where did he play last year ?

His first year of organized basketball was year before last at a private school in Maryland.  I don’t think it’s appropriate to divulge a lot of information here but I will say he is one of several African students I’ve seen who came over here on a bill of goods.  The school that brought him over thwarted every attempt to allow in school anywhere last year.  Fortunately for Val (and his new family) he was able to find a home and has been since adopted and is extremely happy.  As important as his growth on the floor, he just finished his second consecutive six weeks on the honor roll.   He’s a great kid with a bright future.

Hoping for the best for him. Glad he is getting to play.

Is he classified as a senior?

      Multi-Sport Athletes

      Meh.. Everyone knows this. The kid that got injured wasn't lifting weights. Supposedly he was hit with a helmet in his elbow. In my opinion the kid shouldn't have been put in that situation. AD should've told the Varsity baseball players to sit that one out. I have no issues with the lifting or conditioning. However, anytime helmets/pads are on there is a higher risk of injury. This AD showed a total lack of respect for HIS baseball program.

      What has happened to Jasper?

      Maybe.. however..  Many athletic director / head football coach have lost their job despite the athletic program as a whole being successful.. if the football team struggles.  On the other hand, when football teams are doing great but the rest of the program stinks.. AD/HFC still keeps their job. WOS.  Newton. .. programs as a whole were fairly weak during those many years of football power and very few people even knew it.  Or cared. Yet, AD/HFC kept their jobs for years. Meanwhile, I remember an AD/HFC at Barbers Hill lost his job after every program in the school won district championships and even had several team sports (baseball, softball, girls hoops, etc.) making runs at state.  But the football team was mediocre.  Fired. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that perception is reality.  And the perception is that your athletic program can suck as long as football wins.. it doesn't matter how strong the athletic program is if football sucks.

      It's only a matter of time before the baseball mafia starts greasing the tracks to run Crumedy out of town. It'll be a dang shame too, but mark my words.
