Tyus Jones was good for 19 in a loss against ranked Eden Prairie last night. I'm really looking forward to following this kid as he progresses through the prep ranks. It's been about 15 years since we've had a prodigy come through Minnesota.
As bizarre as the El-Amin clan seemed at times, it was a lot of fun following him when he burst on the prep scene as a frosh at North. I like seeing an El-Amin in the box scores now for the Polars and always look for his line in the Strib, he got 6 last night.
I plan on making an effort to get to an Apple Valley game this winter. I hope he continues to grow and get better. I really hope he chooses to stay at Apple Valley, gets good grades, and is able to avoid the drama that seems to follow a lot of star preps. I wouldn't mind hearing reports of him wearing Gopher gear also.
