MAINE - Ahead of his senior season, Newport native Ace Flagg has transferred schools- heading to Greensboro Day prep school in North Carolina.

Flagg won a state championship with Nokomis High School as a freshman, before he and his brother, Cooper, moved to Florida to play with Montverde Academy, one of the nation's top schools. Ace will now be in North Carolina as Cooper begins his freshman season at Duke University.

Greensboro Day's basketball team has won on the national stage before, most recently upsetting No. 2 IMG Academy in the 2017 national tournament.

Flagg has been a standout on Brian Scalabrine's AAU team this summer, 'Team White Mamba.'
