The Be Seen Tour made its farthest trip south recently to visit West Nottingham Academy in Maryland, the country’s oldest prep school, founded back in 1774.  The school’s basketball tradition began almost 25 years ago when Raphael Chillious pioneered a program that featured future UConn big man Josh Boone before heading to South Kent.  His departure led to a hibernation of the prep program but when Kris Johnson made the move from Lawrence Academy, he was able to revitalize it… READ MORE >

St. Thomas More and Albany City Rocks 2022 big man Riley Mulvey announced an early commitment to Iowa on Monday.  The Hawkeyes became the first high-major school to offer the 6-foot-11 big man a scholarship last May and have since been joined by a number of other suitors at that level.  The ties go back far longer than that to when Iowa head coach Fran McCaffery was the head coach at Siena where Mulvey's father once played soccer and his… READ MORE >
