I'd say the best 15 yr old I ever saw play was Scott Draud or Derrick Smith. I go back probably 30 yrs.

Brian O'Connor was awful good as a 15 year old too!

How old was the Hatton kid last year?

No way he's 14.

To clarify the situation I talked to a member of his family and he just turned 15 this fall, so he is a legitimate freshman.

He was 15 .

Best 15 year-olds/freshman I've seen in NKY ,not including kids currently playing would have to include:

 

Harney from HC, Smith from HHS, Krohman from SK, Glaser from HHS, Haynes from Scott, C. Pouncy from Holmes, to name a few.

Don't remember any of these players averaging 18 PPG as a freshman on the varsity level. I know it's only been 6 or 7 games but it's still remarkable. It's not like NCC has played an all A schedule either.

Not sure what NCC's schedule has to do with anything, but you're right, they've lost to some pretty good teams.

 

As for the player's I mentioned, not sure about their scoring averages, but they were good players on mostly very good teams as freshman.

 

As far as PPG goes, the Haynes kid at Scott scored an awful lot on a regional championship team, and he had by far the least distinguished career of those I mentioned. More to the game than scoring, and it's also best to let these things play out for more than six or seven games.

Yep I'm sure he may garner a few looks now on the scouting report as opposed to before.
