Troy Holston Down to 6

Troy Holston, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Oldsmar (FL) Christian, has trimmed his list to six schools.

Holston, who played this summer for North Florida Elite and elevated his stock at Peach State, is down to South Florida, Kansas State, Miami, Alabama, Marquette and Memphis.

“I’ve been working my butt off to get where I wanted to be,” Holston told TampaBay.com. “I wanted to play at a high level major college. I’m glad people are taking notice.”
