Aras Baskauskas Applies To Yale
For Early Admission--(Nov. 16, 1998)

Aras Baskauskas (6'-2" Sr. PG/SG) from Santa Monica High, has taken three official visits so far, to Columbia, Yale and UC Riverside.  He really liked Yale and has decided to apply for early admission, which does not bind him to attend, but certainly increases his chances of getting in.  If he doesn't get in then look for him to commit sometime in the spring, and UC Riverside, which has signed Mike Zepeda (6'-9" Sr. C) from Century High in Santa Ana and Chris Clark (6'-6" Sr. SG/SF) from Glendora, will go after him very hard.

Aras was also pretty excited about his Santa Monica team this year. "We've got a couple of really big guys from the football team and I think we could surprise some people," Aras told us tonight.  In addition to himself and Jacoby Atako (6'-0" Sr. PG),  Santa Monica will have  Jason Speciner a 6'-7" football player and Ryan Price a 6'-6" swingman.
