While most high school athletes are looking for a college to take them on, Skyline’s Robert Edwards is going a different route.
The 6-foot-5 center committed in April to play basketball for Phillips Exeter Academy, a prep school in New Hampshire, next year.
“I think it’s something where he can develop, get stronger, and play more of perimeter, a three or four position,” Skyline basketball coach Ty Shippen said. “If he’s going to play the four, he’s playing behind a 6-8 kid. So he’s got his work cut out for him, and it’s going to make him better.”
Edwards averaged 14.1 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game as a senior.
