Columbus (Oh.) Northland four-star small forward Seth Towns held offers from Iowa, Michigan, Ohio State, Purdue, Xavier and others. But when it came down to choosing where to continue his playing career, Towns opted for the Ivy League. 

Long known for its academics, Harvard has some basketball bona fides. The Crimson reached the past four NCAA Tournaments, winning opening round games in 2013 and 2014 and taking North Carolina to the wire this March. Towns’ commitment is another indication Harvard will continue to be a force on the hardwood.
