Continue ReadingAthletic, active and skilled. Posted 13 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals and 1 block vs. ECU. Plays above the rim. Springy defender. Anticipates passes well, baits opponents into cross court passes. A true inside-out threat. Will go on the block one possession and play on the perimeter the next.

Tough swingman can put his head down and get to the rim with his left hand. Embraces contact when finishing drives. Gets after it on defense. Fills up the box score with his effort and athleticism.
Oglethorpe has offered the unsigned senior. An imposing, physical specimen that can overpower opponents, Stephen cleans up misses and can score on dropsteps through contact. He explodes off the ground for dunks and runs the floor to beat others to the rim. His jump shot and touch at the foul line will need retooling. Akwiwu double-doubled with 12 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block against the Georgia Suns.
High motor, high energy athlete that swoops in for offensive rebounds. Scores a lot on garbage points and dump-offs, but is getting better as a slasher. Is a threat to space out the floor and shoot the three. One of the most consistent rebounders and double-double guys in Georgia. Trending up.
Interesting prospect due to his size and touch. Shoots well from the perimeter both on the catch and off the dribble. Is a methodical ball-handler. Can create mismatches and shoot over smaller defenders.
Highlights
Very strong forward that has a growing game. Gets on the offensive glass for putbacks. Has shown over his career the ability to stretch the floor with his outside shot. Uses his body well on drives, spinning off defenders to get to the hoop. Tallied 10 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals vs. Upward Stars Carolinas. One of many talented forwards at River Ridge that should draw D-III and NAIA looks.

A bruiser of a power wing. Throws his weight around inside as a scorer and rebounder. Has a soft touch off the bounce, able to score with the mid-range pull-up. Strong and quick enough to guard any position.
