The stars of 2024-25 College Park Basketball
KINGS OF THE NORTH: No. 7 College Park equipped for a lengthy run in the playoffs
7 -- COLLEGE PARK CAVALIERS
Way up north sits College Park High School. The home of the Cavs and one of the most electric gyms in the city on a Friday night.
Coach Clifton McNeely is one of the best in the business and has a comprehensive team in 2024-25.
Coming off a 33-5 season and a district title, College Park returns some integral pieces, starting in the back-court with Aiden Buckmon and Ian Inman (Colorado-commit).
“We have great chemistry,” McNeely said. “That comes from those two. What I love about this team is that they don’t want to be in the gym... they need to be in the gym. They work on their craft.”
Their dynamic duo combined for over 30 points per game last year, and will also lean on Tyson Forrest, Robert Matthews and big-man Jacob Oman.
“Jacob is a true rim protector and can score inside,” McNeely said. “That opens up the floor for our guards. Tyson is going to step up after an injury last year and Robert will be our on-ball defender. Lookout for the third Buckmon to play here... Quintyn Buckmon is a freshman that will come off the bench for us.”
College Park is a State contender in Class 6A Region II. You heard it here first.
