Rock Hill’s Kohl Rosario Shines Bright in National Basketball Scene
Rock Hill, S.C., has a growing star in high school basketball, and his name is Kohl Rosario. This junior wing player is currently making waves across the nation, rapidly becoming one of the most talked-about newcomers in North Carolina basketball.
Meet Kohl Rosario
Standing tall at 6 feet 5 inches and weighing 196 pounds, Rosario plays for the Hudson (N.C.) Moravian Prep, where he is now garnering national attention. Notably, his recent recruiting success comes thanks to a combination of stellar performances and the spotlight generated by his teammates, etching his name into the recruitment landscape.
One key factor in Rosario’s rise has been his time on the court alongside South Carolina senior point guard signee Eli Ellis. The connections and prestige of the Ellis family, coupled with the visibility offered by the Overtime Elite platform, have played a significant role in shining a light on Rosario’s talents. Previously flying under the radar, he is now stepping confidently into the spotlight.
Recent Standout Performance
Recently, Rosario put on an impressive show that had scouts and fans buzzing. He tallied an impressive 24 points in a high-energy game, showcasing his ability to score and dominate on the court. His team, the CP3 AAU squad, recently triumphed over Drifty Elite with a final score of 98-80. In this game, his teammates also put up solid numbers, including Cole Cloer with 20 points, Kendre Harrison contributing 13 points, and Dionte Neal with 14 points.
The Supportive CP3 AAU Squad
The support from his CP3 team has been tremendous, with players like Cole Cloer, who is currently the top college prospect in North Carolina, adding to the mix. Cloer himself averaged an impressive 18.9 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists last season with Caldwell Academy, with several ACC schools expressing interest in him, including NC State, Duke, and Wake Forest. As the summer approaches, he is already looking at narrowing his college choices and planning official visits.
Alongside Cloer, Kendre Harrison and Dionte Neal are also making their marks as top rising players in their class, further elevating the CP3 team’s competitive standing. Harrison is ranked third in his class, while Neal holds the ninth spot, demonstrating the level of talent that Rosario has the privilege of playing with.
Catching the Eyes of Major Programs
As Rosario’s skills continue to shine, he’s already received offers from multiple prestigious programs, including South Carolina, Villanova, Baylor, and Oregon. Schools like Tennessee and Michigan have also shown interest, indicating that his recruitment journey is just beginning and that the future holds exciting possibilities.
The Big Picture
As we look at Patino’s efforts at St. John’s with the signing of five-star guard Ian Jackson, who transferred from North Carolina, we can see similar strategies unfolding with players like Rosario. With so many talented players rising through the ranks, the basketball scene is alive with excitement and potential.
Sure, rankings and recruitment dynamics can swirl like a tornado, but what matters most is the dedication and passion on the court! Rock Hill is rooting for Kohl Rosario, and sports fans nationwide will be keeping a close eye on this talented athlete as he moves forward on his journey.
