Kahliel Spear '18 Recruiting Profile

My parents and past experiences have shaped who I am today. My parents are college graduates who have instilled the importance of education and being an upstanding young man. In me, you would be getting a coachable player whose star is on the rise. I possess character and morals that would represent the school and program on and off the court.

In addition to basketball I have played other sports: Football, Baseball and Swimming; however, basketball is the sport I have been most passionate about since I was first introduced to it at the age of six. I have had individual and team success, but have also had to overcome disappointment and adversity, which has made me grow as a person.

My academic goals for high school are to graduate in the top ten percent of my class, and receive either an academic or athletic scholarship so that I can further my education and play basketball at the next level.

I have unique physical characteristics and a skillset that allows me to be an impact player on both ends (offensive and defensive) of the court. My hand size is larger than most NBA players, and I have a size 16 foot along with a wingspan nearing 7 feet. Our district 14-5A in Texas is going to be really competitive as there are several talented players and teams hungry for a championship.  I look forward to the challenge of leading my team (The Colony Cougars) to its first District championship since 2007.
