Russellville senior shooting guard Taelon Peter hasn’t been on the radar of college coaches until recently. It appears his recruiting is just starting to heat up.

Peter, 6-4, 180 pounds, is averaging 17 points, 7 rebounds, 4.5 assist and 3.5 steals while shooting 42% from beyond the three-point line for the Cyclones this season.

He played in one event with the 16-under Woodz Elite last spring, but the majority of his spring and summer was spent with a local team which limited his exposure to college coaches.

“He played on a local summer team,” Russellville Coach Kyle Pennington said.
