Son of Belizean Basketball Player Scores Big Win in Academics

And in news from the Belizean Diaspora, the son of well-known Belizean basketball star Darwin Carter was recently featured on KTLA News in Los Angeles.  Not for his basketball skills like his dad, but because he has chosen an entirely different path to success.  Jay’len Carter did love the sport, but the downtime from COVID-19 caused him to pivot and throw his all into his schoolwork. He got such good grades; he became valedictorian of his high school graduating class. Here is that story from KTLA.
