I’ll admit, I hadn’t heard of Kellen Mitchell until I saw his name on Peter’s writing schedule. I started doing some research and was intrigued. Kellen Mitchell wasn’t your typical walk-on and his path to Gonzaga was also atypical. A star as a high school sophomore in Michigan, missing in action at an elite prep school in California and the focus of shortest highlight video I’ve ever seen.
Born and raised in Orange County, California, Kellen was still in grade school when his family moved to Michigan. When eligible, he enrolled in Western Michigan Christian, a private school known for its strong athletic programs.
