A top-five prospect in 2025, Canton native Darryn Peterson was “excited as ever” to receive an offer from Ohio State in August and continues to raise his profile this spring.
on April 27, as his favorite Buckeye. When comparing their position and size, it’s not hard to see why. Both prolific scoring guards and Ohio natives, it only makes sense that Peterson would look to Branham as a role model. Given the Big Ten Freshman of the Year’s projected first-round NBA draft status next month, he figures to be an ideal mentor for Peterson.
And if you ask Peterson, putting on more weight to add strength over the summer is one of his top priorities as he heads into year two of varsity basketball. Attending a private school for the first time as a high school freshman, Peterson’s transition was a rather smooth one considering he earned a spot on the Ohio Prep Sportswriters Association Division II All-Ohio first team this past year.
“I loved it. Going there, private school, first year at a private school. First year of varsity basketball, it wasn’t what I expected,” Peterson said. “They were a lot stronger, bigger, I had to adjust. … It’s been a good year. Fell in the district championship, wanted to get a little farther, but worked hard that year. Coming back next year stronger.”
