Heading into Wednesday’s Division 4 South first round match up against South Shore Voc. Tech, Avon senior guard Saleek Marshall sits 16 points away from reaching the elite 2,000-point club.

Marshall, a six-year member of the varsity squad and four-year captain, is averaging well over 20 points per game after a junior campaign in which he averaged 22.1 points per game.

If Marshall does eclipse the 2,000-point mark, Avon will join Catholic Memorial as the only school in the state with three 2,000-point scorers. The most recent Panther to reach 2,000 points was Shante Dezrick in 2010.
