Chris Blanton

I am excited to announce my commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at King University! I would like to thank my family, coaches, teammates, and most importantly Jesus Christ for helping me along this journey. Also, thank you Coach Hill, Coach Glosson, and Coach Berry for giving me this opportunity and Coach Koch for helping me with the recruiting process. Excited for the next 4 years! #RollNado @KingU_Baseball @coachcglosson @jbhill19 @rayberry_14 @BBUniversityWNC @BaseballWatauga @USAPrimeCoastal

Our fleet of school buses stands out even more from every angle because they are frequently washed. We are thankful that our Transportation Department is dedicated to ensuring WCS school buses are SAFE and CLEAN! 🧼🔧

6’1 ‘26 Cade Keller (Foothills Basketball) continues to provide a valuable dynamic to this group. Lethal shooting threat with a high IQ and the ability to cut, spot up, or attack off the bounce. Willing passer with a nice array of finishes & floaters around the basket #PhenomLive

Good tournament this weekend with @USAPrimeCoastal. Went 6 for 12 with two doubles, HBP, & 4 stolen bases. Looking forward to our next tournament in FL! @BBUniversityWNC @UncommittedStud @coachchubb31 @dcbritt26 @Bill_Steven37 @cookcameron05 @bsballcoach_sjc @HendersonHayes9 @coachjchester @bhodgey07 @alexraburn @agbaseball9 @smithkermit @hankster38 @StevenHodge3 @BaseballWatauga

6’4 2026 Bryce Peters had a great showing this weekend. Big piece for Foothills. A versatile scorer who thrives on his shot-making ability and keeps constant pressure on defenses. Adds tools on the defensive end that make him adaptable and valuable to any program. @brycepeters75

6’4 ‘26 Bryce Peters (Foothills Basketball) has obvious appeal. Wiry, athletic wing with ridiculous length and useful versatility. Consistently hits shots and applies pressure at the rim. Love the way he’s rebounding and disrupting opponents defensively #PhenomLive

2026 6’5 W Bryce Peters avg 16.5 pts, 6.5 reb, 3 stl, and 2 blk on Day 2 at the @Phenom_Hoops #PhenomLive as @FHB2026 advances to 4-0. @brycepeters75 is a long, athletic wing with a high motor. Elite catch & shoot 3PT shooter, strong finisher, and uses length to guard 1-5.

2026 6’0 G Cade Keller avg 16.5 pts, 2.5 ast, and 2 stl on Day 1 as @FHB2026 goes 2-0 at @Phenom_Hoops #PhenomLive. @CadeKeller5 is a certified bucket-getter. Quick, shifty guard who scores at all three levels, has good handle, and is active defensively.
