Last season, Davis averaged 28 points per game for coach Ammirante's basketball team and finished with the third most points for Mr. Basketball in his division.

He is going to have to decide which sport to play in college. Ohio State has expressed early interest on the football side. A lot of schools want to bring him in as a football player.
