After checking at Catawba College on Wednesday, we headed just about 30 minutes down the road to check in on Mooresville high school. It is a program led by Coach Moore and is one that continues to put in the work to get better each year. When watching this team during practice, you can see that they are going to have some nice pieces this year in hopes of making some noise. Check out who we saw on the court in our latest open gym report.

One other senior to watch is Luke Kennedy, who knocked down shots and understands his role on the team while playing hard on both ends.
Mooresville will also have a few juniors to watch out for. 2023 Kyrell Shaw, who wasn
