Coach Isaiah Payne, a current senior at The Academy of Classical Christian Studies, is one of the newest coaches to join the Summit Basketball Academy staff.

Coach Isaiah recently completed a decorated four-year high school career for the Griffins. As a senior, he was averaging 10.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 2.0 steals, and 0.7 blocks per game when he suffered an unfortunate season-ending knee injury two games before the playoffs.

Coach Isaiah will be attending college at The University of Arkansas in the fall of 2026, but he’s excited to pour into the lives of the Summit players this spring and summer!
