Over the weekend, Queens University learned that they had landed some great future talent.

Not only did they land James Madison transfer Michael Fowler but on Sunday, 6’4 2020 Kalib Mathews called up the coaching staff to let them know that he would be committing as well.

On Sunday, Mathews announced his decision, saying:

“First off, I would like to thank God for blessing me with this opportunity. I also would like to thank Coach Stanley and Coach Marshall for always believing in me and giving me the chance to play with their programs. I would like to thank my friends and family that supported me throughout this process. Last but not least, I would like to thank my mom and grandparents for making me the person I am today and helping me on my journey… With that being said, I am excited to announce I have committed to Queens University.”

Mathews has been a regular this summer with Phenom Hoops and has always caught the eyes of our scouts.

“It is his smooth nature, his effortless attempt to drop 25 with explosion, stuff off the bounce and as one of the top catch and shoot guys in the state.

Matthews scoring package is extremely translatable, so much so that whichever D1 school gets him could have a 1st team guy by the time he graduates.” – Jamie Shaw
