STATS -- Despite his team's sub-.500 record, the 5-foot-9 sophomore averaged 18 points, six assists and four rebounds in his team's first 11 games in the difficult Baltimore City League.

SIDELINES -- Sharp, 16, earned a B in his favorite subject, English. Although he doesn't play tennis, he admires the athleticism and strategies of professional tennis players and tries to apply what he's seen to the basketball court. Sharp is considered a future college prospect by most observers, who believe he can be among the area's top players during his junior and senior seasons. Sharp is a product of the prestigious Cecil Kirk Amateur Athletic Union program, which has produced athletes such as Juan Dixon, Rudy Gay and McDonogh's DaJuan Summers - all of whom have been All-Metro Players of the Year.
