Head Coach Charlie Pack says he believes Northington II is a special player due to his impact on and off the court.
In this past season, Northington II averaged 16.6 ppg, 5.2 rpg, and shot 42.7% from the 3-point line for the Blazers, but coach Pack sees LeMar as a player that can contribute to the team in more ways than just scoring.
This past season Kentucky Christian finished with a 5-24 record and 8-game losing streak, so work is there to be done, but Northington II, Coach Pack, and the rest of the Knights squad will look to flip the page this fall.
