Class of 2023 Cathedral center Xavier Booker lands scholarship offer from Indiana

Xavier Booker is the kind of kid that doesn’t talk much, but smiles a lot.

The 6-foot 11-inch center is a rising junior at Cathedral High School in Indianapolis and before Wednesday, had already received offers from about nine different schools, such as Purdue, Iowa, Kansas State and LSU.

But Booker doesn’t talk about it. He doesn’t act any different from the other kids. He goes to work on his game every day like everyone else.

“You go from nothing to all of a sudden, being a name that everybody’s talking about,” Cathedral head coach Jason Delaney said.
