Qudire Bennett Qudire Bennett 6'4" | SF Plymouth Whitemash | 2023 State PA – 6’4″/ Senior / Plymouth Whitemarsh / L&L Running Rebels / Wing: Bennett began last week by netting 16 points during a tight victory over archrival Upper Dublin. Next, Bennett poured in 28 points in a win over Wissahickon. Bennett is one of the top uncommitted scoring wing prospects in the region. He can play a finesse game or bully ball.
Terrence Cobb – 6’1″/ Senior / Chester / Prim3 Tim3 / Combo Guard: Cobb tipped off a recent stretch of outstanding play by lighting up McKean (DE) for 33 points. He then notched 24 points (6 made threes) against 6A powerhouse Reading. Cobb excels in transition. In the half-court this lefty can obviously hit triples. However, if defenses over play him, Cobb will slash to the basket for a catch and lay-in.
Alex Hermann – 6’2” / Junior / Methacton / Eastern PA Elite / Combo Guard: Hermann possesses an automatic jump shot and moves extremely well without the ball. He can get buckets off the dribble as well. Recently he scored 23 points (2 threes) against Perkiomen Valley and 16 points in win over Pottsgrove. The fast-rising 2024 prospect is currently averaging 17 ppg.
Duce Jackson Duce Jackson 6'6" | SF Collegium Charter | 2023 State PA – 6’6” / Senior / Collegium Charter / 610 City / Small Forward: Jackson’s torrid start (19 ppg. and 8 rpg.) to the 2022-23 season continued with 24 points and 12 rebounds vs. Bristol. He then poured in 28 points against Faith Christian. His mid-range game is exceptional as is his ability to score over double teams.
Lucas Orchard Lucas Orchard 6'4" | SF Devon Prep | 2023 State PA – 6’4” / Senior / Devon Prep / Prim3 Tim3 / Wing: Orchard is a versatile, two-way prospect who is on fire of late. This past week he recorded 15 points and 4 rebounds in win over Cristo Rey. After that, Orchard tossed in 25 points, grabbed 7 boards, and had 3 steals in DP’s defeat of Rutgers Prep (NJ). In the last six months, Orchard’s offensive skills have shown significant improvement. The fact that college coaches are still sleeping on this kid is criminal.
Thomas Sorber Thomas Sorber 6'9" | C Archbishop Ryan | 2024 State #58 Nation PA – 6’9” / Junior / Archbishop Ryan / Team Final EYBL / Power Forward: Sorber is one of the most heavily recruited bigs in Pennsylvania and after this week it is easy to see why. He posted a jaw dropping game against King’s Fork (VA) — 24 points, 16 rebounds, and 11 blocks. Then Sorber threw up another double-double (13 points & 10 rebounds) against Bishop McNamara (MD).
Robert Wright III Robert Wright III 6'0" | PG Montverde Academy (FL) | 2024 State #35 Nation FL – 5’11” / Junior / Neumann-Goretti / Team Final EYBL / Power Forward: In four games at the Iolani Classic in Hawaii, Wright averaged 26.5 ppg. and helped NG capture the hardware at this prestigious event. This Baylor commit continues to display elusive handles, three level scoring ability and tremendous instincts for the game. He is the early favorite to win PCL Player of the Year.
