PHR: What are you looking for in a program?
DJ: I'm looking for a place I fit in and I like the coaches a lot and a place that can get me prepared to take my game to the next level.
Georgetown will do that for you!!! Come to Georgetown and be the next AF!!

Excellent Journalism! The writer references Jones's year in the WCAC incorrectly TWICE. I can forgive a single Roman numeral juxtaposition, but to twice refer to the school from Fairfax, VA as Paul IV *really* shows some disrespect to what may be the single greatest Private HS basketball league in the U.S.
Oh, and the "State Title" that Deon helped Paul VI win last year was the Private School title. The ONLY other *PRIVATE* HS program in VA that can compete at a NATIONAL level (no offense meant to the 3 IAC schools & Benedictine) is O'Connell, the future alma mater of one Kendall Marshall. Deon's team never played against some of the public powerhouses in Richmond, Norfolk, & NoVA. In Delaware, on the other hand, the state tournament consists of a single bracket mixing public & private school teams for a SINGLE state champion (of course, this is partly necessary due to the diminutive size of our great nation's First State. At least DE is bigger than RI).

Do you mean the only other HS in VA, or only other VA HS in the the WCAC? You go from saying no other team in VA can compete, but then say he didn't have to play the tougher public schools. I don't get it.
And O'Connell is not "the future alma mater of one Kendall Marshall." It is "the alma mater of Jason Clark."

CT: I have modified my post to hopefully clarify. Also, I listed Marshall because this is the Recruiting page. I certainly am well-aware of the HS origins of #21 for the Hoyas.

I see now. Sorry if I came across as a jerk. I'm just so used to hearing about how great the WCAC is that I was a bit confused.
