Max McClure, a 6-foot-2 sophomore guard at Franklin High School near the North Carolina and Georgia line is making his own name for himself out in Macon County. You might remember the name McClure from last year as his brother, Miles McClure lit up the score sheets at the same school and is now playing at Western Carolina University as a preferred walk-on. The younger McClure is averaging 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game for The Panthers and has helped them to a 10-2 record and a 4-0 overall record in their conference.
