2. Executive Education ACS: This roster boasts a trio of perimeter prospects who can really fill it up. Scoring point guard Rylan Muniz (16.6 ppg.), shooting guard Gabe Hornberger Gabe Hornberger 6'5" | SG Executive Education Academy Charter | 2025 State PA (12 ppg.) and combo guard Jaden Shipley Jaden Shipley 6'4" | CG Riverfront Sports Academy (RSA) | 2025 State PA can all pop from behind the arc and create off the dribble. Complimenting those three is the interior play of 6’9” power forward Lamine Sanoh Lamine Sanoh 6'9" | PF Executive Education ACS | 2024 State PA . He is a beast on the glass at both ends. 2025 guard Heavin McCain will make major contributions as well.

Running with Speights will be elite floor general Kyree Latimer Kyree Latimer 6'3" | CG Constitution | 2024 State PA . He does a fantastic job of controlling the tempo of a game. Shooting guard Talasi Henderson Talasi Henderson 6'1" | CG Constitution | 2025 State PA will stretch the floor with his 3-point shooting. Look for transfer Perry Fields Perry Fields 6'1" | CG Constitution | 2024 State PA to provide wing scoring and work as a secondary ball handler. Fields is one of the best kept secrets in the region.
4. Spring Ford: 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 Jacob Nguyen Jacob Nguyen 6'3" | SG Spring Ford | 2025 State PA (multiple DI offers) and combo guard EJ Campbell EJ Campbell 6'0" | CG Spring Ford | 2024 State PA return to lead SF. They will be joined in the backcourt by quick and skilled 2026 guard prospect Lymir Green Lymir Green 5'8" | CG Spring Ford | 2026 State PA . Multi-skilled forward Tommy Kelley is back to handle all the dirty work. Intriguing 2026 prospect Oben Mokonchu Oben Mokonchu 6'6" | C Spring Ford | 2026 State PA appears ready for to step into the spotlight. Athletic 6’5” forward Matt Zollers Matt Zollers 6'4" | SF Spring Ford | 2025 PA (DI football recruit) will contribute in many ways.
5. Unionville: 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 Ryan Brown Ryan Brown 6'3" | CG Unionville | 2024 State PA will lead Unionville. All three of these seniors can score, handle the rock, and distribute. The Longhorns will also feature he talents of James Brenner James Brenner 6'5" | SG Unionville | 2026 State PA . He is one of the top 2026 stretch-4 prospects in the area. Nick Diehl Nick Diehl 6'6" | SF Unionville | 2024 State PA is a 6’6” athletic and high IQ small forward we expect will contribute on the interior.
