About JAIDENBLAKE GASTON

---

   Jaidenblake Gaston had an impressive basketball career, playing AAU with  the Riverside Hawks (NY) from 3rd through 8th grade, and the Aim High Eagles  from 9th through 11th grade (NY). Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic  forced him to miss his freshman year of high school basketball. However,  he went on to play varsity for three years at Msgr. McClancy High  School, where he scored over 1,000 points. Gaston's standout performance  earned him selection to the New York State Sports Writers Association  Class 'AA' All-State 2nd team in 2024, after being named to the Catholic High School Athletic Association  'A' All-League team for three consecutive years from 2021-2024.  Averaging an outstanding 20.5 points and 5 assists per game, he was the  top scorer in the CHSAA 'A' Division. Gaston's hard work culminated in  him being named champion after winning the CHSAA 'A' Intersectional City  Championship with McClancy HS at Fordham University on March 1, 2024. Looking ahead, his  goal is to play college basketball while pursuing a Master's Degree in  Criminal Justice.
