Liberty class of 2022 commit DJ Moore is reclassifying to the class of 2021 and will enroll at Liberty this fall. Moore is a 6’3″ guard from Worthington, Ohio where he attends Worthington Christian School. He chose the Flames over offers from Ohio and Miami (OH). Moore announced the news Wednesday morning on his twitter account.
Moore will join a class of 2021 that includes guards Brody Peebles and Joseph Venzant. Moore helped lead Worthington Christian to the Division III state championship game in Ohio. He scored a game-high 28 points in the title game, but his team would fall to Lutheran East, 61-56, as they finished the season at 27-2. In the state semifinal against Cincinnati Taft, Moore hit a buzzer-beating jump shot to send Worthington Christian to the state championship game for the first time since 2008.
Moore led the Warriors in scoring this season with 17.8 points per game to go with 5.1 assists and 4.3 rebounds. He was a three-year varsity starter, was named the Mid-State League Ohio division player of the year as a freshman and was the District 10 player of the year this season.
Moore is a three-star rated prospect according to 247Sports and he committed to Liberty last summer. Earlier this season he surpassed the 1,000 point mark for his high school career. He averaged 15.3 points per game as a sophomore a year ago and was named first team all-state while helping lead the Warriors to reach the district finals.
With Moore joining the Flames next season and the transfers of scholarship players Marten Maide and Josh Price, Liberty currently has one scholarship remaining for next season.
