Middleton played at New Jersey’s Patrick School his second season, then moved to Sunrise Christian for the 2021-22 campaign.
Middleton visited KU unofficially for the Kentucky game last January. Middleton also at one point had Kansas State, Xavier, DePaul, Penn State, Oklahoma State, Arizona State and Texas Tech on his roster.
“Who can be the most honest (and) which school best matches my game,” Middleton told prospectinsight.com, asked him what he was looking for in a college. “I don’t want to go to a school where I can’t fit in with their offense and defense. I want to go to a school that helps me on and off the pitch. Right now, I’m a wing. I can play point guard, but I want to transition to more of that.
From Middleton, Sunrise Christian coach Luke Barnwell told Zagsblog.com“He is gifted and has a good sense of the game. Scotty is a willing passer and is essential for us on the defensive side of the pitch.
