  • Frederick Douglass Academy for Young Men Student-Athlete Named Gatorade Michigan Boys Basketball Player of the Year
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] FREDERICK DOUGLASS ACADEMY FOR YOUNG MEN STUDENT-ATHLETE NAMED GATORADE MICHIGAN BOYS BASKETBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR CHICAGO (June 4, 2021) — In its 36th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, Gatorade today announced Pierre Brooks II of Frederick Douglass Academy for Young Men as its 2020-21 Gatorade Michigan Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Brooks II is the first Gatorade Michigan Boys Basketball Player of the Year to be chosen from Frederick Douglass Academy for Young Men. The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Brooks II as Michigan’s best high school boys basketball player. Now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year award to be announced in June, Brooks II joins an elite alumni association of state award-winners in 12 sports, including Jayson Tatum (2015-16, Chaminade College Preparatory School, Mo.), Karl-Anthony Towns (2012-13 & 2013-14, St. Joseph High School, N.J.), Jabari Parker (2011-12, Simeon Career Academy, Ill.) and Dwight Howard (2003-04, Southwest Atlanta Christian Academy, Ga.). The 6-foot-6, 218-pound senior wing led the Hurricanes to an 18-5 record and the Division 4 state championship this past season. Brooks averaged 33.1 points, 10.7 rebounds, 2.1 steals, 4.5 assists and 1.4 blocks per game, and he tallied 15 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in the Academy’s 47-41 win over Tri-Unity Christian High in the state title game.

  • Roddy Gayle Will Give One Team a Multi-Positional Threat in 2022
    11/12/2020 2022 recruit Roddy Gayle will announce commitment – The Athletic Roddy Gayle will give one team a multi-positional threat in 2022 By The Athletic College Basketball Staff (/author/the-athletic-college-basketball-staff/) 2h ago 1 One college basketball program is about to get better. Roddy Gayle, a 6-foot-4, 195-pound guard from Youngstown, N.Y., will announce his commitment on Friday from among six finalists: UConn, Georgetown, Marquette, Ohio State, Pitt and Syracuse. Gayle is the No. 54 prospect in the Class of 2022, according to the 247Sports Composite. In advance of his decision, three The Athletic college basketball writers shared what he would mean to the programs they cover. Ohio State https://theathletic.com/2192364/2020/11/12/roddy-gayle-ohio-state-syracuse-uconn-college-basketball-recruiting/?source=rss 1/7 11/12/2020 2022 recruit Roddy Gayle will announce commitment – The Athletic Ohio State appears to be in decent shape to land its second commitment in the Class of 2022. If Gayle picks the Buckeyes, he’d join fellow guard Bowen Hardman in the class. However, Hardman and Gayle aren’t exactly similar players. Hardman needs to mature a little bit physically, but is a dead-eye shooter from the wing. What attracted Ohio State to Gayle is not only his scoring ability, but also his size as a player who could play either guard position or on the wing. Gayle was offered by Ohio State in April, and assistant coach Jake Diebler continued to foster a relationship with the four-star prospect from New York.
