Not sure if this has been posted or if anybody cares, but it comes from yesterday's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Swiech chooses Akron
Steve Swiech, a 6-foot-9 senior basketball player at Elizabeth Forward, made a verbal commitment to the University of Akron Thursday. He had offers from St. Bonaventure and Holy Cross. He will sign a letter of intent with the Zips during the NCAA's early signing period in November.
Swiech is projected to be one of the top players in the WPIAL next season. He averaged 26.8 points and 12 rebounds a game as a junior before a right foot injury near the end of the season put him on the sideline. He had surgery on the foot and has not played since. He hopes to be able to play with the Pittsburgh JOTS at the AAU national tournament next month.
Swiech and his parents visited Akron Thursday. It was his third visit to the school. The Zips offered him a scholarship last summer.
