One of the state’s top scoring wing guards has been dismissed from school and his eligibility status for the 2009-10 season remains in doubt.
Joshua Cameron, a 6-foot-1 senior, was dismissed from Kenosha Christian Life School last Friday and is now attending Racine Park.
“Josh will be petitioning the WIAA to be allowed to play this season,” Kenosha Christian Life School coach Steve Powell said. “This is all I can say about the situation. Josh broke school policies and was dismissed.”
Ranked No. 20 among state seniors by WisSports.net, Cameron averaged 24.0 points per game as a junior after averaging 20.0 ppg as a sophomore when he attended Parkway Christian School in Oak Creek.
An athletic, strong and skilled guard who can get on a roll from the perimeter or get to the basket and finish in the lane, Cameron has a very quick first step toward the basket. He earned first-team all-league honors in the Southern Division of the Midwest Classic Conference as a junior and played on the grassroots scene last summer for the Wisconsin Force.
Powell said recently Cameron was receiving recruiting interest from a number of scholarship schools, including Ball State, Charleston, Columbia, North Dakota and SIU-Edwardsville.
If the WIAA grants eligibility for Cameron at Park, he’ll be joining a veteran team picked by many to win the Southeast Conference championship.
Coach Jim Betker returns three starters from a club that went 18-4 in senior guards Issaih Bridges (5-8) and Tre Edwards (6-0), along with senior forward Stanley McKenzie (6-4). In addition, the Panthers return five additional senior lettermen and welcome talented newcomers off a 19-1 junior varsity team and an 18-1 freshmen squad.
