Oneonta boy's basketball is turning heads, and with four sophomores in the starting lineup, they want you to know that this is just the beginning. Headlining that youth movement is our latest Amphenol Aerospace Athlete of the Week, Brady Carr.

If you don't know about the Yellowjackets now, just wait, because they're coming.

"I expect them to do great things, honestly," said senior center Makya Morrison. "And I think obviously their senior year, they're going to be such a dominant and great team. They could win STAC, they could win sectionals, maybe even states. They're just they're great players, all great people. And I think they'll go far."

A journey that began years ago.

"We've been playing together since we were really little," said sophomore point guard Britten Zeh. "And it's kind of cool now to see us all starting on varsity, that's what we've been waiting for."

The four are headlined by number 40.

"We knew pretty early that he was going to be a good player for our program," said head coach Brad Zeh.

Brady Carr, one of the tallest players in Section IV, but if you ask his coach, it isn't just his height that impresses everyone.

"Just watching his stroke, he shoots the ball pretty effortlessly," Zeh said. "And it seems to me every game he seems to be extending out further and further. He pretty much has the green light when he's open to shoot."

That was never more true than against Oneonta's vaunted rivals, Norwich. After a slow scoring first quarter, Carr took off, drilling three treys in the second frame, right in front of the opposing student section.

"Well, it was kind of low scoring in the beginning," sophomore guard/forward Brady Carr said. "It didn't take many points to pull away because it was so low scoring. I just let me get some shots up and try to get us ahead."

Brady scored 28 in that win and on Wednesday, the Jackets and Carr's 22 points put Section IV on notice, taking Johnson City down to the wire on the road.

"He takes a weight off my shoulders every once in a while," Britten Zeh said. "But most of the time it's me with the ball and me passing to him and him scoring."

Although Oneonta ended up losing, the Jackets secured the three-seed in the Class B playoffs with their eyes set on Watkins Glen.

"We're always working hard, so we're in the off-season, we're getting better, in season we're getting better," Carr said. "It feels great to win. Have all our hard work pay off."
