• Wake Forest adds wing from George Washington (on3.com subscription) — A familiar name for local prep hoops fans, Northfield Mount Hermon in Gill gets a nod as former NMH wing Vincent Chaudhri transfers from George Washington to Wake Forest. The 6-foot-7 New York native, who redshirted last season, becomes the Demon Deacons’ fifth transfer addition and still has four years of eligibility remaining.
