03 Feb 2024 Greyson Ealy – Quitman (501 Basketball Team 2024)

Greyson Ealy has been a standout multi-sport athlete for Quitman, and as his final year as a Bulldog comes to a close, he’s focused on finishing as strongly as possible.

“As a team, our goal is to come into every game with a killer mindset and play our hearts out every game,” he said. “We’ll achieve that by coming into every practice and every lift with a chip on our shoulders.”

Basketball has been a constant presence in Ealy’s life, and it’s the game he fell in love with “immediately.”

“All my family played it growing up, so really I wanted to be like everybody else,” he said. “My favorite basketball memories are probably just hooping at my aunt and uncle’s house on a little dirt patch with a crooked basketball goal. It gave me brothers that I’ll have for a lifetime.” Midway through this season, Ealy is averaging 15.8 points and 6.4 rebounds per game.

“Greyson’s strengths on the floor are finishing around the basket, shooting, his speed and jumping ability,” said new Quitman Head Coach Josh Sensabaugh. “He is a role model to the younger students, and he’s an ambassador of the school. Greyson is very well-known in the community because of his active involvement in his local church, as well as his willingness to volunteer any chance he gets. He has helped coach numerous pee wee football and basketball teams.”

Ealy plans to play college football. He holds offers from Air Force, Ouachita Baptist University, Arkansas Tech, Henderson State and more.
