Players to Watch:
Julius Reynolds is the ultimate defensive minded point guard who can run a team. 4 year varsity player who has played against the best in the state. High academic player. Academic schools should be all over him.
Dara Olonade-has had a tremendous Spring and is one of the best athletes in the state. Has been putting in a great deal of work and his skill set is all falling into place.
Jalen DeLoach – long, athletic 3/4 man who can shoot outside and has a high motor. Matchup problem at the next level.
Cam Blount-very efficient scorer. Plays both ends of the floor and is extremely strong and explosive. Will have a breakout year.
Malique Ewin- the sky is the limit for him. Can do just about everything (post, shoot, handle the ball). Improving motor and will be a prospect to follow for DI schools.
Jermahri Hill- will Be on everyone’s radar after this summer. Very athletic two sport athlete with next level athleticism now! With continued skill development could be a high major prospect.
Matt Jones-ultimate glue guy and coaches dream. Rim protector and high motor. Talks more than anyone in practice and has a joy in playing hard. Strong mid-major player.
Zhare Floyd-strong guard who continues to work and will be able to be a multi positional guard at the next level.
Duke Clayton- huge upside for an undersized 4 man. As his athleticism catches up to his large frame he will be a mid major steal.
JaRon Ford- super quick pg who will dominate in the full court defensively. Lock down defensive player who also is a standout on the football field.
