“Kam Farris is the best pure basketball player in the state. You have to guard him 28 feet from the hoop and he hits shots that you simply can’t stop. He can get to the rim and finish and he has tremendous touch.”
Sol Bayer-Pacht
Head Coach at South Burlington High

The 6-foot-2, 175-pound junior guard had led the Green Knights to a 17-2 record and a berth in the Division 1 state tournament at the time of his selection.

A First Team All-State and All-Metro honoree, he was also named to the Vermont Basketball Coaches Association Dream Dozen each of the past two seasons and was selected to the USA TODAY’s ALL-USA Vermont First Team.

Academic Achievement

Farris has maintained a B average in the classroom. He will begin his senior year of high school this fall.
