SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — Moses Brown is closing in on a college decision.
The 7-foot-2 senior big man from Archbishop Molloy High School said he expects to decide “real soon” and “maybe by the end of next month.”
“I’m going to make a decision real soon,” he said after scoring 21 points with 6 rebounds in an 86-56 loss to DeMatha Catholic at the Hoophall Classic in which Molloy played without injured junior point guard Cole Anthony (bone bruise).
Kentucky head coach John Calipari, Maryland assistant Bino Ranson and UCLA assistant Tyus Edney were among the coaches on hand.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Two sons of retired professional athletes, each considered a top-five high school basketball player in the junior class, led their teams in head-to-head competition in the City of Palms Classic on Tuesday.
The big man’s team won, and he sent the higher-ranked, higher-hyped, Briarwood (N.Y.) Archbishop Molloy, to its Fort Myers, Fla., hotel with the goal of regrouping.
Molloy junior point guard Cole Anthony, son of former NBA point guard Greg Anthony, and 7-foot-2 senior teammate Moses Brown, one of the best guard-post combinations in the nation, combined for 35 points but lost 75-64 to Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) University School in the Classic’s first round at Florida SouthWestern State College’s Suncoast Credit Union Arena.
University School’s Vernon Carey Jr., the 6-9, 245-pound son of former Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Vernon Carey Sr., scored a game-high 23 points and grabbed eight rebounds in leading his team to victory while handing Molloy (2-1) its first loss of the season.
