Dhilan Lowman, a 6‑foot‑5 guard whose name has become synonymous with elite shooting in New England, is set to begin a new chapter at the Hotchkiss School.
The Connecticut native earned a reputation at Staples High School, where he helped the Wreckers capture an FCIAC championship and attracted attention for his lethal perimeter game.
Lowman’s decision to transfer was driven by a desire to test himself against the nation’s most competitive prep circuit, the NEPSAC, and to join a program that has recently cemented its status as a defending Class A champion.
A Sharpshooter's Philosophy
Working closely with shooting instructor Mike Evans, Lowman has refined a regimen that prioritizes comfort and feel over mechanical perfection, a philosophy that has resonated with teammates and coaches alike.
The guard often cites Stephen Curry as a personal idol, crediting the NBA star’s unorthodox release and relentless work ethic as formative influences on his own approach to the game.
A New Landscape
At Hotchkiss, Lowman will join a roster that boasts a deep, talent‑laden incoming class, a factor that excited him during the recruitment process.
The school’s recent NEPSAC Class A title and its reputation for blending academic rigor with athletic excellence made the decision feel like a natural fit.
Looking Forward
Looking ahead, Lowman hopes to contribute immediately, bringing his shooting prowess and versatile skill set to a team that expects to contend for another championship.
He also expressed gratitude toward his parents, who have supported his early‑morning practice sessions, and toward Lincoln Razi, whose reporting first highlighted his journey.
