<p>This conference saw an increase in talent last season and many of the kids have returned for this upcoming season. While the conference is lacking in the big man department, there are a lot of guards and sharpshooters that have potential to be great small college players. It will be great to watch some more of this conferences games this season.</p>

<p>Last seasons Maxpreps West Virginia basketball player of the year returns for one last season with the Dots and looks to propel the team to championship status. Isaac is a great shooter, distributer, and ball handler. He is currently committed to Virginia and sits atop our West Virginia class of 2022 players rankings list. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="977586" first="Kolton" last="Painter"] (2022) | 6-1 PG | Nitro</p>
<p>One of the best scorers in the entire conference averaging over 15 PPG last season and led Nitro to a solid record of 16-4. Kolton has a lot of room to improve his shooting percentages as he shot less than 25% from three last year and only 32% from the field. If he can improve his efficiency he could average nearly 20 PPG this season. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="977610" first="Trevor" last="Lowe"] (2022) | 6-2 SG | Nitro</p>
<p>Trevor is a natural athlete playing multiple sports and boasts solid size and strength for his height. He also plays football and could garner similar interest from football programs. Look for him to improve is ball handling and help defense this season. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="977608" first="Jackson" last="Toney"] (2022) | 6-2 G | Poca</p>
<p>Forming a solid backcourt duo with [player_tooltip player_id="977574" first="Isaac" last="McKneely"], Jackson has high energy on defense and fast breaks while also improving his shooting last year. Hopefully we will continue to see improvements in his offensive game this year as he will have many opportunities with Isaac drawing a lot of opposing teams attention. </p>
