City Hardwood

    



City Hardwood follows legendary coach Tiny Morton, famous for developing elite college prospects and NBA players from his talented squad. Tiny knows better than anyone that being a high school coach in Brooklyn means focusing not only on the Xs & Os but also on keeping young men in the gym and out of trouble.

As always, this year's Lincoln squad has its sights set firmly on a City Championship; this time, however, they���ll be led by an underclassman. ���Super sophomore��� Isaiah Whitehead exploded onto the scene as a freshman to become a national name. With colleges already making him offers, Isaiah is next in a long line of superstars to emerge from Coach Morton's tutelage, a list which includes Stephon Marbury, Lance Stephenson and Sebastian Telfair.

The Lincoln Athletic Department has always considered itself a family, but this season Coach Morton���s son Treyvon will be playing for his father, making it truly a family affair. In addition to following Lincoln both on and off the court, City Hardwood will cover the most compelling basketball stories in the Public School Athletic League (PSAL) including: Lincoln���s rival, the reigning City champ, Bedford- Stuyvesant���s Boys & Girls High School led by Coach Ruth Lovelace; and the top girls��� teams, including longtime powerhouse Manhattan���s Murry Bergtraum High School and Thomas Jefferson High in Brooklyn.
