<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1172765" first="Julen" last="Iturbe"] - Riverside HS </strong></p>
<p>Iturbe picked up an offer from North Carolina A&T this past weekend. Julen has a great skill level and also took 5 charges in one game to my calculations. Iturbe brought the ball up the floor today, rebounded it on both ends through contact, finished everything in sight and at times just made WINNING PLAYS.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="992183" first="Ellis" last="Graham"] - Gray Collegiate </strong></p>
<p>Ellis is a great addition to the War Eagles front court with his ability to be a rim protector. Graham is still a RAW talent who continues to keep getting better and better every day. Ellis is more polished on the defensive end of the floor right now with his ability to alter and challenge shots. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1168160" first="Caden" last="Giles"] - Nation Ford HS </strong></p>
<p>Giles plays Quarterback on the football team for the Falcons. Caden has really sprouted up in the past year. Giles has good mobility and footwork around the paint. Can the Falcons make some noise this season in the Upstate? </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1221523" first="Ghaleb" last="Wilson"] - Andrew Jackson HS (Kershaw) </strong></p>
<p>TOUGH, TOUGH, TOUGH is one word to describe this young man. Ghaleb spent plenty of time on the deck driving the ball to the cup, picking up a loose ball, taking a charge or running into the bleachers to save a ball from going out of bounce. Enough said here TOUGH young man and better kid. </p>

<p><strong>Jaylen Tillman - Richland Northeast HS </strong></p>
