UIndy Elite Camp Session 1 Top Performers

<p>This morning I made the trip over to the southside of Indianapolis for the annual UIndy Elite Camp. This even allows features some of the best talent in the area and brings out a lot of other small college programs to evaluate at the camp. Prep Hoops Indiana had boots on the ground for Session I. Here is part one of the events top performers.</p> <p>Marcus Ankney (Center Grove H.S. 2023)</p> <p>This 6’3" guard may have generated the most buzz of anyone at the elite camp this morning. Ankney is a pure scorer that is efficient from all three levels. He shot the ball very well from beyond the arc and showed the ability to create his shot off of the dribble as well. Definitely a scholarship player that will see his recruitment really get going through his junior season.</p> <p>Shaun Arnold (Ben Davis H.S. 2023)</p> <p>Arnold was impressive all morning long with his physicality and offensive versatility. A 6’5" forward, Arnold is skilled enough to play out on the wing where he can attack closeouts, but also has the size and strength to finish inside with his back to the basket. He did both at UIndy today. Part of a very talented Ben Davis 2023 class.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="870254" first="Dirin" last="Birhiray"] (Brebeuf Jesuit H.S. 2022)</p> <p>A 6’5" physical driver, Birhiray was super active all over the floor in session one. He has all the physical tools you would want with some explosiveness on his way to the rim. Bihiray is at his best attacking closeouts and slashing to the basket. Good rebounder on both ends of the floor as well. Flying a little under-the-radar as a very good small college prospect.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="926920" first="Tucker" last="Blanford"] (Bullitt East H.S. KY 2022)</p> <p>Blanford averaged a double-double during his junior season and it was easy to see why today. He is a 6’6" 195 pound skilled forward with impressive mobility. He can get up and finish above the rim when he drives it from the wings or along the baseline but also has the skill to score from the perimeter. Blanford was one of the best non-Indiana natives at the event.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1157051" first="Dominic" last="Commisso"] (Hononegah H.S. IL 2022)</p> <p>Long, bouncy 6’8" forward. Commisso is very skilled from the perimeter as a pick-and-pop 4-man. Definitely at his best on the perimeter and shooting it from beyond the arc. When he is inside, Commisso is an above-the-rim finisher with impressive vertical athleticism. As he develops physically and gets stronger his recruitment could really blow up.</p> <p>Carson Sanders (Hanover H.S. MI 2022)</p> <p>Sanders is a do-it-all versatile wing with a ton of talent. He put on a show with some big dunks Saturday morning. Super athletic, strong, and all the skill you would want in a 6’5" wing. Sanders is an excellent shooter along with all of the physical tools that he possesses. Division II’s should be on this guy hard.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
