Boys Basketball: South Feature Athlete - Charleroi's Tony Bristol
Name: Tony Bristol
High School: Charleroi
Grade: 12
Sport: Basketball
Position: Guard
Background info: Bristol, a 5-foot-8 point guard, averages a team-high 18.8 points for the Cougars. Bristol was just a part-time starter as a junior, but has stepped up big time this season, so much so that coach Bill Wiltz calls Bristol the top point guard in the Class AA Section 4. Bristol scored 22 points in a 70-69 win against Brownsville last Friday, dropping 14 of those points in the fourth quarter. He scored a career-high 36 points in a season-opening win at Bentworth.
Coach Bill Wiltz said: “He had a really good end of the season last year, and we knew with his quickness and his experience we would have to rely on him a lot this season. He’s a penetrator and a scorer. He’s got extremely good quickness, can beat defenders off the dribble and can get to the rim very well.”
