Grady had another big week, scoring 24 points and pulling down 6 rebounds in the Pirates 59-48 victory over arch-rival Fowler this past Tuesday night.

He is the team's leading scorer, averaging over 18 points per game.  And he crossed the 1,000 career point plateau earlier this season.

Grady's Pirates are undefeated in CMAC play and he looks to lead P-W to another deep run in the Division 3 state tournament next month.

He is an excellent student, carrying a 3.6 grade point average.  He plays AAU basketball in the off-season.  And in his free time, he likes to golf and softball with his friends and family.
