His performances helped Lone Peak High School earn a national ranking of 15th according to Maxpreps.com. Haws also participated in AAU circuits, playing for Salt Lake Metro and Lone Peak AAU teams. In the 2008 Houston Kingwood Classic, he scored 35 points against Compton Magic, a strong team from California.

    With his impressive high school career, Haws attracted the attention of several college basketball programs. Wake Forest, BYU, Utah, Stanford, Cal, Harvard, Penn, Marquette, UCLA, Pepperdine, USC, and Davidson were among the schools that recruited him. Ultimately, Haws decided to play collegiately at Brigham Young University (BYU) and signed his letter of intent in November 2008.

    During his senior year at Lone Peak High School, Haws continued to excel, averaging 23.6 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game.
