Marlatt mentioned to PHD last night that he has a visit coming up and PHD learned that the top 40 prospect in North Dakota’s senior class has a few suitors despite a recent injury.
“I have an unofficial visit set up for this weekend at Lake Region State College,” Marlatt told PHD. “Minot State and has also been in contact with me.”
Quincey is entering a new stage of his athletic life as Milnor and North Sargent are in their first year together as an athletic program. Between that and an injury that kept Marlatt from Grassroots summer ball, it’s been a time of change and new opportunity.
“I tore my ACL in my second tournament with the North Dakota Phenom this past summer so I'm doing workouts and physical therapy for now,” Quincey said.
“We co-op with North Sargent this year but I'm ready to play with a new team and a great group of guys. We have the talent to take our region so that would be the number one goal.”
Marlatt, Mason Olsen, Jake Hanson, Spencer Brockman, Joe Greenmyer, and Ryder Goolsbey, Hunter Bussman, Ramzy Olson, and Adam Sakry are all seniors that played a lot of time last year as junior at the two schools.
Then you add in all the current junior and sophomore talent and you have a program with high expectations despite a new group that will need to form chemistry.
To prepare for his huge year and to get his leg healthy Marlatt has spent a load of time in the gym to get better in several ways.
“This off-season I just tried to become a better defender and I worked on becoming a better point guard as well,” Marlatt said.
Expect to hear more from Marlatt and the Milnor/North Sargent squad in the winter.
Last year as a junior Marlatt produced 14.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.2 steals per game shooting 42 percent from the floor and 75 percent from the foul line
