SanFranPreps.com Player of the Week: Brenden Glapion, senior guard, Washington boys basketball


The early favorite for AAA player of the year, Glapion averaged 20 points per game in the Eagles’ three games of the WCO Showdown at Overfelt High School in San Jose.

Glapion also has a very good supporting cast in fellow seniors Jeremy Jetton and LeVander Moore, but when the pair got into early foul trouble, Glapion had to carry the Eagles almost entirely himself in the WCO final against Piedmont Hills, while the Pirates pressured him and denied him the ball.

“The guy averages 22 points a game and I didn’t want to see him go for 40,” said Piedmont Hills head coach Pete Simos. “He still got his points though. I mean, we were keyed on him and he still had 17. He’s awfully good.”
