Last high school game. Lost to the state champs in OT by 3. Left it all out there. Thank you to everyone who’s been a part of the journey. Blessed to surround myself with good teammates, family, coaches and trainers. Next chapter.

Max is known for his soul crushing blocks and thunder dunks. A mobile big man, he anchors the team’s offense and defense. Max leads the CVC in pts., rebounds & blocks per game, and in double doubles, field goals & free throws. He will attend @LBSUMBB to play basketball.
