Those he’s not one of the more well-known prospects in the ACC’s incoming freshman class, Sylvester Ogbonda has a chance to be a real benefit to Georgia Tech on the boards. Ogbonda, who has attended high school in Maryland, has got good size and knows how to get in position for caroms off the glass.
