Former MGCCC sharpshooter stays HOT! He broke the single season record for 3 pt makes with 100 so far at a 43% clip. Great example of finding the right fit. Had multiple D1 offers, but none that felt right. He chose to go to high level D2 instead and has been a monster!
Congrats to Winston Morgan who just broke a 28 year old record of three pointers hit in a single season! 🔥🏀🔥 Morgan’s 5 first half threes tonight lifted him to 98, three more than J.J. Taylor’s total of 95 during the 1990-91 season!

The analogy I have used all year about @AaronPotter2022 is that he's like a thoroughbred prize race horse that would run the race until his heart explodes. And that is 100% accurate. HIGH MOTOR, as high that exists in this business. Oh, and he can score too. (A LOT) .
