QUOTES

Antonio Curro, the National Recruiting Editor for NY2LASports.com, said about PJ in September: A lead guard who hit the spring looking to score and by the back end of the spring had elevated his play to being a more complete floor general that could distribute, defend, and score, Pipes was impressive in terms of both his production and his willingness to adjust and improve. Pipes has his best years on the hardwood in front of him and a lot of schools sleeping on him will eventually regret it at the next level. This kid can play.

Troy Johnson, AAU Coach: Shawn “PJ” Pipes comes from a strong line of recent guards from our program (Aaron Jordan, Illinois; Cole Gentry, South Dakota State; KJ Santos, UIC) to sign Division I scholarships the past couple of years. Shawn's leadership, shooting, and natural ability to score are all attributes that will help the basketball program immediately. His competitiveness and leadership skills are strong points that he will have the moment he steps on campus. He seems to thrive in high pressure and intense situations. He received the right offer from Green Bay, a program that truly believes in him.
