Carmel)</strong></p> <p>Long and lanky shooting guard that flashes a perimeter jump shot stretching out to three.  Slick with the ball hitting the hole and has potential defensively.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="920998" first="Demarco" last="Clayton"] (Bloomington)</strong></p> <p>Clayton is a super athletic combo guard from Bloomington that shows it off in the open floor flying high for dunks.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="921004" first="Terrance" last="Moncrief"] (Joliet West)</strong></p> <p>Moncrief is a crafty lead guard that can set others up and plays with nice pace.  Lefty is a sound distributor, can hit a mid-range jumper, and is a good leader.  Look for him to have a bigger role for Joliet West next season.</p>
