Navy basketball set to honor four remaining seniors

Hasan Abdullah, George Kiernan and Ryan Pearson took their official visits to the Naval Academy on the same weekend.

As they prepared to depart Annapolis, the three men’s basketball recruits exchanged cell phone numbers and commenced a group chat.

That Monday, Abdullah sent Kiernan and Pearson a message stating that he planned to verbally commit to the Navy. On Tuesday, Pearson replied that he had also decided to attend the academy.

Kiernan was contemplating whether to join the parade and got a friendly nudge from Abdullah via text.

“George, if you come to Navy I’ll feed you the ball so much you’ll shoot until your arm falls off,” Abdullah wrote.
