Between Co-Vid cancelations, emigration to other states, in-state transfers, quitters, the normal football focusers, the rankings changed perhaps more than any other.

missed a halfcourt heave. Jones slashed pretty well and defended on-ball better than average. Passed eagerly. Insensible earned him this ranking though.
Damjan Simun, King’s Academy
Ideal size for the position.
Camden Lockett Camden Lockett 6'3" | SG South Gibson | 2023 State TN , South Gibson
Exceptional height for the position. He is listed and actually 6-foot-4. Lockett is a strong outside shooter and a fantastic rebounder, even very rarely surpassing ten rebounds in a game. Lockett is not a blazing PG. He tends to beat his man with long strides. Adept catch-and-shoot guy. Pitches for South Gibson baseball team.

Feisty. Scored 32 points in the season opener. Fast hands. Alexander recorded six steals in a single game this year. Though an average to below average rebounder, Alexander wisely finds his rebounder and quickly pushes the ball, turning defense into offense. Facing Mt. Juliet at Mt. Juliet, AA repeatedly dribbled into the gut of the defense. Slightly quicker than the average 4A guard. His speed will fit right in line with an NAIA program.
