<p>Harrell burst onto the scene as a sophomore as a complete scorer. He finished with 502 points on the season with 110 of them coming from the free throw line.

<p>Zalescik was a force on the offensive end from the first game of the season. He averaged 18 points as a junior and that number could rise in his final season. He is a three-point threat and he uses that to get past defenders on the perimeter as well if they get too close.</p>
