2021 PG Luke Brown from Blackford High School in Hartford City, Indiana is on the Flyers radar. He was in attendance for our last regular season home game against
LaSalle. The 6'1" sharpshooter is averaging 38.0 ppg and is on pace to surpass Damon Bailey's Indiana High School scoring record of 3,134 pts. (Romeo Langford, current Indiana star from New Albany, Indiana had 3,002 career pts.) Luke had 48 pts. in one game this past season!
There was a newspaper article that stated that he once made 84 of 100 shots behind the 3-point arc! Also 92 of 100! If we haven't offered this kid yet we should! Opposing teams have tried a variety of gimic defenses to stop him to no avail. One game a team used a box and 1 and a triangle with two men guarding him and he had no points but did dish out 11 assists at the start of the game and they jumped out to a 17-2 lead!
Damon Bailey played for IU and if Luke Brown breaks his career record point total it will be hard to pry him away from Archie Miller but we should get involved early and see what may materialize.
