Austin Swartz is putting himself on the map this summer with his stellar play on the Nike EYBL circuit, finishing the season as the third leading scorer in the regular season after averaging 21.0 points per contest through 17 games.
The volume scorer shot 44.3 percent from the field,
37.2 percent from 3-point range and 88.9 percent from the free throw
line while adding 3.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game in the regular
season.
Swartz had a monster weekend for Boo Williams in Session 4 of EYBL action, averaging 25.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals per outing while shooting 44.3 percent from the field, 32.6 percent from 3-point range and 90.3 percent from the free throw line to lead his team to a record of 4-1 across five games.
The 6-foot-4 guard is currently regarded as the No. 129 prospect in the Class of 2024 according to 247Sports and holds 20 scholarship offers including Clemson, Connecticut, Florida State, Houston, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Miami, Mississippi State and North Carolina State among others.
Behind leading scorer Swartz, Boo Williams finished regular season action with a record of 10-7, which is good enough to qualify for the Peach Jam in July.
Last season as a sophomore, the three-star guard was named CISAA Player
of the Year after averaging 23 points, seven assists and five rebounds
per game to lead
Cannon (Concord, N.C.) to a record of 28-7.
