Tell us about yourself?
I'm a 5'10 combo guard. I love to play basketball any chance I get or if not I'm hanging out with my friends, playing games, etc. My goals for my high school year is to receive a scholarship and play DI or DII basketball.

What was your best game?
My best game I ever had was at a tournament for AAU. We traveled to Boston and we were down a couple of players. So my coach said I need to step up the scoring. When the game was over I ended up having 30pts, 7 rebs, 6 asst, 4 stls an the mvp of the tourney.

Why are sports/education important to you?
Well, sports and education are important to me because I would like to play basketball in college and receive a good education.

What can you do to make yourself better in your sport?
I can make myself better in basketball by being more vocal to my team on the court. Also, when someone is down and not having a good game pick them up so they can build their confidence.

What is your dream college?
My dream college is UCONN.

If a College Coach ask you, how can you make our team better, what would you say?
I will give my all in practice and games. I will do the little things that nobody would think of. I wouldn't back down from any challenge that is tossed my way.

What advice can you give other student-athletes?
If you have a goal already set, give it 110% to accomplish that goal of your life. The choice you choose will be the career in the future in your lifetime.

What was your best game?
My biggest game was probably my double double when I had 15 points and 20 rebounds in 4th grade.

Who is the best player you have played against?
The best player I've probably played against was Jordan Summers. I'll probably have to say he is a left and right handed shooter, great scorer, and quick.

How do you make your team better?
I make my team better by telling them what they can do better, I get them open, and practice how I play which helps them.

Who is your favorite player?
My favorite player is probably Rajon Rondo. He has an explosive quick first step, very good at stealing, and he's a great passer.

What advice can you give other student-athletes?

COLT THOMPSON- HOUSTON HIGH SCHOOL

Tell everyone about yourself?
My name is Colt Thompson. I am a freshman at Houston High School in the Memphis area. I play football, basketball, and rugby. In football, I play center and some defensive line along with some linebacker. I'm a very good student and am also president of my grade. I always work to get better. Performance is a result of work ethic.

What was your best game?
I would say my best game was my first one against Cordova. I had 3 pancake blocks. It just felt great to get back on the field again after the long offseason. We won by about 21.

Who is the best player you have played against?
Connor Harris and BJ Nagle. I got a chance to play with Connor in 6th grade, but I also had to play against him the next two years. He is a great running back and he is very hard to tackle. I played with BJ in 8th grade. Everyday in practice, I got to play against him on scout team defense. He plays quarterback. It really made be a better player because he is so hard to tackle as he is a dual-threat QB.

How do you make your team better?
I make my team better in many ways. It all starts with me on offense, so I must make sure the ball gets to the quarterback. I am a leader, whether vocally or by example. I'm not afraid to tell someone when they are not acting right.

Who is your favorite player?
Brian Urlacher, he is a great leader on Chicago's defense. He is such a great player and always has a great attitude. He comes to work every day no matter what.

Why are sports/education important to you?
Sports are fun to me. I love all of them, and I am very competitive. I think you must have good grades to play sports. I don't think you deserve the opportunity to play sports if you don't have good grades.

What advice can you give other student-athletes?
Just work hard. On the field, in the classroom, and don't ever give up. If you want it the most, you will get it.
