A look at Penn State men’s basketball’s highest-ranked 2022 recruiting class

In Micah Shrewsberry’s first full offseason as Penn State’s head coach, his eye for talent was put on full display.

The 2022 recruiting class is the highest ranked in program history and ranks 35th in the country, according to 247Sports.

In the wake of John Harrar and Sam Sessoms' departure from the program, along with five other returning players gone by the end of the 2023-24 season, it’s a necessity to build for the future.

The highly ranked group will hope to keep up the momentum from the 2021-22 Nittany Lions, who made a run to the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals.
