We are happy to report that Philadelphia’s own Tyrell Taylor is doing well after his first year at Henry Ford Junior College in Michigan. Taylor finished 5th in the nation in assists with an average of 7.5. He also chipped in with 11.3 ppg. Henry Ford JC finished with a record of 20-9 with Taylor in the starting lineup. Don’t miss out on this seasoned player. The reports we have received on him indicate he is very capable of running a team and is a very poised player.

The RunHouse Staff is pleased to announce that one of our own, Jay Harris, has committed to play for Tennessee State today. Harris formerly of Robeson High was an All Public League selection that chose to attend Charis Prep this year. Harris averaged 20 ppg as a senior at Robeson and this year at Charis he averaged 14 ppg, 11 apg and 3 spg. Charis Prep set a team record this year with a 24-0 home record with Harris at the point. Harris also played on the Runhouse team in the 2010 season of the Philadelphia Positive Image League.

Jay was being recruited by Tennessee State, Western Kentucky, Colorado State, Quinnipiac, Youngstown State, Northeastern and Central Michigan. Harris recently visited Tennessee State on a visit with his mentor Rasool Hajj. The trip to Nashville sold him on the school and the city.

Harris wants to thank his coaches at Robeson and Charis Prep for all that they have done to help him obtain his goal of playing Divison 1 basketball. We know Harris will do very well at Tennessee State and look forward to seeing him in action in the upcoming year.

We are pleased to be working with one of Philly’s tougher players. Barry Brockington is a 6′ 4″ G/F that can give a team alot of options. He can score from the outside and also slash to the basket equally well. He also plays hard at both ends of the floor.
Brockington will make an excellent addition to any college team. Look for Brockington to play for the Runhouse team in the Philadelphia Positive Image League this spring.

A highlight video was done of him by Chris Clahar of Clahar 34 Films.

From humble basketball beginnings rise the latest Robeson High School star. Andre Washington last year was a definite role player for the Huskies as he normally set picks and rebounded for All-Star guard Jay Harris. This season the 6′ 4″ slashing forward stepped up and became one of the featured players.

Displaying a talent for getting to the basket the swingman can be seen posting up taller opponents and also stepping out a bit to hit the mid range shots.

The hard work put in over the summer has yielded a 19.75 points per game average to go along with over 8 rebounds a game.

Washington’s best days are ahead of him as he adjusts more to the wing this spring in Philadelphia Positive Image League play. We know he will make the transition as easy as he did switching from role to feature player.

Star Power has arrived to the Runhouse-Hoops program by way of 6′ 7″ swingman Reggie Agbeko. The Ashanti Assassin continues to prove he is serious about playing basketball in the USA by leading his St Joe’s team to a 69 - 48 win over St Francis. Agbeko’s stats for the game read 16 points, 18 rebounds, 5 blocks, 3 assists and 2 steals. Not bad for a kid with only about 35 games to his name.

Agbeko came back 3 days later with 11pts and 10 rebounds in a 67 - 57 win over 4th ranked Canisus. Foul trouble limited his minutes in this game but he still provided a steady influence and was tough down the stretch.

Reggie, the team back in Ghana is cheering mightily for you and say to keep those double doubles coming.

Agbeko is currently averaging 17 ppg and 11 rpg.

The Runhouse-Hoops Project is a joint venture between Runhouse.net and Cape Coast Hoops. We identify and recruit the top talent in West Africa for play in the USA.
