Continue ReadingSeason eight of the Check Rock League continued this week with playoff semifinal games on Tuesday evening and then the championship game on Friday night.
This invitation only league features elite 2024 through 2027 prospects from all over the Delaware Valley taking the courts at the 76ers Fieldhouse (DE).
Below is a review of the prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania (and beyond) who impressed during Week 5 action at the 2023 Check Rock League.
Player of the Week:
Jordan Ellerbee Jordan Ellerbee 6'2" | CG St. Joseph’s Prep | 2025 State PA – 6’2” / 2025 / St. Joe’s Prep / NJ Scholars EYBL / Combo Guard: Ellerbee started his week at the Check Rock League by registering a ridiculous 25 points and 10 rebounds double-double in the semifinals. He then posted 19 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists in the championship game as Ellerbee pushed his squad (Bay Ray’s) to the 2023 CRL title. This week’s outstanding performances capped off an extremely impressive summer by this three-level scoring guard. Ellerbee is a versatile prospect who has a major impact at both ends of the floor. He holds an offer from Albany, and we expect more to come pouring in this fall.
