There are a lot of players that have made their presence known and look to continue to rise. Here is a list of some young talent that played well.
2026 Alta High School || PG Dash Reiser Dash Reiser 5'9" | CG Alta | 2026 State UT ||
Dash is a player that plays low to the ground and can really handle the ball. Most defenders respect his driving ability but he is so shifty and great with reading the defense that he finds ways to score. Dash was cooking and when he gets a switch he gets to work. Shoots the ball very well and he has quickness paired with vision as he can make some great passes. One of the best freshman over at Alta that should develop nicely over there behind his older brother.
2025 APA Draper || PG Andrei Olivo Andrei Olivo 5'8" | PG Juan Diego Catholic | 2025 State UT ||
Andrei has a quick little cross and handle on him that allows him to create. He keeps the defense busy with his handle and ability to get by defenders that he allows his teammates to move away from the ball and he can find them with his vision and superior passing skills. He plays for a small school which will likely give him more opportunities to showcase his talent.
2024 Herriman High School || W Hayden Gribble Hayden Gribble 6'6" | SF Corner Canyon | 2024 State UT ||
Hayden has been putting in work and although it is no secret that the kid can jump out of the gym, he has some other skills too and you can see it in his shooting. He is a good shooter. This means trouble because he is going to have closeouts he can attack and get to the rim. Look for him to be more aggressive as that is what we see he is doing prior to the beginning of the high school season. He should be an important player for Herriman this season.
2026 Cyprus High School || G Koli C. Fosita Koli C. Fosita 6'4" | PF Cyprus | 2026 State UT ||
Koli is an impressive athlete that is a jack of all trades. He is tough to start off and he is a kid that will dive on the floor and mix it up with anyone. Koli can push the ball up the floor and make some good moves with his handle. Likely a player in the class of 2026 that will get varsity minutes. He does a lot of good things that will allow him to see the floor. High ceiling and he is a big kid with great size.
