Basketball: American Fork getting state's next star?
We've talked about a couple of transfer students who are going to change the landscape of Utah County high school basketball this winter, Lone Peak's Tommy Tebbs and Orem's Pablo Coro, in blogs earlier this week.
Now we've found out about a player who could change the scene for the next four years.
Sources say a young man from Preston, Idaho, by the name of Casey Oliverson is moving into American Fork's boundaries and could play for the Cavemen's varsity as a ninth-grader.
Oliverson is already 6-foot-8 and will play for the club team Salt Lake Metro as well. By the time he is close to graduating (2012), Oliverson will be the highest-rated prospect in the state, one recruiting expert told me a few days ago.
Oliverson is the brother of Shawn Oliverson, a 6-11 center who recently signed with Louisiana Tech. Shawn Oliverson played for Cornell for a season before going on an LDS Church mission and will has three years of eligibility remaining.
He helped Preston win the Idaho state title in 2004.
