Matt Kirby gives Mount Olive a steady, high-upside two-way guard with real shot-making pop
In the 2025-26 season, Matt Kirby emerged as a reliable scoring guard for Mount Olive, averaging 13.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists while shooting 30.8% from the field, and he flashed a much stronger all-around profile across the season with 29.2 minutes, 4.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 0.6 steals, and 87.3% free-throw shooting. He’s the kind of fit-coach guys love: competitive, poised, and able to swing games with both playmaking and pressure-free-throw accuracy, highlighted by multiple efficient double-digit outings and a 27-point career night. If you want a guard who can handle the ball, create for others, and stay calm late, Kirby’s worth a hard look.
