Comer's national TV appearance at The Burrow caps rough week
FAU recruit Brett Comer only scored six points and dished out five assists in his first game at his future home, but after the week he's had he'll take it.



Comer, a junior point guard at Winter Park High School who committed to FAU over the summer, lost his father Troy to lung cancer last week. The memory of his father was still in the front of him mind when Winter Park defeated Pine Crest on Friday in a game shown to the nation on ESPN2

"It's all for him - I'm doing this in memory of him," Comer said.

The video above is from last night. Here is an Orlando Sentinel story about Comer's strong performance the night his father died.

A card from the FAU basketball team signed by the players and coaches was among the condolences Comer's received over the last week.

Comer's tough statistical night on Friday can partly be attributed to having to guard Brandon Knight, who many regard as the best high school player in the nation. After picking up his fourth foul midway through the third quarter, Comer spent a good portion of the second half on the bench.

Playing in a Burrow packed with nearly as many people as there were for last Saturday's FAU-FIU game, Knight finished with 48 points.

"I thought I did all right," Comer said. "I got in foul trouble early trying to guard Brandon. When he's shooting like that you just try to hold him below 50."

Comer's teammate Austin Rivers, son of former NBA player Doc Rivers and current Celtics coach, scored 41 points to pace Winter Park. Rivers has verbally committed to Florida.
