From the Brunson League to the G-League, Aquille Carr shined back on the courts of Baltimore this past summer before looking ahead to his recent tryout with the Washington Wizards G-League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go.
Wooter Apparel Teams With Aquille Carr On Fresh Customized Gear
This basketball story really has come full circle in a number of ways. About five years ago while living in Europe and covering international basketball, one of the prominent stories at the time was about this ultra-talented kid out of Baltimore known as “Crimestopper” and his plans to jump overseas to play professionally. Headlines were nothing new for Aquille Carr. He made them as a freshman at Patterson Highand and in 2010 after averaging 32 points, six assists and five rebounds to lead Patterson (25-2) to Baltimore City and Class 4A North region titles and a trip to the state title game. The following year, Carr was named the Baltimore Sun All-Metro boys basketball Player of the Year, the same year ESPN chose him as the 2011 High School Basketball Player of the Year. Two years later, Carr was officially a professional — a journey that has spanned these last five years including stops in the NBA G-League, Canada, and most recently another G-League opportunity with the Washington Wizards G-League affiliate the Capital City Go-Go. Yet what’s most refreshing about Carr’s story is how has kept his Baltimore and Brunson League roots alive. We can respect that, especially when Aquille Carr takes time to represent with some of his own fresh Wooter Apparel prior to his G-League workout!
Each year Wooter Apparel works with a number of high school football teams around the US to customize their gear for the season. This year we are proud to cheer on Aliso Niguel High School in Aliso Viejo, California, with the Wolverines donning the teal and black from Wooter Apparel this Fall.
Wooter Football HIts Hard This Season With Aliso Niguel High School
When Aliso Niguel High School takes the football field on Friday nights this season, the Wolverines will be donning their prominent teal and black school colors with a little extra pride thanks to the customized uniforms from Wooter Apparel. Look good, play good. The shine is paying off for head coach Kurt Westling as the Wolverines jump out to an early 6-0 record this season for the school tucked away in the San Joaquin Hills of southern Orange County, California. The Wolverines most recent win (complete with game photos) came in thrilling fashion as the then No. 19th ranked Aliso Niguel defeated No. 25th ranked Pacifica by erasing a 15-point third-quarter deficit and pulled away for a 41-28 victory at Aliso Niguel High. Way to work Wolverines!
