GABE BRITTON
School: Vista PEAK Prep High School
Year: Senior
Height: 6-foot-6
2022-23 averages: 8.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists
Season highlights: The Bison had a collection of players that made it fun for coach Keenon Clement to come to the gym every day and it was a group that did a lot of winning, as Vista PEAK secured 18 wins (including one over eventual Class 4A state champion Holy Family to open the season) and made it to the Class 5A Sweet 16. Britton came off the football field in the fall to add size and athleticism and he ended up second on the team in scoring and rebounding on his way to 4A/5A City League second team honors. With seven double-digit scoring efforts — topped by a senior-high 19 points against Regis Groff on Feb. 8 — Britton finished over eight points per game on a balanced offense, while he had 11 games with seven or more rebounds. He had one official double-double, while he missed two others by a single rebound. Britton earned selection to the A-Town All-Star Game for the first time.
Britton vs. Aurora teams: vs. Hinkley (11 points, 3 rebounds); vs. Rangeview (2 points, 4 rebounds)
