Tribune-Review: Offers rolling in for Moon’s Walsh

Offers rolling in for Moon’s Walsh – Pittsburgh Tribune-Review:

“Brian Walsh used an impressive performance at the Pittsburgh NextFactors camp to earn a coveted invitation to the Reebok ABCD camp July 4-9 in Teaneck, N.J.

“Walsh then shot for the moon the way he shoots for Moon.

“The 6-foot-4 shooting guard is hot property after making ABCD’s underclassman all-star game and being ranked its No. 16 shooting guard by HoopScoop.

” ‘I told him, if he did well, it would change his life,’ Moon coach Jeff Ackermann said, ‘and it did.’

“Walsh has since received scholarship offers from Akron, Duquesne, St. Joseph’s and Memphis, where coach John Calipari, a Moon alum, recently saw Walsh while visiting his alma mater for a youth basketball camp.

” ‘It definitely changed my life,’ Walsh said. ‘When I got back, I was getting blown up from all these coaches. It’s crazy how one good camp can change your future.’

“Pitt, Clemson, Maryland, Ohio, Penn State and Xavier also are showing strong interest in Walsh, who led three-time defending WPIAL Class AAA champion Moon in scoring (15 points) and rebounding (eight) last season. …”
