    U8ZCkEBE_400x400Crisshawn Clark, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Cañada College in San Mateo, Calif., committed to Pittsburgh on Monday, he announced on Twitter.

    A native of Ohio, Clark also had offers from Nevada, St. Mary’s and Oregon, among others.

    “Crisshawn chose Pitt because he really felt at home with Coach [Jamie] Dixon, the staff and players,” his coach, Mike Reynoso, told SNY.tv. “He felt he would have a great opportunity to be successful at Pitt, and play in the best basketball conference in America — the ACC.”

    He averaged 15 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists last season, while shooting 35.6 percent from beyond the arc.

    “Crisshawn will bring a lot to the Pitt program, he is a stat stuffer,” Reynoso said. “He scores it from everywhere on the floor, has great vision, defends and rebounds well. He is truly an elite guard who is well-rounded.”

    He joins point guard Justice Kithcart and power forward Corey Manigault in Pitt’s 2016 class.
