Marshall Has Visits On Tap

Justin Marshall, a bouncy 6'7'' 205 pound power forward from Christ The King High School in Middle Village, New York, has become a hot commodity among mid-major programs in the Northeast.

Marshall recently finished up an official visit at St. Peter's. He recently had an in-home visit with the MAAC school, as well as in-homes with Iona and Drexel. Justin will host Boston University for an in-home visit this week. The two MAAC programs and BU have been most active in Marshall's recruitment. Central Connecticut has also been involved. Some other schools that had previously expressed interest, like Hartford, Hofstra, and Rider, are no longer involved.

In addition to Bob Leckie's program at St.Peter's, Marshall plans on taking official trips to Iona and Boston University. He has already visited Iona unofficially.

Marshall is a wiry shot-blocker who is quick off his feet. Justin has a considerable wingspan, and runs the floor well. Strength is something he'll need to work on for the next level. Marshall sports a soft touch from mid-range on out. He has decent footwork and has developed a turnaround jumper that he hits with good consistency.

Marshall, who is a member of Artie Cox's Sonday Express AAU program, was a mainstay at the Five Star Camp this summer and was instrumental in The New York Ravens' run to The Big Time Tournament title in Las Vegas, hopping aboard for that event. Marshall is currently playing at the IS8 league in Queens with Sonday.

Justin carries an 83 scholastic average, and has scored 850 on the SAT.
