Joshua Mervis '22 Recruiting Profile

I am a very athletic and a strong 5'11" scorer.  I spend most of my time playing against my 6'1" junior brother and his friends/teammates.  He is very good and continues to push me to be better than he is.  I led my team to a 2nd place 3A State finish in 8th grade in Illinois.  I have been told by many coaches and referees I am one of the best players in the state.  I can score from anywhere on the court and especially driving to the rim.  I am also a great shot blocker and defender.  I play defense with my chest and feet.  The more up-tempo the game the better I play.  I am also a good student athlete, with a GPA of 3.6.
