On Thursday October 10, West Orange High School Seniors, Johan Atwell, Gustav Hall, Elijah Milington, and Ismail Taylor-Kamara played in the unsigned senior showcase. The Showcase consisted of some of the most talented, yet under recruited basketball players in the State of New Jersey.
Gustav Hall is a 6’1 PG who stouts a 4.5 GPA (the highest at the showcase), comes off a season filled with injury. Last year, as a junior he only played 10 games. This year he looks to play the whole season and make a deep run into the State sectionals: “I feel as though we can compete with anybody, I have faith in my team”.
