Three members of the Sports U U16 team that won the Under Armour Association championship have been invited to the Under Armour Elite 24 Game on Aug. 20 in Brooklyn, a source told SNY.tv.
Naz Reid, Jahvon Quinerly and Louis King were all invited to the game. (The official roster has not been released.)
Reid plays at Roselle (N.J.) Catholic, while Quinerly and King play for Hudson Catholic.
The trio — along with Atiba Taylor and Luther Muhammad — are part of the “Fab Five” from Sports U that holds group offers from Seton Hall, Rutgers and UConn.
The 6-foot-8 King told SNY.tv that Seton Hall and Indiana are working the hardest.
The 6-11 Reid listed Cal, Kentucky, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Kansas and UConn among those “working hard.”
As for the 6-1 Quinerly, he recently added offers from Ohio State and Vanderbilt, among others. He told SNY.tv that “California, Seton Hall, St. John’s, Ohio State, Villanova and UConn” are among those working hardest.
“I’m working on [visits] now, I don’t have any officials set,” he said, adding he wants to visit Ohio State, possibly in September, and also California.
Wherever Quinerly goes, “I’ll bring my competitiveness, my leadership skills and my ability to run the team.”
Meantime, he feels Hudson Catholic’s Big Three of himself, Muhammad and King can compete for a New Jersey state title and Tournament of Champions crown.
“I want to bring a state title to my school,” Quinerly said. “With the addition of Louis I feel we have a great chance.”
