(Full Disclosure: it’s my event. No, seriously, it is)
It was great to be able to host the daylong event, and see so many of the region’s top players competing.
In our final series of dispatches, we look at the youngest players on hand, from the classes of 2025 and 2026, and discuss some of the standouts we saw. That list includes Gavin Guinn, Kevon Fitzpatrick and Jayden Wade, who were featured in earlier stories.
3P Creme of the County: 2025 and 2026 standouts, Part 1:
Jake Hall, 6-2 2025 G, Carlsbad
Hall came into the game with a lot of buzz after a strong summer travel circuit. Here, he showed the subtleties in his game, including solid passing, improving on-ball defense and the ability to create for others.
Alek Sanchez, 6-1 2025 G, Montgomery
A sinewy lefty guard with excellent feel and instincts, Sanchez’s ball skills allow him to overcome his average athleticism. One of the best passers on hand all day.
JJ Sanchez, 6-3 2025 F, Montgomery
Sanchez’s twin brother is a big-bodied mismatch who possesses excellent footwork (really crafty drop-step move in the paint), and passing ability out of the post. Like his brother, his IQ allows him to pick apart defenses.
CJ Coleman, 6-3 2025 F, San Marcos
One of the surprises of the event, Coleman has a great basketball frame (solid length), and moves well for a big man. He is able to advance the ball in transition, attack off the wing in the halfcourt and finish through contact.
Treyshawn Degrate, 5-9 2025 PG, San Diego
Degrate’s biggest attribute is his toughness. He doesn’t back down from a challenge, and wants to take the big shot or have the ball in his hands in key moments. The athletic, quick point guard is a capable facilitator, and does most of his damage when he gets two feet in the paint as a scorer and a distributor.
