Daniel Bumpass Daniel Bumpass 6'3" | SF Friendship Tech | 2025 State MD | wing/guard | Friendship Tech (DC)
Bumpass and the Titans have not lost a game since December. They look like the favorites to repeat as PCSAA Champs. The versatile wing will factor into any positive result his team achieves.
David Bumpass David Bumpass 6'3" | SF Friendship Tech | 2025 State MD | wing/guard | Friendship Tech (DC)
Bumpass has been a key player during his team’s 21-game win streak. He was excellent during last year’s PCSAA Championship Game. Bumpass is a two-way difference-maker for the Titans.
Derek Dixon Derek Dixon 6'4" | SG Gonzaga | 2025 State #153 Nation MD | combo guard | Gonzaga (DC)
Dixon is one of the more talented players in the WCAC. The Eagles are always dangerous around this time of the year. Dixon is capable of big things against high-quality opponents. Whether he’s draining threes or picking out open teammates for easy looks, expect him to manufacture plenty of scoring chances.
Frankie Mannino Frankie Mannino 6'4" | SF Landon | 2025 State MD | wing/guard | Landon (MD)
Mannino has been a core guy for the dangerous Bears. He is is a factor both as a scorer and rebounder for his team. Mannino figures to log heavy minutes during this postseason run.
Jalen Rougier-Roane Jalen Rougier-Roane 6'5" | CG Sidwell Friends | 2025 State #142 Nation MD | wing/guard | Sidwell/Friends (DC)
Rougier-Roane is considered among the top tier of local 2025 prospects. He is an impact player for the Quakers and has quickly emerged as one of their more important players. If Sidwell hopes to reach its full potential, Rougier-Roane will likely be playing well.
