John
Tatum
wasn’t going
to let a
disappointing
senior
season carry
over to prep
school, even
after his
post-grad
year got off
to a
less-than-ideal
start.
The
6-foot-3,
180-pound
shooting
guard from
Howard High
had hoped
for a
Division I
scholarship
coming out
of high
school, but
a
“frustrating”
senior
season led
to just
junior
college and
Division II
interest. A
full
academic
qualifier,
Tatum
graduated
high school
and left
Maryland for
Southwest
Academy in
Lansing,
Mich.
Unfortunately
for Tatum, a
strong start
quickly
turned sour.
