Our first preview comes from Dayton Metro, a Prep Hoops CIrcuit member made up of seniors-to-be in the Dayton area. Multiple prospects have played varsity basketball for their schools and will attract attention from small schools once they begin playing in July.
Rhett Burtch– Greeneview- 6’2 guard capable of scoring from multiple levels. He will likely be Dayton Metro’s top scoring threat this AAU season. Creates offense with his swift ball-handling and stronger build.
Trent Koning Trent Koning 6'1" | PG Cedarville | 2021 OH – Cedarville- One of the better shooters in the OHC last year. Shown a capability to knock down shots in catch-and-shoot situations as well as off the dribble.
Dylan Hoosier– Xenia- High IQ point guard that showed he can lead a backcourt, being the starter since his sophomore year. Led scoring at Xenia but will need to show an improved ability to shoot from beyond the arc.
Shaeden Olden– Troy- Taller point guard that handles the basketball well against athletic defenses. Playmaker that creates offensive opportunities not just for himself, but teammates around him. Should help in the loaded backcourt.
Jaden Owens– Troy- High volume offensive scorer, but known more for the defensive side of the ball. Turnover creator with his athleticism.
Zack Gaither– Xenia- 6’5 Forward with varsity experience, big interior option that will show off his ability to score around the rim this Summer.
Johnny Deep– Carroll- Big man around the rim; rebounds the ball at a high level. WIll be one of the better interior players for this group in the Summer.
Other Players on Roster: Gavin Hellard (Fairmont), Landon McClaskey (Northmont), Cole English (Xenia)
