<h2>October 11, 2015</h2><p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt"><a href="http://prephoopslouisiana.com/prospect-profiles-2016-lane-hartley"><strong>Lane Hartley</strong></a> is a prospect with potential to climb in the rankings for sure. He is a guard with a lot of skill to his game. He has played grassroots ball with Louisiana Select Team Millsap in the past. But in high school ball he is the go to guy.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">This will be a make or break year for Lane in terms of getting noticed by college coaches in order to move on and play at the next level. We asked Lane a few questions to see where he is on the court.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">What do you consider your strong points in your game? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“I consider one of the strong points in my game is my basketball iq and how I think things through. Taking care of the ball and not getting under pressure. My scoring ability and getting my teammates open for good shots opportunities.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">What colleges have reached out and expressed interest in you? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“Northwestern State University and Centenary College.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">During the game what do you try to focus on doing offensively? Defensively? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“Offensively I focus on getting my teammates open and letting them get good shot opportunities. I focus on getting myself good shots. I focus on making smart decisions and valuing the ball every possession. Defensively I focus on guarding the other team's best player and communicating with my teammates and leading by example.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">How do you believe your role will change this high school season for your team? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“I believe my role will change this high school season for my team because I will lead by example. I will never take a play off and keep my guys motivated to push themselves to keep playing hard. My team looks up to me and has a lot of confidence in me. They trust me with the ball in my hands and rely on me to make leader like decisions.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">How tall are you and what skills at that height do you think impressed college coaches this summer? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“I am 6'2. My ability to handle the ball like I do and attacking a defender off the dribble. My ability to shoot the ball like I do and to value the ball and always having confidence in myself with the ball in my hands.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">What is your GPA and have you taken the ACT yet and if so what is your highest score so far? </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">“My GPA is a 3.4 and I will be taking the ACT this October.”</span></span></p>
