Jaden Colzie Jaden Colzie 6'0" | PG Plymouth Whitemarsh | 2024 State PA – 5’10” / Junior / Plymouth Whitemarsh / NJ Scholars Elite / Point Guard: With District 1-6A tournament opponents locked in on “P-Dub’s” Qudire Bennett Qudire Bennett 6'4" | SF Plymouth Whitemash | 2023 State PA and Chase Coleman Chase Coleman 6'2" | PG Rocktop Academy | 2024 PA , this typically pass first lead guard was presented with a golden opportunity to showcase his scoring talents. Colzie stepped up and delivered. In their semifinal win against Lower Merion, Colzie got to the cup and drained 3 triples (16 points overall). Then in the D1-6A championship contest, with “P-Dub” trailing in the 4th quarter, Colzie went off for 13 points and pushed the Colonials to the title. In that win he registered 16 points overall on the strength of 3 threes.
Nick Coval Nick Coval 6'1" | CG Parkland | 2024 State PA – 6’2” / Junior / Parkland / Team Final EYBL / Shooting Guard: To say Coval registered an impressive three game run to capture the District 11-6A hardware is an understatement. This deceptively athletic 2-guard used his lethal 3-point stroke, quick dribble pull-ups and transition scoring to average 21.6 points and 2.6 made 3-balls per contest. Coval poured in 27 points in their quarter final win over Northampton and 24 in Parkland’s title game victory over Liberty. State tournament opponents who think Coval is a one-dimensional perimeter shooter are in for a rude awakening.
Ruben Rodriguez Ruben Rodriguez 6'2" | PG Reading | 2023 State PA – 6’1” / Senior / Reading / Team Final Red / Wing: One of the top scoring floor generals in SEPA continued to destroy opponents this week. AcrossReading’s three District playoff games Rodriguez averaged 28.6 ppg. and 2.5 made threes per contest. The highlight of Rodriguez’s most recent stretch of stellar play was a 42-point (3 threes) outburst during a win over Chambersburg in the quarterfinals. This Rider University commit was also instrumental in Reading’s 55-54 OT win vs. Cumberland Valley in the District 3-6A championship game (12 points; 2 threes).
Jahrel Vigo Jahrel Vigo 6'1" | CG Allentown Central Catholic | 2025 State PA – 6’1” / Sophomore / Allentown Central Catholic / Team Final Red / Combo Guard: Between the District 11-4A semifinal and championship games Vigo averaged 15.5 per night. In ACC’s 4A championship contest win, this versatile prospect with hops led the way with 22 points and 7 steals against archrival Bethlehem Catholic. This past week Vigo scored in transition, drove to the rack where he finished with authority and drained the occasional 3-pointer. Obviously, he is a plus defender as well.
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 / Point Guard: During an extremely disappointing overtime loss to Roman Catholic in the PCL championship game, Wright (Baylor commit) recorded 13 points (1 three), 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Next, this electric, three level scorer torched Overbrook 43 points (5/10 on triples) in the District 12-4A title game. Additionally, Wright grabbed 6 rebounds and had 6 steals in the victory. There is no doubt that Wright owns elite scoring skills, but Wright also continues to prove he is one of the most well rounded, high IQ guards in the region.
