Prospect Spotlight: Tagen Pearson (2020)
Nazareth Academy 2020 shooting guard Tagen Pearson is a prospect that jumped on our radar with his play early in the high school season with Nazareth back in December. He didn’t play much on the travel team circuit so it was good to see his progress in July at Spartz Basketball Invite Day. Seems to have added strength since we last saw him. The rising junior was very active getting on the glass for put backs with his quickness from his guard spot. Also has a clean looking shot.
He chatted about his sophomore season.
“My sophomore year went pretty well. I grew as a player and a team. We great as a team and will come back stronger this year.”
What will be his role on the team this upcoming season at Nazareth Academy?
“My role for this upcoming year will being a scorer, but I will also have to get my team into. If I am not into it they are going to be on. I know I can help them. In June we didn’t do that great, but we grew. That is the most important part during the summer. If we continue to grow that will show during school ball time.”
