Ryan Prior | 6’3” | G | Red Bank Catholic 2025
Prior made a name for himself as a freshman playing on a stacked RBC team. He’s cool, calm and collected at both ends of the floor, is a sharpshooter and can use his strong frame to finish through contact. He’s going to have a big role to play the next few years for the Caseys, especially after the outbound transfers. He had 12 vs Camden Catholic and 10 vs Rutgers Prep in the state tournament. He’s a major baseball prospect but expect him to light it up on the hardwood as well.
Jack O’Leary Jack O’Leary 6'1" | CG Raritan | 2023 State NJ | 6’1” | G | Raritan 2023
O’Leary had a big junior year for the Rockets and is poised for a better senior year. He’s got a quick first step to the basket and drives through defenders to finish at the rim. He can put the ball on the floor and is a tough defender. His best performances saw him score 29 against Steinert, 22 against Holmdel team and dropped 24 on South River in states. He also had good outings vs Roselle and Ranney(14pts each night). O’Leary’s play with Raritan and the Force has drawn eyes of college coaches throughout the Northeast.
Tyler Burnham | 6’5”| F | Red Bank Catholic 2024
An mountain of a man on the low block who will have to now lead the Caseys in the frontcourt. Burnham uses his strong frame and size to push around players as he battles under the basket for positioning. He had two double doubles and another solid game vs Holmdel as a sophomore. He’ll be able to expand his statistics as a junior with RBC graduating several key players and others transferring out.
Emanuel Domingo Emanuel Domingo 6'6" | PF St. John Vianney | 2024 State NJ | 6’6” | F | Saint John Vianney 2024
Domingo is a new addition to the fold, having transferred from Sayreville High. Domingo saw decent time last year and showcased a skillset that was fairly broad as a player who can be a wing or a post player. He can attack the basket with power, has length and athleticism and can also shoot from deep. He’s long and lean. As he fills out he could become a key player for the Lancers the next two years.
Dylan Csik Dylan Csik 5'10" | PG Middletown South | 2023 State NJ | 5’10” |G | Middletown South 2023
The Eagles leader is a guard with a wide skillset. A good shooter with range well beyond the line. He’s a skilled ballhandler who can finish and dish around the rim against bigger players. He’ll be expected to lead South as a senior and will be asked to shoulder an even bigger load than he did as a junior. He had 25 vs CBA, 20 vs SJV, 21 vs RBR as his key performances as a junior. His social has seen him taking visits to colleges and interest is heating up.
