Recruiting Scoop, the Lions have thrown their hat in the ring for 6'6" point guard Amedeo Della Valle from Findaly Prep in Nevada. The talented guard has received offers from a number of high-profile programs, so it is not likely for LMU to land him, but the website does say that the Lions have made an offer. However, so has Gonzaga, UConn, Saint Mary's, Arizona, UCLA and more.

Scout.com is reporting that LMU has also given an offer to Keywhon Powns, a 6'3" guard from Westchester. He is also being looked at by San Diego State, Marquette and Florida State, but has only received offers from LMU and Cal State Northridge.
