Better Than Ben Gordon?

While most local college basketball fans will be focused on UConn's bout with PC tonight, there's an intriguing high school matchup that will unfold in New Haven.

Mount Vernon High takes on Hillhouse tonight at the New Haven Athletic Center. Mount Vernon features a top-notch talent in 6-foot point guard Jabarie Hinds. He's getting serious interest from schools like Louisville, Wake Forest, Seton Hall and St. John's (though apparently not UConn). His high school coach, Bob Cimmino, says Hinds "may be the best player I've ever coached."

Cimmino, of course, also coached Ben Gordon at Mount Vernon.
