10p 8r 2a vs Westchester
-Athletic 3/4 tweener fills several needs for a Highland team that has gotten off to a hot start this season. Hamilton can be moved up and down the lineup defensively depending on foul situation and rotations but usually is tasked with guarding opponent 5s or the strongest interior presence. Hamilton works well as a mover off the ball and can serve as a connector from the wing, looking to make the next pass to give his team the best possible look in the halfcourt. The ballhandling and footwork on pivots have improved to enable him to finish better in traffic around the basket. Has picked up offers from College of Charleston and Oklahoma State in the past month.

Hamilton set the defensive tone early for this Highland team, recording 4 of his game-high 7 blocks in the first quarter to protect a 6-point lead throughout the first half that sustained the Hawks’ down the stretch. The timing on the weakside blocks allowed him to collect the rebound before outletting to get Highland going in transition for easy points. The athletic 6’8 junior F turned a lot of heads with his impact beyond the box score on both ends of the floor, finishing with 2p 7b 7r 1s on the night.
