Meiga, who received an offer from Penn State in May, made his decision after a campus visit last weekend. He also visited the Nittany Lions on June 9.
The 6-foot-4, 190-pound rising senior had 17 Division I offers, including ones from Baylor, Cincinnati, Syracuse, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia Tech and West Virginia.
He received a majority of his offers over a two-month stretch in the spring after opening eyes at a couple of camps in the U.S.
Meiga’s commitment brings Penn State’s 2020 class total to 21.
