Head Coach Bob Rukavina and the Pitt-Johnstown men's basketball program have added four players for the 2017-18 season, including teammates and Pennsylvania First-Team All-State selection Drew Magestro and Third-Team All-State choice Marcin Wiszomirski from Kennedy Catholic High School.
 
"We think we have a diverse group of guys," Coach Rukavina said. "We brought in two guys with winning experience in Drew Magestro and Marcin Wiszomirski, who both won the PIAA Class A championship a year ago. Darrell Brock is a talented, athletic guard, who will redshirt in 17-18, but we feel he has a bright future ahead of him. Lastly, Steve Votodian is a tough point guard who has really impressed us with his work ethic and desire to improve daily."
