The son of BU great Mitchell "JJ" Anderson is on the Oak Hill team that lost to Simeon ion Chicago Thursday.
Here is a quote about Mitchell, Jr before the game:
"The most excited player Thursday night will be Mitchell Anderson, who transferred to Oak Hill last summer from the Public League's Agricultural Science High School.
"It will be like a homecoming for me, and a lot of my family will be there," said the 6-6 Anderson, son of former Public League star Mitchell "J.J." Anderson, who averaged a state-record 43.5 points for now-defunct Metro in 1977-78 and is an assistant coach with the Memphis Grizzlies. "I wasn't doing too well academically, and I came to Oak Hill to improve my grades and become a better all-around player."
The move worked: He's on the honor roll and has been contacted by Northern Illinois and Bradley--his dad's alma mater."
Here are some pics, but Mitchell isn't in any of them, he is #42.
