  • Everyone from the novice to the most accomplished basketball player needs to work on fundamentals in the off-season and that is a primary focus of the Blue Storm Boys Basketball School. That is a primary focus of this development and competition program that also develops a greater overall understanding of the game, with a focus on speed and execution.

Cubit directs a Mercersburg program that has produced multiple Division I recruits over the last five years, including Ivy League Player-of-the-Year Ugonna Onyekwe and Stephen Pelle, a Los Angeles Lakers draft choice.
  • Our seasoned staff possesses vast high school, college, and even professional experience, traits that anchor the success of the Blue Storm Boys Basketball School. In addition to dynamic high school coaches and featured clinicians, the staff can feature former Mercersburg players who have continued their careers at schools as diverse as Pennsylvania, Colorado, Miami (FL), Holy Cross, and Shepherd College.
