As a bonus, TF's roster boasts 6'11” [player_tooltip player_id='1188064' first='Ty' last='Iwanonkiw'] from North Allegheny. While he is often listed as a center, Iwawonkiw plays like an elite stretch-4.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>East Coast Power HGSL - 17U: </strong>The rumors that ECP was bringing in a truck load of talent for the spring circuit proved to be true. Running point will be two of the top ranked 2024 guards in the region in [player_tooltip player_id='1187956' first='Aasim' last='Burton'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1173986' first='Fazl' last='Oshodi']. With those to at the helm, you know this squad will play with pace.

Plus, this roster contains two impressive stretch-4 prospects in [player_tooltip player_id='1379452' first='Andrew' last='Phillips'] and Micah Hill. Flying under the radar on this team is combo guard Ralph Nyle-Beyer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Philly Revolution HGSL - 17U:</strong> One of the most impressive teams on the 2022 grassroots circuit returns with an even better roster. Archbishop Wood standout [player_tooltip player_id='1483181' first='Josh' last='Reed'] will once again lead this squad. Reed put his name on the recruiting map last summer with a monster July circuit.

They can also dominate the paint with their outstanding bigs, [player_tooltip player_id='1379429' first='Donovan' last='Fromhartz'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1888747' first='Latief' last='Lorenzano-White']. Fromhartz can play as a stretch-4 as well. Finally, 6'8” center Everett Barnes is a highly regarded interior prospect from New Jersey.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BW Elite HGSL - 15U:</strong> Brad Wannamaker's top 15U team is an impressive collection of players from our <a href="https://prephoops.com/pennsylvania/rankings/2026-rankings/">updated Class of 2026 rankings</a>, including No. 1 rated prospect, [player_tooltip player_id='1608275' first='Jordan' last='Dill'].
