Lofton Likes Four, Favors One
Combo guard Chris Lofton from Mason County High School in Maysville, KY has narrowed his list of schools to Cincinnati, Kentucky, Georgia, and Dayton. All but Kentucky have offered a scholarship to the 6-foot-1, 185-pound sharp shooter.
“They have been talking to me a little bit,” Lofton said about the Wildcats.

When asked if he is just waiting for his home state to offer him, he replied, “Not really. I do not like them any better than the other schools.”
In fact, Cincinnati is solidly at the top of Lofton’s list right now.
“They have always been there for me. They have been there a long time.” Lofton added, “I can contribute as a freshman and get some minutes there.”
The coaching of Kentucky, Georgia, and Dayton appeal to Lofton. He also cited the style of play at Kentucky and Georgia as working in their favor.
This weekend he will take an official visit to Dayton. No other visits have been scheduled at this point.
Lofton, the No. 124 ranked player and No. 24 point guard in the Rivals150, would prefer spending most of his time at shooting guard in college.
“I like coming off screens and shooting jumpers. Right now,” he continued, “I am working on my dribbling skills and defense.”
Lofton is not in a rush to make a decision, citing that he may wait to sign in the spring.
