LA Salle continues to load up for its future, securing commitments from two young forwards in the high school level.
University of the East's CJ Austria and Perpetual's Emman Galman have signified their intention to take their act to Taft for their collegiate careers, SPIN.ph has learned.
The two young studs have met with Green Archers coach Derrick Pumaren together with the team management on Tuesday, locking them for UAAP Season 84.
Both Austria and Galman have one more playing year left in their high school careers.
Austria is a 6-foot-3 forward and was a revelation for the Junior Red Warriors this past UAAP Season 82.
He averaged 17.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.0 steals, and 1.2 blocks as the lone bright spot for a forgettable 4-10 run for UE last season.
Meanwhile, the 6-foot-3 Galman was the main man for the Junior Altas this past NCAA Season 95 where they finished eighth with their 7-11 record.
He posted 17.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.2 steals last season for Perpetual.
Their arrival bodes well for La Salle, which is also set to welcome Letran stud and former Gilas Youth member Joshua Ramirez to its fort.
Tiebreaker Times was the first to report on the development.
