Boys Basketball: Sierra Canyon could land talented freshman

| | Comments (0) |

Sierra Canyon of Chatsworth upset Saugus Monday night in a Div. II silver bracket quarterfinal, 47-42.

But that wasn't the whole story.

Sierra Canyon was led by Derrick Newton, a 6'5 forward, who just completed the eighth grade is still only 13 years old.

Newton scored a game high 17 points and showed great poise and finesse for a such a young player.

Newton will definitely be one to watch in the next four years.
