Christian Kirk to Missouri State

[tropicalshox]

Kirk is a Scout 3 star, 6-7 PF at St. Charles, MO. (West). He is probably the most sought after player on the KC Pump & Run 16U team. He has offers from St. Louis and Southern Illinois. Interest from the Shockers, Illinois, Missouri State, Minnesota, Missouri and Marquette.

The other player on this AAU team that I'm sure we are involved with, at least somewhat, is A.J. Spencer a 6-4 SF/SG from Shawnee Mission, KS.

Both players were already in the 2011 Summary, in the new section at the bottom for Prospects and Others since info on them as of yesterday was limited. I'll move Kirk into the Recruits section ASAP.

Kirk attended the Missouri State's Bracketbuster game against Nevada.

In KC Pump & Run's victory in the 17U championship game Sunday at the Double Pump in Denver Kirk was, "an absolute man inside...high motor kid who attacks the glass, and can also step out and hit the midrange jumper." He took it right to 5 star 6-8 center Angelo Chol.

Rivals gave a school list of offers from Butler, SIU and St. Louis with interest from Missouri State, Missouri, Illinois, Stanford and WSU.

Corey Hillard who the Shockers have interest in, also had a nice game. Rivals' didn't mention WSU this time when giving his list of schools. Missouri State is all over him and he has visited them twice. They remain his only offer.
