Winston Salem Christian (NC) Head Coach : Antonio Lowe 2021-22 Record: 24-8
Overview Antonio Lowe is preparing for his third season at Winston-Salem Christian school with some new names and faces this winter. One of the better recruiters as coaches in North Carolina, Lowe reloads year after year. This year could possibly be one of Lowe’s deepest teams. Finishing in second in the HoopStateChampionship last year they are looking to build off the momentum they built last season. They will expect big performances from newcomers Kany Tchanda, Chol Machot, Torey Alston, and Kobe George. While also returning Lewis “Big Lew” Walker, Isaiah Washington, and T.J. Cave. Player Spotlight We start with the combination of Kany Tchanda and Chol Machot in the front court. Two very versatile big men who can space the floor with shooting abilities, run the floor, and protect the rim at a high level. Tchanda rising prospect in the 2024 class coming off a big sophomore campaign and season of 16U with Team United. Tchanda utilizes his length incredibly well to finish, block shots, secure rebounds, and contain ball-handlers on switches.Offensively, he displays touch with either hand, impressive shooting range , and the ability to attack off the bounce consistently. Late addition of 7 footer Chol Machot from Melbourne, Australia, will be one of the most unknown names to start the season but will be a household name by the end of the season. There are not too many players at his size and length that are as versatile as him. At his size, he is able to shoot off the catch and bounce and shoot over his defender consistently. With his length he is able to defend the rim at a very high level. Supporting Cast This may be one of the deepest teams the school has ever had. Starting with Lewis “Big Lew” Walker who has been with coach Lowe all three years at WSC. With his statue this makes him one of the biggest mismatches on the court. Isaiah Washington is also a gifted scorer with great size as a guard. Watch out for transfers Torrey Alston and Kobe George, both will be X factors all year for this team with the versatility they bring on both ends of the floor. This could be the best season from coach Lowe at WSC.
