Bilal Dixon, a 6-8 forward at Queen of Peace School in New Jersey, has verbally committed to play at Providence College. Dixon will sign a letter-of-intent with the Friars in November and enroll next fall.
``I told them today, after school,'' Dixon said. ``I felt comfortable at Providencd. It's the right decision.''
Dixon spent two years at famed St. Anthony's High in his hometown of Jersey City, N.J. He moved to Queen of Peace last year and blossomed into a major D-1 target. He ended up selecting Providence over UNLV, St. John's, Siena and other colleges.
Dixon fills the only available scholarship Tim Welsh is scheduled to have for the 2008-09 season. More on the signing in Wednesday's Journal.
