Duquesne trying to land SG Rene Castro

Duquesne is trying to land shooting guard Rene Castro of Milton, Mass. for next season and he is on campus today and tomorrow visiting, according to a source.

Castro, 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, was the Massachusetts player of the year at Worcester Academy and is considered a 3-star recruit, which would be another score for Jim Ferry who got a verbal commitment from power forward Isaiah Watkins last week. (also considered a 3-star recruit.)

ESPN has Castro listed as the No. 44 shooting guard for 2013 out of 50.

He scored 23.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists and had 1.6 steals a game a year ago.
