(2022) – South Pointe HS – Prep Hoops Preseason Region Player of the Year (pictured on front)
Peterson is headed off to Syracuse next season to play football for the Orange. Quan has been a solid guard over the years for the Stallions with his play. Quan plays the game in the same mode at all times under-control. Peterson never looks to get too fancy or cute while on the floor. Quan makes winning plays to help your team win games and it showed last February with a Class 4A State Championship.

Hicklin can be a bit of a mismatch on the floor with his frame at times. JJ plays Defensive End in the fall for the rich tradition Stallions football program. Hicklin has great set of hands and does a good job of carving out space or popping out for a short jumper.

Jamar is not overly polished on the offensive of the floor but sure does a deliver a ton of effort while on the floor. Williams plays best down in the post and close to the cup. Jamar is not flashy with his play but really brings a blue-collar attitude to the floor.

Hendrick a slender-sleek forward has the ability to knockdown shots on the perimeter. Carter has a nice stroke when he at times to set his feet. Hendrick does a good job of extending the defense with his deep range shooting ability.

Grayson will look to lead a young group of Bruins this season with some key players moving on. Kirk has a knack to score the ball and he did just that this past grassroots season with the York County Legends.

Hager showed some good flashes at times and a great deal of confidence last summer when Prep Hoops saw him play. Hager looks to be part of the future plans for the Copperheads moving forward into the future.
