Mason Hooks' HS career came to an end Saturday night as Harvard-Westlake fell to top seeded Sierra Canyon 75-65 with LeBron James and Drake both in attendance. Hooks had 18 points in the effort against Sierra Canyon's 7-3 260 pound center Harold Yu, who's a 3-star junior.

Some video of the game, Hooks is #44 in black. His move to score at 6:34 reminds me a little of something AJ Brodeur would do

Thanks for the post.
Yu actually makes Hooks look small. And there must be more than a 15 lb. difference between them.

I've seen Yu listed anywhere between 260 and 300 pounds, so hard to say for sure but he definitely looks much bigger than Hooks. Putting a massive center like him with an already loaded team of 5 star wings and ball handlers is pretty unfair, but Harvard Westlake hung in and gave them a tough game

The guard from Ohio is Matt Allocco. I found some highlights on him from this past season. I read that he was 1st team All State. His team was very good by all accounts. He has really good size at 6'4 for the guard spot and is athletic. Looks like he can really handle it, pass it, and can create. I like what I see. Here are the highlights:

Thanks for those clips. Full disclosure: only watched about half.
He is listed as a point guard but I did not get much of a sense of his "handle", as they now call it.
Seems to like to get in the paint and go to the hoop, but that may change in college when his height is less of an advantage.

Assistant coach Skye Ettin, who is in charge of West Coast recruiting for the program, was named one of the 50 most impactful mid-major assistant coaches by Silver Waves Media.
Silver Waves Media is run by Ryan Silver, whose West Coast Elite AAU team and All Star Camps have been a part of the HS career of pretty much any Ivy player from California over the last few years.
Harvard assistant Brian Eskildsen, Penn's Nat Graham, Yale's Matt Kingsley were also named to the list. All 4 teams have had a lot of success recruiting California in recent years - Harvard I believe had 5 West Coast Elite players on the roster at one point

I’m sort of amazed that top mid-major assistant coaches is even a thing. Did the list exist before the lockdowns?

Everyone else is smiling, and Eski's still there looking like he's waiting for the Rolaids to kick in.
