SHOOTERS SHOOT‼️🐻🏀 #AlwaysUs #LetItFly

Summer camps are right around the corner and 🐻🏀 is happy to offer seven different team shootouts (JV/Varsity/7th-8th Grade Boys) along with a three day youth camp, all during the month of June! We’re looking forward to seeing you on campus this summer!

Think about this. CCHS Basketball standout Eli Sancomb becomes the FIRST-EVER Maroon Knight to win the Bill Evans Award (given to the state's top boys player). Sancomb averaged 24 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists during this year's Class AA state tourney. #wvprepbb

The hardest working kid I know. Addicted to competing. Never been around a more consistent worker than Luke Sancomb 2027 guard was the BEST spark plug in the entire state this year. His gravity shifts every defense! 🎯 Check him out with WV Gold Hoops this spring and summer.

🐻🏀 would like to welcome the newest member of our 2025 men’s basketball recruiting class, Robby Todd. Todd has spent the last two seasons playing for Coach A.W. Hamilton and Eastern Kentucky University where he saw action in fourteen games for the Colonels. #AlwaysUs

Eli Sancomb was the breakout star of PRO16’s opening weekend. The 2026 guard stuffed the stat sheet—19.5 PPG, 7 REB, 5.25 AST, and 3.25 STL—impacting the game in every way. If he keeps this up, don’t be surprised when his 10 low to mid-major offers turn into high majors.

As the 2024-2025 academic year comes to a close here in Pikeville, we are excited to welcome these guys back for what should be an exciting 2025-2026 season! #AlwaysUs 🐻🏀
