The Notre Dame Fighting Irish basketball team picked up its second commitment in the 2020 class in two weeks, as Bergen Catholic center Matt Zona verbally pledged to the Fighting Irish this evening on Twitter.
Zona, a 3-star center from Oradell, New Jersey, joins 3-star power forward Elijah Taylor, who committed to the Irish 11 days ago.
Zona is the 267th-ranked prospect overall according to 247sports.com, and is considered a top-10 player in his class in the state of New Jersey. At 6’9” and 235 pounds, he is a strong big man prospect who can move well and shoot from the outside — particularly reminiscent of former Irish captain Rob Kurz.
