Smith is an athletic guard who excels at getting into the paint on the offensive end. Solly is also a versatile defender who can switch across multiple positions on that end of the court. For Catholic to remain relevant in the 3rd region, Smith and Dre’Mail Carothers have to elevate their games. It’s early but Solomon looks like the sort of player who thrives at a D3 or NAIA school in college.

Solomon Smith is a quick, explosive lead guard who thrives in the open floor and puts constant pressure on defenses. His tight handle and burst allow him to blow by defenders and get into the paint, where he finishes with athleticism and touch. Smith also brings strong court vision, setting up teammates and keeping the offense flowing. He’s the top returning scorer for Owensboro Catholic after averaging 11.8 points on an efficient 52% shooting. With his ability to make plays in transition and produce on both ends, Smith is a high-motor guard already drawing college attention, including an offer from Brescia.
