PC's lineup features elite point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1136565' first='Jake' last='West'] (dozen DI offers), stretch-4 [player_tooltip player_id='2235863' first='Matt' last='Gilhool'] (multiple DI offers) and ace shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1271429' first='Kai' last='Shinholster'] (several DI offers).

<p><strong>Thu., Dec. 21<sup>st</sup>…Academy of New Church at St. Benedict's Prep (NJ):</strong> ANC's elite backcourt of [player_tooltip player_id='2229148' first='Bahsil' last='Laster'] (a couple DI offers) and [player_tooltip player_id='1608494' first='Dior' last='Carter'] are one of the top guard combos in the area. Still, opponents need to respect the talents of forward [player_tooltip player_id='2056714' first='Ryan' last='Warren'] and game plan for him. Over his last three contests Warren is averaging 15 ppg. Talented guards [player_tooltip player_id='1411649' first='Tobe' last='Nwobu, Jr.'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2056421' first='Jasin' last='Custus-Dancy'] provide additional perimeter scoring.

<p><strong>Fri., Dec. 22<sup>nd</sup>…Friends Select at St. Joe's Prep:</strong> Scoring point man [player_tooltip player_id='1460781' first='Jay' last='Chiles'] and combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1865291' first='Isaiah' last='Marshall'] are one of the most underrated guard duos in the region. Both are dribble drive wizards who can get paint touches at will. For FSS, keep an eye on up-and-coming prospects [player_tooltip player_id='1667409' first='Owen' last='Coughlin'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1890475' first='LaRon' last='Smith'] as well. SJP is running a five-guard starting lineup this season which presents significant match-up issues for opponents. That group of guards -- [player_tooltip player_id='1197607' first='Jaron' last='McKie'], [player_tooltip player_id='1188621' first='Olin' last='Chamberlain'], [player_tooltip player_id='1460800' first='Jordan' last='Ellerbee'], [player_tooltip player_id='1202209' first='Jalen' last='Harper'], and Matthew Gorman (Catholic Univ. commit) are all going to play at the next level. <em>Tip-off is at 7:00PM.</em></p>

<p><strong>Fri., Dec. 22<sup>nd</sup>…Dobbins Tech at Devon Prep:</strong> The Dobbins attack is led by point guard Saleem Hudson and shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1990921' first='Zach' last='Campbell']. Hudson recently posted an astonishing triple double of 19 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists. Early on Dobbins is getting major contributions from 2026 prospect Haneef Davis too. Devon Prep point-forward Zane Conlan (17 ppg.) is off to a fast start this season. His ability to score at all three levels is impressive. Running with Conlan is stretch-4 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1990791' first='Ben' last='Costello'] and scoring combo-guard [player_tooltip player_id='1865353' first='Mason' last='Thear']. <em>Tip-off is at 2:30PM</em></p>
