“Justin Byerly is a voice that is trusted by travel and high school coaches alike in the state of North Carolina. I’m excited to have him join our team as a thought leader in one of the best basketball states in the nation,” HoopSeen editor Justin Young said. 

“He will help connect student-athletes and college coaches through our events and our HoopSeen search platform. We are excited to strengthen our position in a state like North Carolina and with someone with such credibility as Justin Byerly.”
