ESPN 100 shooting guard Stanford Robinson (Fairfax, Va.) announced on Wednesday he will be attending national prep power Findlay College Prep (Henderson, Nev.) for his senior season.
The 6-foot-4 Indiana commit helped Paul VI to a 35-3 record last season and its first WCAC title.
"Paul VI is a great school. It's just I felt like I needed to play in a great situation," Robinson told the Washington Post. "That's what Findlay Prep is, it's just a higher notch, one notch up. Taking my game to another level. I feel like it could prepare me more than Paul VI could give me."
Robinson will join fellow ESPN 100 prospects Nigel Williams-Goss (Happy Valley, Ore.), Allerik Freeman (Charlotte, N.C.) and Christian Wood (Palmdale, Calif.) for the Pilots next season.
