David Ware isn’t keen on long-range introductions to the stat sheet. The Caroline senior prefers to announce his presence in the paint and expand his shot selection from there.

“I try to start with scoring inside out,” he explained, “so I can get used to seeing the ball go through the net.”

Ware didn’t lack for visual feedback on Friday. He poured in a school-record 51 points in the Cavaliers’ 94-74 victory at King George—netting his 1,000th career point moments into the second half.

Ware’s 51 points are the most for an area boys player in at least a decade, topping former Colonial Beach standout T.T. Carey, who erupted for 46 in a 2009 regional playoff contest against Surry. James Monroe sophomore Michael Gray and Foxes senior Jaylen Stepney have also eclipsed the 40-point mark this season.

If we assume every scholarship player with eligibility remaining after this year is returning, we do not. The fact that we are looking at 2018 prospects is a good indication that is not going to happen. I can easily see us having 2 available with a suspended player's status in question and a redshirt JR who will almost certainly graduate and has very limited prospects for PT next year if he returns.

Agreed not sure i would use it another 6 4 combo guard. It would appear to me the guard minutes are all locked up for the next 2 years at least maybe longer if mcghee is as good as advertised and if price amounts to anything.

Id love to find a williams type kid that can score a little better than isaiah.

I have no idea if we will offer Ware a scholarship or not, but when a local kid puts up 51 points in a 32 minute HS game, I'm happy to see that we showed up to check him out.
