A­HED Prep Schools Getting Slam Dunked Want Easier League of Their Own By DAVID ARMSTRONG Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal Updated April 23, 2002 12:01 a.m. ET WINCHENDON, Mass. ­­ When Phillips Exeter Academy faces the top basketball teams in the New England Prep School Athletic Conference, coach Malcolm Wesselink jokes that his biggest problem is getting his players not to ask star opponents for autographs. Hoop stars among the preppies? Don't snicker. The NEPSAC league includes the likes of Martin Iti, a 6­ foot­10 junior at the Winchendon School here who has already been scouted by the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs. Giedrius Rinkevicius, a 7­foot­2 center, came to Maine to attend Bridgton Academy from basketball­mad Lithuania ­­ and next year will have a basketball scholarship at the University of Missouri, one of the best college teams in the country. Then there's Rashad McCants, a slam­dunking guard who made six out of six three­point shots and scored 25 points altogether in New Hampton School's 91­65 drubbing of Exeter in an intra­New Hampshire battle this past season.
