It has been quite a ride these past 10 months for Park View (South Hill, VA) rising sophomore guard Keldon Johnson. For his high school team, the 6’5” standout averaged around 27 points per game and eclipsed the all-time VHSL freshman single season scoring record. On the AAU circuit this spring and summer, Johnson earned an invite to the Adidas All-American Camp in New York, where as one of the youngest competitors in the field he averaged a solid 7.6 points per game while shooting 44-percent from 3-point range.

As you might imagine, college coaches have taken notice of his play.

Cincinnati, Georgetown, NC State, Old Dominion, Texas, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest have extended scholarship offers to the promising prospect, whose brother, Kaleb, signed with Georgetown in the class of 2015. Certainly, it’s likely that Keldon’s recruitment will continue to flourish in the coming years.
