The 6-8 sophomore power forward used his athleticism where he was punishing defenders at the front of the rim or battling on the glass. He was doing a great job when it came to handling the basketball in transition, as well as his ability to guard multiple positions on the defensive side. Philon finished with a near double-double at 13 points and nine rebounds in the win over The Villages Charter.

The 6-3 sophomore guard played a huge role for his team helping erase a 17-point deficit to defeat Tampa Catholic. Harvey plays at his best when he is using his aggressiveness finishing off the bounce or off the catch. Harvey also adds as a threat to score from the perimeter when his team needs it most. Look for Harvey to continue playing a big role for his team as he could be a problem for opposing players in the next couple years.
The 6-2 sophomore point guard is having no problems to begin the season for Lake Highland Prep after coming over from Lake Nona during the offseason.
