#166 Amauri Young (Loretto)
Young provided the winning Loretto program poise and handles for the last three years. Young was a 2018 State Champion. Loretto was back in the State Tournament again this year before the season’s cancellation. Amauri’s strengths are point guard skills, poise, patience, willingness to be coached. Young will be a college player for sure and the only reason he suffers a lag in reputation is simply geographics and the fact that he dominated Class A. “Amauri Young is a 5-foot-11 point guard for us at Loretto High School,” shared LHS Head Coach Greg Tipps. “Amauri is an under the radar recruit. He has a 3.3 GPA, a 19 on ACT. He is a great kid.”
Finally starting to get some attention for ‘20 PG Amauri Young. If anyone wants film on extremely explosive /ultra competitive PG That can score at 3 levels,over 100 wins-1,000 pts -🏆-please let me know. @PrepHoops @tnhoopsrecruits @tnhoopsreport @Tnprephoops @CoachDavidSisk pic.twitter.com/OjD9c8JQU9

#167 Grant Johnson Grant Johnson 5'10" | PG Baylor School | 2020 State TN (Baylor School)
#168 Jacob Matherne Jacob Matherne 6'6" | PF Science Hill | 2020 State TN (Science Hill)
Hits the outside shot if given time. Inside-out threat. More forward than guard. Wing? Maybe offensively. Defends the blocks better than he moves his feet 20′ from tin.
#169 Micah Austin Micah Austin 6'2" | SG McKenzie | 2020 State TN (McKenzie)
Soft touch from range. Micah is a solid outside shooter and capable secondary ball handler at the college level. Teamed with some wonderful seniors at McKenzie, including Lucas King Lucas King 6'1" | PG McKenzie | 2020 State TN (Bethel signee), Nate Whitsell Nate Whitsell 6'5" | PF McKenzie | 2020 State TN , and Lazerick Hill.
#170 DeAndre Boyland DeAndre Boyland 6'5" | CG Manassas | 2020 State TN (Manassas)
Springy forward. Falls in the rankings because he is more wing prospect than forward, but played 4/5 in high school. Athletic as anybody in the top 50.
