<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a review of our preseason Top 10 public school basketball teams from southeastern Pennsylvania.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>1. Imhotep Charter: </strong>The defending 5A state champions no longer have Justin Edward's (Kentucky), but they still return enough talent to keep them in the top spot. All-State guard [player_tooltip player_id='1281786' first='Ahmad' last='Nowell'] (UConn commit) will bejoined by highly regarded 2026 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1613878' first='RJ' last='Smith'] and transfer [player_tooltip player_id='1611931' first='Kody' last='Colson'] to form an outstanding three guard rotation. Forwards [player_tooltip player_id='1477721' first='Ma'Kye' last='Taylor'] (Albany commit) and [player_tooltip player_id='1173985' first='Jeremiah' last='White'] are long athletes who can score in transition or on the interior. [player_tooltip player_id='1888747' first='Latief' last='Lorenzano-White'] and Zaahir Muhammad-Grey provide firepower on the wings. [player_tooltip player_id='2047550' first='Carnell' last='Henderson'] is a DI prospect flying under the radar. 2027 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='2407095' first='Zion' last='Green'] will turn heads too. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2. Executive Education ACS</strong>: This roster boasts a trio of perimeter prospects who can really fill it up. Scoring point guard Rylan Muniz (16.6 ppg.), shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1764304' first='Gabe' last='Hornberger'] (12 ppg.) and combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='2047680' first='Jaden' last='Shipley'] can all pop from behind the arc and create off the dribble. Complimenting those three is the interior play of 6'9” power forward [player_tooltip player_id='1850279' first='Lamine' last='Sanoh']. He is a beast on the glass at both ends. 2025 guard Heavin McCain will make major contributions as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>3. Constitution:</strong> 6'5” scoring machine [player_tooltip player_id='1123887' first='Amir' last='Speights'] is the headliner for a Generals squad that should post an outstanding 2023-24 season. Running with Speights will be elite floor general [player_tooltip player_id='1130841' first='Kyree' last='Latimer']. He does a fantastic job of controlling the tempo of a game. Shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1865352' first='Talasi' last='Henderson'] will stretch the floor with his 3-point shooting. Look for transfer [player_tooltip player_id='1848507' first='Perry' last='Fields'] to provide wing scoring and work as a secondary ball handler. Fields is one of the best kept secrets in the region.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>4. Spring Ford:</strong> In 2022-23 Spring Ford posted a historic season as they were the PAC Champs; the D1-6A runner ups and a 6A state semifinalists. With most of their key players returning, SF has the potential to improve on last year's results. Elite shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1460771' first='Jacob' last='Nguyen'] (multiple DI offers) and combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1281774' first='EJ' last='Campbell'] return to lead SF. They will be joined in the backcourt by quick and skilled 2026 guard prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1454265' first='Lymir' last='Green']. Multi-skilled forward Tommy Kelley is back to handle all the dirty work. Intriguing 2026 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1454268' first='Oben' last='Mokonchu'] appears ready for to step into the spotlight. Athletic 6'5” forward [player_tooltip player_id='2391414' first='Matt' last='Zollers'] (DI football recruit) will contribute in many ways.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>5. Unionville:</strong> Unionville finished last season as the District-1 5A runner up and made it to the state tournament. The bulk of that squad returns in 2023-24 and they are hungry for more. The 2024 guard trio of Charlie Kammeier, James Anderson, and [player_tooltip player_id='1850283' first='Ryan' last='Brown'] will lead Unionville. All three of these seniors can score, handle the rock, and distribute. The Longhorns will also feature he talents of [player_tooltip player_id='1493066' first='James' last='Brenner']. He is one of the top 2026 stretch-4 prospects in the area. [player_tooltip player_id='2383329' first='Nick' last='Diehl'] is a 6'6” athletic and high IQ small forward we expect will contribute on the interior. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Rest of the Top 10….</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>6.
