Continue ReadingThe Senior class is winding down their KHSAA careers and getting ready for the next level. It’s been a good class for a long time and a ton of these players will be making an impact in college over the course of their careers. Let’s take a look at the top post players in this latest rankings update. This does not include any players who were in the top 10 in the class.
One of the first members of the 2024 class to commit to college, Gibson is headed to Liberty next year. Until then, he remains one of the best passing bigs in Kentucky and stuffs the stat sheet with a lot, every game out.
Highlights
One of Kentucky’s best rebounders, Charlie is a big time difference maker for Pikeville and his offensive game continues improving. Fitzer is the best post player in the mountains and one of the best in the entire state.
Highlights
Perhaps no one on this list has improved as much over their high school career as Brax has. Committed to Georgetown College, Ward is skilled and has a high basketball IQ. He plays hard and has become a reliable post scorer in the last two years.
Ellis transferred from Western as part of the mass exodus from there. A short stop at a prep school led to him landing at Jeffersontown. He’s yet to play for the Chargers so I assume he’s awaiting eligibility.
If there’s a player in the Senior class that I would recruit to the Juco level, it’s Mayhorn. He’s still raw on offense and figuring things out but Payton plays hard and has a very bright future.
