<p><strong>The Ohio Class of 2022 has some excellent players who are under the radar. I like putting the spotlight on these players. Here is my first installment:</strong></p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="967179" first="Blake" last="Guffey"]</strong> 2022 SG Trimble</p>
<p>Guffey is nice player who always plays under control. Offensively he is crafty and can score in a variety of ways. I feel he needs to get stronger and when he does his game will get even better. He has deceptive speed. He plays hard all the time. He is an excellent shooter.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="967178" first="Zack" last="Oddo"]</strong> 2022 SF Green</p>
<p>The more Oddo plays the better he gets. When his opportunity came he made the best of it. He plays big and he isn’t afraid of contact. He scores well in the paint and he is an excellent rebounder. Definitely a player to watch</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="921798" first="Matt" last="Bertke"]</strong> 2022 PF/C St. Henry</p>
<p>Bertke is a fundamentally sound big man. When he makes a commitment to conditioning and developing lateral quickness he is going to take off. This will also help him defensively. He has a good touch around the basket, he can flash to the foul line and knock down the jumper or hit the cutter. He also showed he can step out and hit the open three.</p>
<p><strong>Landon Newland</strong> 2022 SG Ridgemont</p>
<p>First thing I have to say about Newland is, he is a sharpshooter. He also has a nice crossover that will freeze the defender then he blows by for a layup. He can finish with both hands. He has excellent handles. Despite being a scorer he looks to involve his teammates. Definitely a player to watch.</p>
<p><strong>Mason Stuck</strong> 2022 PF Ridgemont</p>
<p>Ridge is a good player who is not going to be outwork. He is a very strong player and doesn’t mind doing the dirty work. He is very good around the rim with a nice turnaround jumper and jump hook but he also shoots 41% from the three point line. His hands is active defensively and he keeps is hands up which leads to deflections and blocks.</p>
