Sports Illustrated Cover Features Hamilton Player

The newest cover of Sports Illustrated features Hamilton native Michael Carter-Williams as he heads into March Madness with the Syracuse University men's basketball team.

Carter-Williams told The Post-Standard of Syracuse that being on the magazine's cover is an "unforgettable experience."

There were four different covers used for the sports weekly across the nation in the week headed into the NCAA tournament. Carter-Williams is on the cover used in the northeast.

"It was a fun experience that I'll never forget," he told the Post-Standard.

Carter-Williams is a sophomore point guard for the team, which played its first tournament game late on Thursday night in San Diego. He played basketball his freshman year at Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School before transferring to St. Andrew's in Rhode Island.
