Joel Ofori
Joel Ofori
The 6-foot-7 forward has helped lead his team to the #1 seed in Manhattan alongside fellow under the radar 2024 Drew Parrish. Small schools would be wise to make them a priority in the coming weeks. Ofori has been one of the best rebounders in the PSAL all year, averaging 19 boards a game. He is a threat to score as well, as he’s second in scoring only to Parrish (Who’s averaging 22 in his own right). They’ll take on an upstart Gregorio Luperon school tomorrow afternoon to kick things off.
The Brandeis big man has been averaging a touch over 15 rebounds and still brings that toughness and motor that first allowed him to burst onto the scene when he first hit the high school ranks. Junior guard Christian Straugther will look to carry a majority of the offensive load for the Bulldogs. Overall they are a tough out for anyone and could be a dark horse in the coming days.
