Corner Canyon vs. Perry (AZ)
This is going to be a really good test for CCHS as they do have a lot of pieces in place that can get them ready for a good run next season. Max Toombs Max Toombs 6'3" | CG Corner Canyon | 2023 State UT is a tough guard that can score from all over the floor. He is a leader out there and you pair him up with 6’7 W Brody Kozlowski Brody Kozlowski 6'8" | SF Corner Canyon | 2024 State #103 Nation UT and you really open up the floor with his shooting and sheer size to shoot over players. Brody has also improved his overall game, especially in the post. Jaxonn Roberts Jaxonn Roberts 5'11" | PG Corner Canyon | 2023 UT could be a big difference maker as he has some size at the PG position and some skill.
Davis vs. Liberty (AZ)
Davis is a whole new team with some new players looking to make their name and get Davis back to a power sooner than later. This is a great opportunity for them to really get some of these players experience. 2025 6’2 G Coleman Atwater Coleman Atwater 6'3" | PG Davis | 2025 State UT is a good young prospect in the making up north at Davis. Look for Coleman to try and take on some of the new added load of responsibilities on the offensive end of the floor and the defensive end as well.
Layton Christian vs. Apollo (AZ)
LCA should compete against anyone that comes their way they have some really good players and they go deep. Youngster Tyrin Jones at 6’5 and a Class of 2025 is a nice player to really watch as he has a solid game. Soulemayne Barro is going to attract some coaches because he has the size and he also can play multiple positions. LCA also goes deep
Lone Peak vs. Estrella Foothills (AZ)
Lone Peak had a good showing this past weekend and they continue to put in work and the player that has been really impressive on their roster is Ike Staley Ike Staley 6'6" | SG Lone Peak | 2025 State UT . This kid is a big time athlete as he plays QB on the football team and is about 6’6 and he has some muscle on him. He plays with physicality and he is trying to dunk on you as well. Lone Peak has some more young talent looking to make a splash.
Olympus vs. Bishop Montgomery (CA)
This is a big time matchup for Olympus as Bishop Montgomery has a rich history of D1 players and pro players that have come through their basketball program. With that said it is going to be tough to stop sharp shooting guard Dutch Dowdell Dutch Dowdell 6'6" | SG Olympus | 2024 State #310 Nation UT as he can really shoot the ball with the best of them. Then you have Jordan Barnes Jordan Barnes 6'4" | PG Olympus | 2024 State UT who is under-recruited but he is one of the toughest PG’s out there and he can score too. Both of these players will be surrounded with shooting and high IQ players.
