In his sophomore season, Kenosha Bradford was far from being the best team in their conference. Last year, Racine Park went 12-2 in conference play and beat out Franklin, Racine Case, Racine Horlick, and Kenosha Indian Trail for the Southeast Conference championship. Kenosha Bradford was left kneeling at the throne of Park and all of their other close competitors. The Red Devils won just four conference games in the 2018-19 season. The Greg Leech coached team finished 7th in the conference, just ahead of bottom-dwelling Kenosha Tremper.
In the 2019-20 season, Bradford will look to make their exit from the basement of the Southeast Conference. Maxwell Glass, Da’Quantae Sawyer, Jashon Lee, and Tre Gordon will all return for another year of high school basketball. These prospects are poised to make big impacts, but Gordon may be best suited for a breakout campaign. If Kenosha Bradford is to make an honest charge at a conference title, Gordon will need to display his improvements and prove himself as one of the better guards in the 2021 class.
Many of Gordon’s improvements were made during the summer while playing with World Hoops Elite . Gordon spoke highly about his AAU experience.
“AAU was a movie. Everything was perfect. My coaches Monte Nelson and Dennis Coleman made me a better player on and off the court. They always gave me the best advice on how to improve my game. They’ve introduced my name to a few colleges who ended up being interested in me. My teammates always pushed me in practice and told me to be a bucket. AAU just changed my whole game and made me better than what I was last year.”
The guard jumped on Prep Hoops Wisconsin’s radar after impressing at a World Hoops camp that was held in July.
During that camp, his strengths were obvious. Gordon can score at an arresting pace and plays well on both ends of the court. He told PHW, “I can get a bucket and I can also lock someone up, I play with a chip on my shoulder every game.” The chip on his shoulder has now grown to its peak size after his name was nowhere to be found in Wisconsin’s 2021 class rankings.
Gordon says that Central Missouri and Eastern Washington have been showing some interest, despite his name being covered up by many other prospects.
