Congrats Williams named Times Dispatch Player of the Week

Hard work definitely pays off and it definitely shows when you put in the work in the classroom and hardwood will always allow you to receive positive results. Williams is a true testament to that and the Squire coaches can attest to that since the 8th grade. Williams improvement is tremendous and netting his third offer last week from the University of William and Mary, and prevousily adding Delaware University, and Boston University is a huge accomplishment. The role of point guard play of Squire Alumni Jermaine Johnson and the inside dominance of Saint Christophers have won 6 of thier last 7 games. More hardwork, strong finish to the high school season, and a great AAU season offers will be jumping out of the roof for the 2013 Williams.

Thomas rolls at George Washington Danville

Ahmad Thomas 6'5 wiry athlete is coming into form during his junior season. Thomas confidence really erupted as he helped the 2013 Squire team make it to the sweet sixteen with his intense defense. Thomas can guard the 1, 2, 3, and sometimes the 4 positions making him a threat defensively. Thomas is leading George Washington in scoring and providing leadership to the team. With more maturity, and consistency Thomas is definitely and Division I caliber guy.

Squires Lockley dominate Group A Div. II basketball

Lockley a two time Group A Division 2 All-State winner is only a junior and has accomplished a lot during his two years at Middlesex High School. Very rare for a freshman to make all-state honors, but Lockley has excelled at every level. A bouncy athlete who is ranked as one of the top athletes in the state for both basketball and football is continuing to put the hard work on the hardwood. He is a very unselfish basketball player and one of the key contributors to the Squire 2013 team. Averaging over 15 points and 8 boards a game since his freshman year really tells us that there is more to come for Lockley. Highlights are coming soon.

Freshman sensation Brown soars at Trinity

A gym rat is the best term to describe Josh Brown. Josh Brown is in Squires 2015 class and the past two games he has been averaging 20 points a game. Aganist STAB he scored 13 second half points finishing with 20 and their past victory aganist Collegiate scored another 20. Coming off the bench earlier this season has worked his way to the starting lineup a goal that he wanted to accomplish before coming into the season. Watch out Brown is beginning to erupt as one of the top freshman in state.
