St. Benedict’s small forward hits the Rumble with the Raising Champions AAU team
It has been a quiet spring for Mike Poole as he has made the switch over from the NY Panthers to the Raising Champions on the AAU circuit. So far, his only major event has been the Pittsburgh Jam Fest, so the St. Benedict’s of Newark (NJ) small forward is looking forward to getting on the court this weekend at Fordham University.
“For me [the] Rumble is a great chance to show New York I haven’t fell off a bit and that I’m even better then when I left NY,” said Poole.
When NBE saw Poole in early April, he was showcasing his talent at the Hoop Group Elite Top 100 of New York on the St. John’s campus. He is looking forward to the Rumble in the Bronx as a “place to prove myself” and a good showing against the top competition could spur Poole for a big summer.
Playing at St. Benedict’s has its advantages and Poole has been seen in many high profile events on the high school scene the last year. Of late, three colleges have been showing the most attention on the recruiting front and Poole is feeling them as well.
“New schools such as Kansas State, Flordia International and Providence are all new and they really like me,” Poole told NBE when asked if any new inquiries from colleges have been made. “The three new schools really stand out and are my top three as of now.”
The Rumble in the Bronx is the ultimate proving ground. Mike Poole will be looking to make a statement to those watching in the stands and matching up with him on the court this weekend, so, if your stopping by at Fordham University this weekend, check him out and the Raising Champions in action!
