Jordan McKenzie, a 6’1″ point guard from Concord, NC announced today that he has ended his college recruitment process. Jordan will sign a full athletic scholarship to play for the Stony Brook Seawolves, who are fresh off a 26-7 season that saw them reach the NCAA Tournament. Jordan came to Hargrave after a standout career at Robinson High School in North Carolina, where he was a 1,000 point scorer and also captured a prestigious state championship during his career.
“Jordan, simply put, is a winner. He does a great job elevating the play of those around him, and, even more importantly, he’s an outstanding young man off the court. He wins on the court, he wins in the classroom, and he wins He’s a coaches’ dream in the way he conducts himself in all phases of life. There is no doubt in my mind that Jordan will help Stony Brook get back to the big dance multiple times,” commented Head Coach A.W. Hamilton.
Jordan was being recruited by Coastal Carolina, Winthrop, Oral Roberts and Jacksonville, but chose Stony Brook after an official visit to their campus last weekend. McKenzie noted that it “felt like home as soon as I got there.”
Be sure to check out Jordan and the rest of the Hargrave Tigers at the “Meet the Tigers” event- Hargrave’s annual midnight madness. The event begins at 7:00pm on Thursday, October 13th.
