About Colton

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

My style of play is fast paced and always in attack mode of offense. I look to advance the ball in transition to score quickly or to pass to teammates ahead of me for quick baskets.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

My mentality is that I am very competitive and want to improve every time I step onto the court. I have a very strong work ethic and I am a very determined player.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I am in the National Honors Society and I also made first team KHSAA Academic All State team with a 4.1 GPA

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I am a leader and a coach on the floor. I was a captain on my team this past season.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

No

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking to play college basketball at any level as it is an honor to get your education paid for and be able to play the game you love.

Colton checks a lot of boxes as a prospect and looks like he could be a breakout guy this winter, depending on where he enrolls. Helton has a very high skill level and a natural basketball IQ that comes from growing up in the gym as his parents are both coaches. With his size and ability to play on or off the ball, Helton should be a mismatch for most opposing teams. Don’t be surprised if he has a strong Junior season and sees his stock go up this winter.
