With a great motor and stellar play he was able to lock in an offer and commit soon after to a program in Southern Utah University that is quickly gaining ground with their excellent play and production. With good shooting ability at the Pg positions he will be a threat at the next level as he forces teams to make a tough decision on pick n' rolls because they will not be able to go under. He breaks into the Top 10 as a top notch prospect heading to a D1.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1688043"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-641361585f677"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Elijah was a bright spot over at Roy as a SF Elijah has been playing well all year.

He played in a region that was tough and he showed up to play every night and put in work. He was dominating the boards on the defensive end and when it came to crashing the boards on the offensive end he was always active. He created a lot more scoring opportunities for his team they way he would play and the motor he had. He does have that next level motor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1561701"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64136a3420564"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alex was one of those ultimate glue guys on a team that was guard dominant. Alex was guarding bigs he was using his mobility and he was a player that did not a play ran for him, he was simply active and finding ways to make positive plays. Undersized as a forward but he plays with so much energy that at times you do not notice. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1548046"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64136a34205d1"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ethan is an unreal athlete that can play at the next level. The NWAC should be all over him but he can land on a D3,D2 or NAIA.
