SCISA Live 2022 – UNDERCLASSMEN

<p>Prep Hoops made the trip down from Rock Hill to Columbia to take in the final day of action at the SCISA Live 2022. The event featuring SCISA teams from the Palmetto State was being held at Cardinal Newman. Let’s dive into the action with some UNDERCLASSMEN from the event today.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1160755" first="Russ" last="White"] - Cardinal Newman (pictured on front)</strong></p> <p>Russ does a tremendous job of rebounding the basketball from his position on the floor. He really can absorb contact on the way to the cup while finishing with either hand. He really enjoys getting the ball downhill at times and scoring at the rim. Russ will keep the defense honest with his perimeter shooting. White takes NO PLAYS OFF while on the floor. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/B486129B-EB38-4BD2-8FE0-CAE327559527.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1489217" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/B486129B-EB38-4BD2-8FE0-CAE327559527-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1160754" first="Josiah" last="Peeples"] - Cardinal Newman </strong></p> <p>The left-handed Peeples was able to create his own shot and for others with his timely passing skills. Josiah found the open man on several occasions today which led to easy Cardinal baskets. He was able to finish on contact while using to his body to fight off defenders. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/E06E823C-DA1E-4A17-BED9-38ACCC11337B-crop-3354x2202-1655700337.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1489218" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/E06E823C-DA1E-4A17-BED9-38ACCC11337B-crop-3354x2202-1655700337-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1183946" first="Jack" last="Green"] - Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach </strong></p> <p>Green plays the game with a lot of swagger that is for sure. Jack really came out on fire in the opener vs Hammond. Green a left-handed guard backdown from no challenge on the floor and really has no problem jumping on the floor for a loose ball at anytime. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/B2DE4A82-3784-4F5C-8E8C-45A83ED0B876.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1489213" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/B2DE4A82-3784-4F5C-8E8C-45A83ED0B876-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1340385" first="Christian" last="Martin"] - Cardinal Newman </strong></p> <p>Martin is the son of current UMASS men’s basketball coach Frank Martin. Christian has started to fill out some in the past year and shows to have a nice game from the perimeter. He was able to connect on some three pointers today when he wasn’t making crisp passes to teammates. The underclassmen trio of Martin, Peeples and White will take this Cardinals team far next season into the SCISA playoffs. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/370203D8-D0F2-4B23-9F16-8CCB4820FC27.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1489215" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/370203D8-D0F2-4B23-9F16-8CCB4820FC27-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1489202" first="Ryheim" last="Manning"] - Dillon Christian </strong></p> <p>Manning came to play today in the opener vs Northwood Academy. Ryheim showed good versatility to play inside-out on the floor. Manning felt very comfortable handling the rock and times and knocking down perimeter jumpers. He’s for sure a new name to monitor in the Pee Dee this coming season for Warriors Head Coach Bo Stone. </p>
