A player that we feel should have colleges calling his phone on a daily basis, he put his team on his back to lead them to an upset win over FA which is currently one of the favorites to compete for a state title. He scored 22 Points but more importantly, he controlled the tempo of the team offense, and made big time plays down the stretch.

He took the floor for PFHS for the first time in late December and already seems to be finding his way with his new squad. He has the ability to make an impact on games inside and outside the paint which was on display in their matchup with Fairmont HS.

Brings plenty of the traits that you love to see from a Point Guard and his performance on Friday night proved it once again.

On Weds night his team matched up ECHS and he put together one of his better overall performances of the season. He accounted for 23 of the 62 points for his team while also pulling down 10 rebounds in the double-digit win.
