<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1370501' first='Jaren' last='Curtis'] | Bishop McNamara (MD) '25</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Curtis is a 6'1" guard who is one of the more menacing on-ball defenders you'll find. He is a stingy pickpocket at the point of attack. Curtis is also terrific at denying his man the ball. Offensively, he is a confident finisher who knows how to play off two feet. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1948343' first='Jack' last='Furman'] | Riverdale Baptist (MD) '24</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Furman is a 6'3" guard who is known for his shooting but also does other things well when his shot isn't falling. He will help clean the defensive glass. Furman has some breakdown ability off the bounce and can set up teammates with his passing. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1963529' first='Daion' last='Jones'] | Varina (VA) '26</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jones is a bigger guard who is exceptional as a finisher and a playmaker. He demonstrates impressive body control, court vision, and unselfishness.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1588133' first='Derrick' last='Robinson Jr']. | St. Mary's Ryken (MD) '26</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Robinson is a 6'3" guard who thrives as a playmaker. He is a creative passer who is also reliable as a finisher. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1367432' first='Marcus' last='Rustin'] | Wise (MD) '24</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Rustin is a 6'0" guard who is very athletic. He is an alert defender who anticipates passes well and quickly turns defense into offense.</p>
