Trey Hall....local soph....good??

[Blakeon18]

I see in the JI that East Catholic beat Windsor High on Monday for the second time this year.
They are 16-0...ranked #1 in the state. Score 93-89. Soph Trey Hall had 33 points....15 boards.
I don't know if Windsor has any height to match him...but they tend to be very athletic.
They are 12-4...with 2 of those losses coming to EC. Tonight EC goes to play Manchester High.

Anyone know anything about this kid's game?

Add: he is 6'8".

2020 Recruiting: Trey Hall

He's very good. High D1 player but he's already 17, wonder if he'll skip a grade.

 

[Kenny11]

He has improved a lot since last year. Nice shooting touch, good passer, very long, etc. His explosiveness is questionable but that has also improved since last year so maybe he's just growing into his body.

Future 150 has his as a 5 star.

I've seen him play a dozen times or so. He is an elite high-major prospect. Kids I know seem to think he will be transferring to a NEPSAC before too long. But that could be just rumors--who knows.

Friend of mine used to coach him. Apparently a good kid. Working on transitioning more to the perimeter. Right now he has a very good shot, but otherwise is stuck in the post on defense and offense. Needs to get stronger and more explosive, but his fundamentals are beautiful to watch for his age

We had a kid like that years ago. Corny Thompson. Worked out pretty well.

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

A special talent.

In-state. Not sure where in CT he grew up or where he lives now, but his dad and his uncle are from Hartford and played ball at Farmington High.

thanks for the info. I was just curious. Trinity Catholic has a freshman whose like 6'5ish, hasnt played much this year, not sure how good he is, but believe he is highly thought of.

Berlin?

Or that might be McGuirl the kid that is at KState now. But I think Berlin

I hope he wouldn’t mind going to school 15 min from home...

860 represent...will be rooting for this kid no matter where he ends up.

 

[BlueDogs]

They have another kid Matt Veretto whose pretty amazing too. 6'7" - Kid can put it down. I saw him go over the top of a defender and slam off a rebound like I've never seen in a high school game before. Here's one against Bassick ... not as huge but still you get the idea:

McGuirl is from Ellington.

Our Ace recruiter Bu Willingham was at the game the other night watching Trey

LOL isn't that the kind of stuff we think we may have gotten in trouble for?

 

[kjk9183]

Seriously?

Yes, this was the night before the Temple game so before the reports of violations came out.

So an AAU coach can’t watch a high school basketball team if he played in college?
