A local recruiting war broke out this summer as Seton Hall and Rutgers both made recruiting Christ The King (N.Y.) guard Jose Alvarado a major priority, and both schools made his final list of schools.
But unfortunately for the Pirates and Scarlet Knights, Alvarado went with option number three.
Alvarado, a point guard out of the class of 2017, announced on Thursday that he had committed to Georgia Tech. The announcement came during a ceremony in the gymnasium of the Queens school. Alvarado was last season's New York City Catholic High School Player of the Year.
