Daniel Armah, the first Runhouse Hoops Gold Coast Recruit, stopped by the Finley Recreation Center to instruct and practice with the Philly Triple Threat 14u team. The youngsters were amazed at Armah’s athletic ability and listened closely as it talked to them about basketball in Ghana.

Armah was our first recruit from the Runhouse Hoops Gold Coast Project and is now joined at Casper by fellow recruit 6′ 9″ Atsu Atakpa.

Runhouse-Hoops Gold Coast Project Recruit - Atsu Atakpa has arrived ready to play for Casper College. Atakpa is the third recruit in the project joining 6′ 6″ Daniel Armah and 6′ 10″ Chris Angsomewine.

“Big Tsu” is a highly skilled player on the post with a soft touch on his shot. He is also a great rebounder and outlet passer.
