Judy Dixon Tournament: Top Underclassmen

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I attended the annual <strong>Judy Dixon Tournament</strong> over the holiday season at Greenway HS. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Here were some of the top underclassmen I noticed: </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="831118" first="Emery" last="Young"] <strong>Centennial</strong></p> <p>An all around guard was solid as usual for Centennial. You see the improvement in his perimeter game and he was a terror rebounding from the guard spot.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1128252" first="Gage" last="Galbreath"] <strong>Centennial </strong></p> <p>A scrappy young post player was all over the place. He goes and gets the ball like it belongs to him. He also showed progression in his offensive game.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="814508" first="Andrew" last="Camacho"] <strong>Peoria</strong></p> <p>A lead guard offensively was hard to stop for opponents in the tournament. He hit 3’s as far as the volleyball line in some games. He used his body well to create contact and plays with supreme confidence. </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1334763" first="Calvin" last="Windley"] <strong>Peoria</strong></p> <p>The lefty averaged over 20 ppg for the tournament by attacking the paint whenever possible. Windley showed good energy and a decent outside shot.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1334752" first="Caden" last="Bass"] <strong>Peoria</strong></p> <p>The freshman wing showed glimpses of his potential. Caden handled the ball well and hit some 3’s in the games that I saw. As he gets stronger he will be even more dangerous.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1152187" first="Luke" last="Shaw"] <strong>Valley Christian (Pictured left)</strong></p> <p>The young shooter caught fire in one of the games that I saw by hitting four 3’s. He showed a confident stroke and maturity by letting his shots come to him. One of the top 2024’s in the state.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1194266" first="Austin" last="Wallace"] <strong>Valley Christian (Pictured middle)</strong></p> <p>A soph wing had a nose for the ball and showed touch around the rim. Another young prospect to keep an eye on for VC moving forward.</p> <p><strong>Carson Grier SG 6’3 2025 Valley Christian (Pictured right)</strong></p> <p>The baby faced guard logged heavy minutes for Valley in the tournament. He showed a mature understanding of the game. He will play more of an important role as the season winds down.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1336442" first="Zane" last="Gaul"] <strong>Prescott </strong></p> <p>A long player who can step out and hit an occasional 3, as he did in one of the games I saw. With his length he is a rim protector and rebounder deluxe. Prescott will rely heavily on the freshman this season and the next three years. </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1336443" first="Uriah" last="Tenette"] <strong>Prescott</strong></p> <p>The freshman point guard showed a nice handle and ability to score. He will be one to track in the 2025 class. </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="1239569" first="Jaylen" last="Lee"] <strong>Valley Christian </strong></p> <p>Lee quietly led the way for the Trojans in the tournament. The consummate team player just looks to make the right basketball play. </p> <p><strong>Marshall Kerley SF 6’4 2023 Thunderbird</strong></p> <p>The junior wing can get on hot streaks quick. He has nice form on his 3 ball and plays hard each game. </p> <p><strong>Quadir Robinson-White PG 5’9 2023 Greenway</strong></p> <p>A quick guard was a pest on defense for Greenway. In one game he had close to 20 points and collected multiple steals. </p> <p><strong>Cole Vernon PF/C 6’6 2023 Rincon</strong></p> <p>The big fella was a load for opposing teams in the post. In the games I saw he showed good hands and was a willing passer.</p> <p><strong>Dieumerci Byiringiro CG 5’10 2023 Rincon</strong></p> <p>A jitterbug guard scored in double figures every game during the tournament and plays with good pace. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
