Anthony Ray's Recruiting Academy took place again this Saturday again in Southern Arizona on the campus of Vista Grande High School in Casa Grande, Arizona. The second installment of this year's Academy was even more exciting, as each of the participants worked extremely hard again on their fundamentals and skills - with each student-athlete learning a great deal and getting better on the day.
There was excellent instruction provided by the staff, and the recruiting information provided by Arizona Preps' own Anthony Ray was invaluable and unparalleled in the state for basketball. Former high school coach and local trainer Chris Hurst put the players through intense drills and instruction.
There were numerous standouts on the day with their performance, led by the hard work and dedication of Vista Grande High School sophomore guard Jeovany Cruz. Cruz is a tough, hard-nosed young guard prospect that does an excellent job in the drills - paying attention to detail and working very hard. Cruz is promising young prospect that has the work ethic and focus to definitely become a serious player over time.
The players in attendance received quality instruction from Arizona Preps' senior editor and 19-year Arizona hs/juco basketball scout Anthony Ray. Ray shared valuable recruiting information to the players in attendance - sharing stories of past players and also intangibles that will help players get recruited. Ray has developed such NBA players as Jerryd Bayless (Milwaukee Bucks), Isaiah Thomas (Boston Celtics), Carrik Felix (Cleveland Cavaliers), Luis Ahmundson (New York Knicks) and Bryce Cotton (Utah Jazz).
The Basketball Academy will consist of 8-week sessions throughout the year, and will focus on different aspects of the recruiting and playing process each session. This week's focus was "attitude." Ray and his staff taught the importance of having a good attitude on and off the basketball court, and what that also means to life and a working career.
Next week the camp will focus on "body language." The next session of the Recruiting Academy will take place on Saturday, May 30th. Here is some more information on thow to register for next weekend's Recruiting Academy . . .
