Family ties bring Harvard’s Rio Haskett to Hampton
- Haskett played his high school ball at Richmond’s L.C. Bird High School. He led Bird to a 90-11 record as a three-year starter. He was named All-State twice.
He will now be following in the footsteps of his father, Mario Haskett Sr. Mario Sr. played college ball in the CIAA at St. Paul’s College for the late Edward “Buck†Joyner Sr. in the late 1990s. Now his son will be playing for Buck Joyner Jr. at Hampton.
“We’re family. Me and Buck are like brothers,†Haskett Sr. told HBCU Gameday. “The opportunity presented itself, and — to make a long story short — my son said ‘dad, he’s gonna give me the keys to the car, I’ma drive.†-
