TEAM PREVIEW:
Nathan Hale is out of the darkness and into the spotlight. That's what happens when Michael Porter Jr., the nation's No. 1 prospect, is added to the roster. Porter, a senior, and his brother Jontay Porter, who is the No. 27 prospect for 2018, will lead this team from putrid to great after their father, Michael Porter Sr., took the assistant coaching vacancy at Washington. The brothers put their former school, Father Tolton (MO), on the map and it will be a similar result at Nathan Hale. Add in three-time NBA All-Star Brandon Roy as the first-year coach and the Nathan Hale's abysmal 17-50 mark the past three seasons is safely in the rearview mirror. The athleticism and sheer notoriety with Nathan Hale now only scratches the surface of intrigue with this new era.
