Featured Athlete of the month, Corean Nelson

Featured Athlete of the month, Corean Nelson

Corean, a point guard from Sumter, South Carolina, has been named the featured January male athlete. Currently, Corean is averaging 15.2 ppg while shooting 55.5% from the field. In addition, Corean averages 4.1 rebounds per game and 2.9 assists per game. Corean is a 3-level scorer who can score in the paint, from mid-range, and from beyond the arc. He is starting the year off strong, scoring 21 and 18 points in the first two games of the new year. When asked about Corean's play, coach David Mullins had this to say: "What makes Corean so special is that he is a true two-way player (a dynamic scorer who can defend). Having a player that puts the same amount of effort on the defensive side of the court as the offensive side is often what separates the good from the great players at our level."
