Lincoln Park’s L.A. Pratt scores past Hickory’s Tyler Mele (10) and Jackson Pryts during a PIAA Class 4A state semifinal March 22.
Lincoln Park basketball standout LA Pratt will play his college ball close to home.
The 6-foot-5 point guard announced his verbal commitment to Duquesne via his social media accounts Tuesday afternoon.
Pratt averaged 13 points per game for Lincoln Park last season, helping the Leopards to a 19-6 record, a WPIAL Class 4A championship and a trip to the PIAA semifinals. Pratt scored 10 points in the WPIAL title game, a 66-57 victory over North Catholic.
Duquesne was the first NCAA Division I school to offer Pratt a scholarship. Pratt announced the offer after a visit to campus in August.
