Donnie Hale and Jacob Lawson have signed with No. 14 Purdue.
The pair of 6-foot-8 forwards will be eligible next season.
Hale averaged 18.0 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.3 blocks last season. He led New Albany (Ind.) to a No. 2 ranking in the final Class 4A poll and was a first-team Associated Press all-state selection. He now is enrolled at Bridgton Academy, a prep school in Maine.
Purdue coach Matt Painter calls Lawson one of the nation's top recruits at his position. The senior from Reidsville, N.C., averaged 14.5 points, 12.5 rebounds and 5.5 blocks per game last season at Oak Ridge Military Academy.
