For today's spotlight, we take a look at the Hamilton Southeastern Royals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Hitters</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Finished 7-18 last season</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>lost to Fishers in Sectional </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Haven't had a winning season since 2020-21</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>John Ashworth returns for 3rd year as head coach. 16-32 overall at HSE. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Top Player: [player_tooltip player_id='2079501' first='Nate' last='Orr V']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Orr is one of the prospects that has really jumped out on our radar over the recent months due to his great play for Kyle Gut Elite over the summer. The 6'3″ long, athletic guard is very good at attacking the basket off of the dribble. He is aggressive offensively and will look to give the Royals a scoring punch in the backcourt. He makes his debut for Indiana high school basketball in the coming months. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='1275826' first='Donovan' last='Hamilton']</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hamilton is a real solid backcourt partner for Orr. He is very physically gifted as a 6'3″ strong, athletic wing. His best trait is getting to the basket off of the dribble, but he scored it all over the floor at different times over the weekend. Always been a guy to keep an eye on and that will continue this coming season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Important Roster Members:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1201800' first='Michael' last='Griffith']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1295379' first='Eli' last='Robinson']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1158212' first='Deion' last='Miles']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1547499' first='Kameron' last='Anthony']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1277729' first='Carson' last='Baugh']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1547433' first='Gavin' last='Papandria'] - </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1158237' first='Donovan' last='Rhodes']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2056301' first='Braeden' last='Totton']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Notable Games (Confirmed)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Brebeuf Jesuit (11/22)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>vs Fishers (12/15)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Homestead Tournament (12/27)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Westfield (12/12)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>vs Zionsville (1/19)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>at Lawrence North (2/20)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
