Up next in the LakePoint Hoops Class of 2021 Spotlight Series…
Cole Middleton
Position: Power Forward
Height: 6’6"
High School: Pace Academy
Travel Team: Georgia Stars
Scholarship Offers: College of Charleston, Georgia College, and Siena
Scouting Report: Middleton had a terrific junior season for Pace Academy in helping the Knights win another state championship. The 6-foot-6 post player is a monster in the paint and arguably the best rebounder in the state right now. He's quick off of his feet and has a ton of strength, toughness and tenacity that make up for his lack of height, and he shows it by consistently out-rebounding bigger players. He has great hands and soft touch around the rim. He’s continued to make progress towards becoming a better mid-range shooter.
