The New York recruit led Harvard in points (18.8), rebounds (8.8), and steals (1.8) per game last season while shooting a career-high 47.3 percent from the floor. Ledlum earned First Team All-Ivy honors.
For the second straight season, Harvard finished with a .500 record (14-14) and 5-9 mark in conference play. The Crimson haven’t made the NCAA tournament since logging their fourth straight appearance in 2015.
Ledlum will now play for Rick Barnes on a Tennessee program that went 25-11 last season. The Volunteers also added South Carolina Upstate guard Jordan Gainey via the transfer portal this week and will welcome back last year’s leading scorer, Santiago Vescovi.
While Ledlum spent four years at Harvard, the Ivy League canceled the 2020-21 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The fifth-year senior has two years of eligibility remaining.
