Nelly Cummings to visit Mount this weekend

Point Guard Nelly Cummings, a 2017 recruit, is expected to take an unofficial visit to Mt. St. Mary's this weekend. Cummings from Pittsburgh plays his high school ball for Lincoln Park High School, one of the top AA schools in Pennsylvania.

Cummings holds an offer from Cornell and his Twitter feed shows pictures from a recent visit to Indiana. He also has interest from Pitt, Duquesne and Princeton.

As the video shows below he is a big talent and he would fit perfectly into the Mount Mayhem style.

About theMountFanBlog

The Mount FanBlog is hosted by Ryan Raffensperger, a sports fan of all types and a Mount Basketball fan forever.

Raffensperger has loved the Mount as long as he can remember, which basically means 1981 - and remembers the true #GloryDays of Memorial Gym. He remembers the players from those days to the athletes who play at Knott Arena today. And if it's a #MountMayhem day, it's going to be a good day.

He holds a Syracuse University degree in broadcast journalism. He has broadcast high school, college & minor league levels of all sports in his past and regularly covered high school football for his hometown paper. So the blog does make a little sense.

Raffensperger worked professionally as a CPA for many years, but the chronic inflammatory immune disease Sarcoidosis made it impossible to continue that in a manner he found acceptable. Since then, he has spent more time around the Mount St. Mary's basketball program and values Coach Dan Englestad, his staff, and the players' impact on him. The blog was much more active, but the advent of Twitter (follow @themountfanblog) has made writing a little less important. But he hopes that the balance swings back in favor of more traditional content soon.
