Russ Middleton, Mason County Junior who has committed to Georgetown scored his 1000th point Tuesday against Campbell County. Russ was the 18th Royal to join the 1000 point club. Congratulations Russ!!!!!!!!:ylsuper::ylsuper::ylsuper::ylsuper:

around 2 years to get 1000th point is quite a feat congrats to Rusty:banana:

He started his freshman year, and he's a junior, so it's actually pretty much 3.

Congrats to Russ!:thumb:

Congrats!

Yep a wonderful achievment and as the paper said, considering all the weapons this team has on offense, it makes it even more of an accomplishment.

 

Can't wait to see him lead the Royals next year. :thumb:

Why would a junior ever commit to a NAIA school? What if he gets a better offer? Will he have a chance to get a better offer?

I thought the same thing, unless it was purely for the education.

His dad went to Georgetown I believe, G-Town's coaching staff is very good friends with Mason County's staff, just a lot of positive history there. Go to school where he is close to home, comfortable AND get a great education.

 

At least I think that's correct, those are some of the reasons I have heard.

^ I agree with being close to home and a great education, but I wasn't aware of his dad going there.

Good Luck to him!

Great choice!

Congrats. Good accomplishment in your junior year. Seen him play 5-6 times last couple of years. I love his hustle.

Didn't O'Hearn play his college ball at Georgetown? And let's not forget Faulkner played his college football as a Tiger. And is now an assistant. Many connections to G'Town at Mason Co. I hope he keeps his recruting options open.

Congrats to Mr. Middleton!!!
