<p><strong>Player to Watch:</strong></p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1543638' first='Carter' last='Parsons'] - The star for Betsy Layne has been an efficient scorer thus far in his AAU season and looks to establish himself as one of the best point guards in the 2026 class. Parsons is used to heavy usage rate with the ball in his hands and doesn't shy away from taking big shots when his team needs them.</p>

<p><strong>X Factor:</strong></p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1901828' first='Zach' last='Hutchinson'] - Hutchinson checks a lot of boxes as a prospect and looks like he's not done growing or developing yet. With his length and athleticism, you should expect Zach to be a difference maker this weekend if his motor is running wide open for the tournament.</p>

<p><strong>New Name:</strong></p>

<p>Devin Evans, Travontay Thomas and Landen Miree - This Vision team actually has 3 Ohio natives on the roster in Evans, Thomas and Miree. Their coach says that all 3 play major roles for the squad so it will be interesting to see some new faces this weekend, even if they're from Ohio.</p>
