With no less than five players from the class of 2011 who could wind up playing at the next level, college recruiters already have been spotted at Hamilton games. Wisconsin assistant Howard Moore was among several college coaches in attendance at Craig, and more figure to make their way to the southside of Milwaukee to watch Hamilton this season.

Topping the list of potential collegiate prospects for Hamilton is Harris, a multi-skilled 6-foot-7 forward who just might be the state’s top prospect in the sophomore class.

“He’s a guard,” Diener said of Harris, who played on the varsity a year ago at Bay View. “He’s our best passer. He’s a tremendous passer. He might be the best passer I’ve ever had in terms of seeing the floor and making all the different little passes. Now his decision making isn’t where it needs to be, but in terms of the mechanics of passing, he’s just really, really good. He’s also very skilled for that size. We need to get some weight on him and some strength. Weight lifting will be very important with all of our guys.”
