CHICAGO — Charlie Moore, the pride of Morgan Park High School on the far South Side, has returned to his hometown for what he hopes will be two of the most important games of his six-year college basketball career.
“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime type of experience. I’m just enjoying my time here with my guys, my teammates, my coaching staff,” said Moore, a 5-foot-11 super senior point guard, who after spending one year at Cal, two at Kansas and two at DePaul is finishing up at Miami (Florida).
Moore, a starter who averages 12.7 points, 4.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds a game, will take the court for the Hurricanes in a Sweet 16 game against Iowa State on Friday night at the United Center.
