Ahmed Named Player of the Week

Esa Ahmed-6'6 Fr. C Shaker Heights

Freshman standout Esa Ahmed, a 6'6, 200 lb. center from Shaker Heights, was recently named Cleveland.com "Player of the Week" for the week of January 27, 2012.  According to the article, Ahmed led his Shaker Heights squad to a 61-58 overtime win over Warren Harding. In the game, the freshman finished with 16 points and 12 rebounds.

Ahmed's success comes as no surprise to us, as Buckeye Prep has watched him dominate the competition at AAU events and at our elite showcases for several years. From our advantage point, Ahmed has long since established himself as a top 5 player in the state in his class! Congrats to Esa and his family for this outstanding accomplishment!
