Sebastian Harding: New York’s Best Rounded Guard Set to Make Waves at Fork Union

Sebastian Harding, New York’s best rounded guard out of NYC is making major moves in his basketball journey. Known for his impressive ball-handling and quick decision-making, Harding consistently found ways to break down defenses, getting into the lane at will and creating opportunities for himself and his teammates. Now, he’s preparing for the next chapter of his career: transferring to Fork Union Military Academy (VA) for his senior year.

Fork Union has a rich history of producing elite talent. Over the years, the prestigious academy has sent hundreds of athletes to Division I programs, with many advancing to successful careers in the NBA and NFL. Among its notable alumni is Kevin Plank, founder of Under Armour, who famously credited Fork Union for helping launch his brand. Early on, Plank sent his gear to Fork Union athletes, many of whom went on to professional stardom, helping Under Armour become the powerhouse it is today.

Harding’s move to Fork Union is a clear signal that he’s positioning himself among the next wave of top-tier prospects. Last season, he suited up for the renowned RENs United program, showcasing his skills against elite competition. This year, he’s playing for the Kips Bay Mustangs’ 17U team under the leadership of Kareem Reid — a basketball legend and Arkansas University Hall of Fame inductee. Reid’s mentorship is expected to sharpen Harding’s already polished game, with Reid also coaching at the upcoming Iverson Classic, one of the nation’s premier showcases.

Already this spring, Harding is cooking in the new AAU season, dominating at MadeHoops and showing why he’s one of the most dangerous junior in the country. His elite playmaking, scoring versatility, and leadership are standing out against some of the toughest competition in the nation.

With Fork Union’s tradition of excellence, Under Armour’s continued presence in elite sports — including their new high-fashion collaboration with Balenciaga — and Harding’s steady rise, all signs point toward a breakout season. Sebastian Harding is a name that college coaches and scouts won’t want to miss.
