New faces at College Park
NEW FACES: New coach, new Cavs, but No. 17 College Park still playoff bound
17 — COLLEGE PARK CAVALIERS
Mr. College Park, coach Clifton McNeely, went out on top.
The only head coach in College Park High School history, McNeely led the Cavs to the State Final Four before retiring — leaving a legacy few programs could match.
But the cupboard is far from bare.
Kenneth Stephens takes over the reins, charged with maintaining the standard set by a legend. Returning to the huddle are seniors Robert Matthews and Mauricio Martinez, while juniors Tyson Forrest and Jayden Heidleberger are poised to take on expanded roles in 2025–26.
Sophomore Quintuyn Buckmon, following in the footsteps of his brothers, continues the family tradition of leadership in the Cavs’ program.
Yes, there are new faces this season, but the message is clear: at College Park, the bar remains the same — and Stephens is ready to keep it there.

McDonalds All-American and Philadelphia 76er Quentin Grimes was the standard for College Park.
