Reggie Mack Reggie Mack 6'0" | CG Ridge View | 2025 State SC – Ridge View HS – Upward Stars Columbia 15U (pictured on front)
Mack was able to get his shot very easily today. Reggie attacked the gaps and got the ball into the paint when he wasn’t knocking down perimeter jumpers. He was great in the passing lanes picking up several deflections that led to easy buckets going the other way for him and his teammates. Mack should pick up some good minutes this season for the Blazers.
Riley Durant Riley Durant 6'4" | SF Crestwood | 2025 State SC – Crestwood HS (Dalzell) – Upward Stars Columbia 15U
Durant was a nice surprise with his play around the cup. Riley was able to score some around the basket and showed great activity towards the ball. Durant will be a nice addition to the Knights roster and Head Coach Aric Samuel’s program moving forward.
Trey Sutton Trey Sutton 6'7" | PF Calhoun Falls Charter | 2025 State SC – Calhoun Falls Charter – Next Level Elite 2025
Sutton likes to work from block to block at times. Trey plays off the grid in the northwestern part of the Palmetto State at a small Class 1A program. Sutton feels comfortable facing-up to the basket and actually shows a good skill set from the perimeter. He will keep getting better down the road with more playing time.
Javion Crawford Javion Crawford 6'8" | PF Conway | 2025 State SC – Conway HS – Team USC Premier 2025
Crawford was a nice addition to the red, white and block this weekend. Javion usually runs with the Ascend Ballers on the Grassroots Circuit. He did an excellent job of finishing everything around the cup and keeping the ball up high. Javion continues to make strong progress with his play and will only keep getting better down the road.
LJ Britt LJ Britt 6'3" | CG Gray Collegiate | 2025 State SC – Gray Collegiate – Team USC Premier 2025
LJ saw good minutes last season for the War Eagles in a run for the Class 2A State Championship once again for Head Coach Dion Bethea. Britt has a nice mid-range game out to the three-point line. LJ uses his body to fight off defenders on the way to the rack. He plays the game very mature for his age already.
Cedric Schofield Cedric Schofield 6'7" | PF Keenan | 2025 State SC – Elite Game
Schofield is a bit of a mystery on the hardwood scene. Cedric attended Butler HS in Augusta, GA last season. Schofield claims everything on the glass and around the paint. He plays the game extremely ACTIVE on both ends of the floor and does all of his work 2 feet in from the cup. Where will he be attending school this fall?
Abe Davinroy Abe Davinroy 6'1" | SG Oceanside Collegiate | 2026 State SC (2026) – Oceanside Collegiate (Mount Pleasant) – Upward Stars Columbia 2026
Davinroy came out on fire knocking down shots from the corners for the red, white and blue. Abe has a sweet stoke and nice release. He’s the younger brother of Calvin Davinroy Calvin Davinroy 6'3" | SF Oceanside Collegiate | 2023 State SC who will attend Oceanside Collegiate this year after playing at Wando HS.
Jake Thomas Jake Thomas 6'6" | PF Oceanside Collegiate | 2026 State SC (2026) – Oceanside Collegiate (Mount Pleasant) – Upward Stars Columbia 2026
Thomas is a post who has really sprouted up a handful of inches over the past year. Jake can play with his back to the basket. He does a good job of switching hands around the cup. Thomas has a nice touch on the foul line while doing a good job of rebounding the ball outside of his area.
Braysen Stockman Braysen Stockman 6'0" | PG Ben Lippen | 2026 State SC (2026) – Ben Lippen (Columbia) – Upward Stars Columbia 2026
Stockman is the son of Tony Stockman at Columbia International University. Braysen was able to penetrate-kick into the lanes when he wasn’t diving on the floor for loose balls. Stockman has a nice crossover move to get by defenders and a quick shot release. Braysen is a crafty ball-handler with a good basketball feel.
