<p> SPRINGFIELD, Ma. – Not surprisingly, <strong>Scottie Lewis</strong> of The Ranney School (Tinton Falls, NJ) was the top vote-getter among the media polled to select the Eastbay All-Showcase Team for the players among the 50 teams that participated in the Spalding HoopHall Classic, presented by Eastbay.</p>
<p> The announcement was made Tuesday, following the six games that concluded action in the five-day event Sunday in Blake Arena at Springfield College.</p>
<p> Lewis scored 26 points with eight rebounds, four assists and six steals while making a strong case for being the best all-around player in the Class of 2019 during his team’s 73-63 victory over Federal Way, the top team in Washington.</p>
<p> The other four players selected (in order of votes received) were junior <strong>Brandon Boston</strong> (Norcross, GA), junior <strong>Sharife Cooper</strong> (Powder Springs, GA, McEachern), senior <strong>Jeremiah Robinson-Earl</strong> (Bradenton, FL, IMG Academy) and senior <strong>Keion Brooks</strong> (La Porte, IN, La Lumiere).</p>
<p> Lewis, Boston (PICTURED) and Cooper were on my ballot but were joined by juniors <strong>Jaden Springer </strong>(IMG Academy) and <strong>Cade Cunningham</strong> (Montverde, Fl, Academy) instead of Robinson-Earl and Brooks.</p>
<p> Springer and Cunningham, at about 6-4 and 6-7, respectively, join Boston as three of the best half-dozen or so point guard prospects in the Class of 2020.</p>
