It featured both high school and post grad teams from all over the east coast including Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Here, we take a look at part three of the many standouts from the Virginia schools in attendance.
Adrian Myers Adrian Myers 6'5" | SF Massanutten | 2023 State VA | 6’7” PF | Massanutten ’23
The Mississippi State commit has been fantastic for Massanutten this year, and this weekend was no different as he put up big numbers and showed his two way impact. At 6’7” he’s able to guard multiple positions and protect the rim with his length and athleticism, he can step out where he’s a good shooter from deep and he can go to the mid-post area where he’s able to knock down the fadeaway. He finished with 19 points and 12 rebounds in their win over Mt. Zion and 30 points in their loss to London Basketball Academy.
Chase Nelson Chase Nelson 6'0" | PG Massanutten Military Academy | 2023 VA | 6’0” PG | Massanutten ’23
Nelson has really stepped up for Massanutten over the past few months, and he has become one of their best shot makers over that time. The 6’0” point guard is able to handle the ball and get them into their sets, he’s a good playmaker but he really shines in his ability to give it up and relocate where he’s able to knock down shots from deep at a high rate. He shot the ball extremely well throughout the weekend and was solid on the defensive end too.
Troy McKoy Troy McKoy 6'4" | SG Cushing Academy (MA) | 2024 #200 Nation NLG | 6’5” WG | Massanutten ’24
McKoy continues to be one of Massanutten’s most productive all-around players, as he finds ways to be productive even when he isn’t shooting the ball well. He will always find ways to score as he can make shots from multiple levels and gets to the line often, but he’s also a big time rebounder and defender and has grown into a leadership role that he showed this weekend. He also hit the game winning free throws in their win over Mt. Zion.
Austin Ball Austin Ball 6'7" | SF Miller School | 2023 State #203 Nation VA | 6’7” WF | Miller School ’23
Despite Miller School going 0-2 against two good teams in First Love and The Skills Factory, and Ball still showed solid play this past weekend. The George Mason commit shot the ball well from deep coming off of screens and in spot ups, he finished at the rim with authority and got to the line often and he showed good leadership as well.
Jordan Horne Jordan Horne 6'1" | PG Miller School | 2023 VA | 6’2” PG | Miller School ’23
Horne was named to the All Sleeper team of the event, after he had a very good game against First Love in their close loss. The available 6’2” point guard is one of the best in VA as he sets the tone on both ends of the floor, he gets downhill aggressively and finishes at the rim well and he made good decisions in transition too. He finished with 16 points 8 rebounds and 4 assists against First Love.
Eli DeLaurier Eli DeLaurier 6'8" | C Miller School | 2024 #173 Nation VA | 6’8” PF | Miller School ’24
Delaurier was the Maverick’s most consistent player this weekend, showing his all-around skillset and playing with a great motor in both of their games. He sprinted the floor hard in transition and got easy buckets out of it, he finished at and above the rim consistently, he showed his passing ability and he rebounded well too. He averaged 17.5 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks in their two games.
