2019 recruiting is here! Today your Villanova Wildcats extended a pair of offers to Ranney School (N.J.) teammates Bryan Antoine and Scottie Lewis, per MADE Hoops' Pat Lawless.
Villanova & Florida have offered '19 guard Bryan Antoine & '19 wing Scottie Lewis from Team Rio (NJ).

The high school teammates also play together on the Under Armour circuit for Team Rio, and have been getting rave reviews while playing up a year so far this spring. Antoine is currently fourth in scoring on the circuit at 17.8 ppg and in three-pointers made through two sessions, backing up his reputation as one of the best scorers in his class. Lewis is tied for second in blocks per game (1.8) as a guard and is known as an elite above-the-rim athlete.
Both players visited campus this fall for Hoops Mania, and so it should come as no surprise to see Villanova hop in the mix with an offer. There's a long way to go in these recruitments, but you'd expect the Wildcats to stay involved given their proximity and the program's recent success.
