Wade Dunston, an aggressive 6-3, 180 pound senior shooting guard/swingman from Bullis H.S. in Potomac, Md., turned in some fine performances recently.
Dunston tossed in over 20 points a game for the Bulldogs at the Slam Dunk Beach last month. A strong driver who plays extremely hard, Dunston also has a nose for the basketball and knows how to draw contact on his forays to the basket.

According to Bullis Head Coach Mike Hibbs, Dunston is seriously being looked at this winter by George Mason, Towson and Central Florida. Others who have expressed interest include Hampton, Mt. St. Mary's, Robert Morris, Quinnipiac and Loyola (MD).
Hibbs said that Dunston has yet to qualify academically, though he expects Wade to have the 2.5 GPA in the core. If that is the case, Dunston will need to boost his SAT score to an 820 in order to qualify under NCAA guidelines.
Dunston is not expected to make a college decision until after the basketball season, and the Insiders Report/Rivalshoops.com will keep you abreast of his situation.
