Spartan recruit earns top high school award
The Associated Press DETROIT - When people talk about Kelvin Torbert, this years Mr. Basketball, the word special is used a lot - and not just because of what he does on the court. On Monday, Torbert became the 21st winner of the award. Torbert is headed to MSU next year, joining a long list of Flint standouts whove played for head coach Tom Izzo. Im real excited to go up to East Lansing and play for a coach like coach Izzo and play with players like (last years Mr. Basketball) Marcus Taylor and (1999 Mr. Basketball) Jason Richardson; that caliber of players, Torbert said.
