Basketball: Haws is Gatorade Player of the Year
Here's an announcement that will surprise no one who has followed Utah high school basketball the past few years.
Lone Peak guard Tyler Haws is the Utah Gatorade Player of the Year, the sports drink company announced today.
Haws becomes a finalist for the Gatorade National Boys Basketball Player of the Year award, which will be announced later this month.
Of course, readers of this blog know him as the guy who will be the state's most-recruited basketball player next year, because Haws is just a junior.
According to the Gatorade release, Haws carries a 3.97 grade point average.
He averaged 20.8 points and 4.6 rebounds a game for the Knights, who are ranked No. 20 in the nation by the National Prep Poll.
"He's a once-in-every-20-years type kid," Lone Peak coach Quincy Lewis said. "He's a winner, first and foremost. In two years with him in the lineup, we are 47-3."
Haws remains undecided about his college choice.
Recent Gatorade Boys Basketball Players of the Year for Utah: Provo's Chris Colliinsworth (2007), Judge's Daniel Deane (2006), Olympus' Shaun Green (2005).
Collinsworth played a lot for BYU this season. Deane and Green signed with Utah, but Deane left for Oregon State after a year. He recently left that program, however.
