My name is Malachi Hayes, a 6'0 point guard from Christian Heritage School in Trumbull, Connecticut. I primarily play point guard but can also contribute at shooting guard. I'm a versatile guard who can handle the ball with either hand, create off the dribble, and score from all three levels. I take pride in my court vision, making the right play for my teammates, and competing with energy on both ends of the floor.

Defensively, I use my length and effort to be a versatile on-ball defender and take pride in staying in front of the ball and helping my team with strong rotations. I am constantly working to improve my explosiveness, speed, and strength to elevate my game to the next level.

I compete at the varsity level for Christian Heritage School and play club basketball with DTX Basketball. Being a multi-sport athlete has helped shape my work ethic and endurance. I have also competed in varsity lacrosse and cross country, serving as cross country captain and finishing 5th at the 2025 HVAL Cross Country Championships.

In the classroom, I maintain a 3.5 GPA while challenging myself with AP Pre-Calculus and dual-enrollment Physics I through UConn. I am an Honor Roll student and participate in Jazz Band and chorus ensembles.

My goal is to play college basketball at a program where I can contribute as a reliable guard, strong teammate, and disciplined student-athlete while continuing to grow athletically and academically.

I am actively seeking college basketball opportunities. Coaches interested in learning more are welcome to reach out directly or through my family.
