Khary Moore Is Still Open
Khary Moore, a 6-4, 180-pound swingman from Bishop Ford High School, in Brooklyn, New York, also plays for the Washington Heights Warriors AAU program. Khary averaged 10 points and 5 rebounds for Bishop Ford last season.
Khary is hearing from Charleston Southern, Marist, Niagara, Colgate, and UMBC. None of the schools have offered yet, although Charleston Southern is believed to be close to offering.

"I'm hearing from a lot of MAAC schools, along with Charleston Southern, Colgate, and UMBC," Moore said. "I'm going to take a visit to Charleston Southern, but I don't know when. I had an in-school visit with Charleston Southern head coach (Jim Platt) two weeks
ago. They've offered me an official visit whenever I want to take it."
Charleston Southern is establishing a veritable pipeline from the Big Apple blacktop to the Big South program, with two New York City Catholic league products on coach Jim Platt's roster. Former Archbishop Molloy standout Ed O'Neil was a Big South
all-rookie team member last season as the Buccaneers' point guard, while former Molloy lead guard Thomas Harrison joins O'Neil in the team's backcourt this season.
"I'm not sure where else I'm going to visit yet," Moore said. "I'd like to go to a place where I'm comfortable, where I'll get a good education, and where I'll be able to play. Basically, a place where I fit in.
He added: "I think I'm going to decide in the spring."
Khary carries an 88 average in the classroom, and scored 980 on the SAT the first time he took it. Khary just took the test again this past week.
Moore is a long and athletic swingman who
handles the ball well. He can knock down the three, but needs to work on his consistency shooting the ball.
