The Binghamton University men’s basketball team added another recruit to the class of 2013 on Tuesday night as 5-foot-10, 175-pound point guard Marlon Beck gave an oral commitment to coach Tommy Dempsey.

Beck, a senior at Maret School in Washington, D.C., said he committed following a win against Potomac on Tuesday night that both Dempsey and assistant coach Ben Luber attended.
“I felt like I wanted to make the commitment right now because I felt like it was the time,” said Beck, a resident of Bowie, Md.

 

Beck, who averages 13.8 points and six assists per game this season, was an All-Mid-Atlantic Conference first team selection as a junior. He earned Most Outstanding Player honors at both the Bishop Walker Invitational Tournament and the Boby Miller Bulldog Holiday Classic.

“Marlon is a tough, tough high-energy point guard that pushes the ball from baseline to baseline faster than most guards in the area,” Maret fourth-year coach Garrett O’Donnell said. “Marlon’s biggest strength is his will to win, and you can’t really measure that.”
