CPA’s Jalen Lindsey tweets that he’s transferring to Huntington Prep

April 26th, 2013 | by Chip Cirillo

Christ Presbyterian Academy basketball star Jalen Lindsey tweeted late Thursday night that he is transferring to Huntington, WV, Prep for his senior year.

“It was the hardest decision of my life, but yes, I will be attending Huntingdon Prep next year for my senior year! If anybody was in doubt!†Lindsey tweeted.

Attempts to reach Lindsey and CPA boys coach Drew Maddux were unsuccessful.

Lindsey was named the Class AA Mr. Basketball winner and the state tournament MVP as he led the Lions to their second straight state title last season.

The 6-foot-7 junior is a major college prospect who has 20 offers, including Louisville, Ohio State, Florida, Vanderbilt and Tennessee.

Huntington Prep (30-3) finished seventh in USA Today’s national rankings last season.

Huntington Prep swingman Andrew Wiggins was named the Gatorade boys national basketball player of the year and the USA Today player of the year last season.

Lindsey averaged 19.3 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.2 blocks last season.

Clarksville 63 Mt Juliet 46 - Final

From the Tennessean ...

Region 5-AAA girls final has national poll implications

Posted on February 29, 2012 by Maurice Patton

Clarksville is one of five Tennessee girls basketball teams ranked in this week’s ESPN Fab 50 nationwide poll.

The Lady Wildcats, in fact, are the No. 7 team in the rankings — a spot behind Riverdale, but ahead of Science Hill (20), Memphis Overton (47) and defending Class AAA state champion Memphis Central (48).

Mt. Juliet is unranked, unmentioned and unlisted in said poll.

So Wednesday night’s Region 5-AAA championship clash between the two shouldn’t be much of a clash, right?

After all, Clarksville’s got five Division I signees, three of which are Southeastern Conference-bound — including Bashaara Graves, a Miss Basketball finalist who’s set to go to UT, and 3-point shooter Chandler Cooper, who will play at Florida.

Mt. Juliet counters with post Caya Williams, who has signed with Middle Tennessee State, and reserve post Barianne Taylor (UT-Martin).

But …

Don’t be surprised when the Lady Bears grab home court for Saturday’s Class AAA sectional round — and put highly ranked, highly touted Clarksville on the road — with a win tonight.

At 31-3, Mt. Juliet’s losses have been by 19 total points, twice to Riverdale (62-57 at home, 62-58 in Murfreesboro on Feb. 13) and to Science Hill on a neutral floor.

Clarksville, unbeaten at 34-0, hasn’t had a closer game than a 48-34 win over Hillsboro in December, and the Lady Wildcats opened the region tourney with a 59-35 win over Wilson Central before defeating Station Camp 66-27 in Monday’s semifinal.

Tonight will be a close game, and it’s tough for a team that hasn’t had the experience of those type situations to find itself in the middle of one — and to react favorably to such a setting.

Mt. Juliet 56, Clarksville 51.

And while it may be a national stunner, locally it won’t be nearly as surprising.

Great night for 9-AAA after getting swept last year. Mt. Juliet, Wilson Central, and Beech all advance.

NE won 61-49

10-AAA won every game last night in the Region 5-AAA Tournament and the Leaf Chronicle is reporting that "According to the TSSAA, the tournament now moves to the highest seed site — West Creek — for Tuesday's semifinal and Thursday's championship after all four District 9-AAA teams were eliminated. The original regional site was Gallatin High."

Anyone ever heard of this, or have any info? Is this a new thing? Thanks

I have followed 9AAA basketball for many years and this is by far the weakest I have seen it top to bottom. I don't know much about the Clarksville region, but I cant imagine any of the 9AAA teams challenging.

You were right. All four 9-AAA teams lost tonight.
