With L.J. Peak being named to the Team USA U-19 team this week, it provides a good chance to look back at his freshman season.
After a stirring debut vs St. Francis (NY) and a strong showing against Kansas, Peak never fully displayed the scoring ability many had hoped for until the last games of the season against Utah. An injured ankle, the freshman wall and an increase in competition and scouting reports all contributed to a slow offensive start to his collegiate career. However, starting every game but one - it was evident JTIII's trust in Peak did not waver.
