JUSTIN ARCHER. 6”6. TRINITY PAULING SCHOOL. (2020)
A smooth lefty who can play 4 positions. Great skill set. A double machine this year (20&10). Was on the all conference team in the Nepsac prep league. Has a 6”11 wing span which makes him a force on the defensive end as a rim protector. He can get off his own shot and is also very good off the catch. Multiple D1 interest from mid majors . Coach feels he has a Marvin Bagley type game.
NYRIE HICKS. 6”2. OUR SAVIOR LUTHERAN PREP. (2020)
Dynamic combo guard. Very good on the ball defender. Can knock down shots consistently. Very quick downhill player. Hard worker with excellent work ethic and attitude. Lot of interest in this exciting player.
TADHG CROWLEY 6”10. TRINITY PAULING SCHOOL (2020)
A true stretch 4-5. Moves very well for his 6”10 230 lb frame. He can play with his back to the basket but can also face up. A rim protector. Has a combination of size, skill and strength. Manhattan and Utah State as well as others have shown interest.
EVERTON BROWNE. 6”0. ST BENEDICT (NJ). (2022)
His H S team ranked 19th in the country this past season. Everton was a big part of that. Lights out 3 point shooter shooter. Lock down defender. Is a disruptive force on the defensive end. High basketball IQ with good vision and awareness. Impressive in the classroom with a 3.7 GPA and a 1200 SAT. Bryant, Oregon St.,Arkansas, Princeton, Lafayette, Brown and Lehigh have either shown real interest or have offered. Teams need to act early on this player or it might be to late.
IKE SHEPPARD 6”7 OUR SAVIOR LUTHERAN PREP (2020)
Very versatile player. Tremendous in the open floor. Super athletic. He averaged 18&11 but also added 2 blocks and 3 assists a game. A true inside out player. Can step out and hit the three. Can make plays in space. Tremendous upside with untapped potential.
JAI SMITH 6”9 ST. THOMAS MOORE (CT) (2021)
A skilled big man. On the defensive end he blocks shots and clears the glass. He can score around the rim. Runs the floor well. Very good passer out of post. A lot of high major interest.
MARQUIS GILL 6”0 MIDDLETOWN H S (2020)
A true point guard who sees the floor well. Has a deadly pull up game. But can also get to the rim and drill the three. Gets the ball to teammates in the right spot. A still available D1 talent
D’ANDRE BARRETT 6”6 LAMAR CC (CO) JUCO
D’andre has gotten his release from Lamar . He is now looking for a new program to finish out his career. Can make plays. He creates shots for himself or his teammates. Has a really good handle . Can rebound and in traffic. Any Juco with openings should take a look.
SURAKATA JAWARA 6”6 SEWARD CC (KS)
Entering his 2nd year at Seward CC. This lefty can play 4 positions. Really good in transition. Excellent rebounder who can lead the break off the glass. Can play as a big guard due to his ball handling. His stock is rising so D1 should check in now.
