Another talented player from Cleveland High School’s hoops factory has committed to compete at college basketball’s highest level.
Jasen Brooks became the fourth Blue Raider in three years pledged to a Division I program, with the 6-foot-2, 185-pound senior guard committing to the University of California, San Diego after taking an official visit to the Big West Conference program.
PrepHoops.com ranks Brooks as the state of Tennessee’s No. 8 prospect in the class of 2023. He is an explosive playmaker who is strong on the drive, rebounds extremely well for his size and can catch fire from long range.
He scored 30 points against Oak Ridge and 26 against Tyner last season, making five 3-pointers in each game.
“Jasen’s work ethic and drive to improve every part of his game to help our program be successful and to fulfill his dream of playing Division I basketball has been a joy to be a part of,” Cleveland coach Reggie Tucker said.
