Julius Walker hopes every game he plays will expand his future opportunities.

The Greenwood senior may be the top player in his class that most fans aren’t familiar with, but Walker hopes basketball scholarship offers will pile on as his final year of high school continues. Walker scored 32 points in Greenwood’s 60-51 upset of No. 8-seeded Reeds Spring to open the Gold Division of the 71st annual Greenwood Blue and Gold Tournament Monday morning at JQH Arena.

“It’s been a really long time since Greenwood has won a first round game, and this is the first Blue and Gold game we’ve won since I’ve been in high school,” Walker said.
