New Heights takes Super 64 title
In a few weeks, Washington will enroll at Ottumwa (Iowa) Indian Hills Community College. Before the 6-foot-8 insider made his way to junior college, he wanted to help his New York City-based New Heights squad finish the summer in style. That's exactly what it did as New Heights held off the high-scoring Milwaukee Rebels for an 82-75 title game win in the 17U division of the Adidas Super 64.

Jordan Washington used his strength and feel for the game to lift New Heights.
A power player through and through, Washington was a force on the interior. Instead of overwhelming athleticism, he uses strength, feel for play in the lane and determination around the rim to be a strong scorer despite being mostly an under-the-rim finisher.

Washington was awarded the MVP.

"I just wanted to go out there and fight hard," he said. "I love playing physical. That's my time down there. I love playing down there on the box. Most people want to shoot jumpers, but my thing is playing right down in that box. I feel like I can post everybody up and score every time."

Ahigh-end three-star prospect, Washington says he has gotten interest from Arizona, Marquette, Villanova, Xavier, Miami, Cincinnati and many other Big 12 and Big East programs. He'll likely be one of the most heavily recruited junior college players over the next few years, and he's excited about his opportunity to get ready for Division I ball.

"After my two years at JUCO, I'm going to find out what I'm going to do," Washington said. "I'm looking forward to it. I'm going to go down there and get in shape and get prepared for a major university."

I asked him who Fred was specifically watching and he replied: @cubbienation: @Cade4ISU DeWayne Benjamin


Here is his Rivals profile. Interesting that it says high next to Iowa State.

Benjamin is meeting with the Cincinnatti coaches today so there appears to be some competition.

This is pretty good news. Won't hurt to get a few JUCO's to even things out. Would have preferred a couple high profile guys, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

From what I saw he appears to play a lot like Ejim, not sure how far along his rebounding is because those are never in highlight videos but he can dunk and has a formidable shot.

Can we confirm that he's 6'8" with or without the high-top fade?

Dang I wish Washington would be a 2014 recruit. We could certainly use him next year!

I wonder if this means bad news on the Cunningham front as they play the same spot...
