His nickname is Howie - short for howitzer. He has the most powerful strike I have ever seen in person. His vertical leap (especially with a step or two) is also incredible. I have a photo from R3PL Regionals a couple of years ago that shows him at full leap on a corner - his head is two feet above everyone else. His natural ability is very, very special. I understand that he doesn't want to play beyond HS. If true, that's really a shame. He could be great in college, and beyond.
