Against LaSalle he popped 3 triples and worked the mid-range on his way to 13 points. Dennis did a solid job on the glass too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2047831' first='Langston' last='Foster'] </strong><strong>– 6'1″ / 2026 / [program_tooltip program_id='2078697' first='Philly' last='Pride'] Select / Wing: </strong>It was a quiet scoring night for Foster (2 points), but he is an athletic, quick, and versatile prospect who is a plus player at both ends.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1188249' first='Kevin' last='McCarthy'] </strong><strong>– 6'4” / 2024 / Philly Revolution / Wing:</strong> This three-level scoring machine was on-fire from deep last night. McCarthy (Army commit) drained 7 threes, several from NBA range, as he totaled 29 points. McCarthy also displayed an improved ability to score through contact. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2028258' first='Matt' last='McCarthy'] </strong><strong>– 6'2″ / 2025 / [program_tooltip program_id='2078678' first='East' last='Coast Power'] / Shooting Guard:</strong> McCarthy (transfer from Archmere in Delaware) has been a tremendous addition to the EA lineup. He is a playmaker at both ends. Last night he recorded 11 points (1 three) and impacted every facet of the game. He was especially good at dictating the tempo EA wanted to play with. He adds speed and an element of toughness to their roster.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1441524' first='Calvin' last='Szoradi'] </strong><strong>– 6'7″ / 2024 / [program_tooltip program_id='2078678' first='East' last='Coast Power'] / Small Forward:</strong> Szoradi contributed 4 points to EA's winning effort. We were impressed with his off-ball movement and shooting touch as well as his high IQ and rebounding. He is just scratching the surface of his potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><u>LaSalle CHS</u></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Liam Hawley </strong><strong>– 5'10″ / 2024 / Combo Guard: </strong>When this college baseball prospect is not roaming center field, he does a fantastic job as a “3 and D” style player for the LaSalle hoops team. Hawley (5 pts.; 1 3PM) can also run as a secondary ball handler when needed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2336705' first='Grayson' last='McKeogh'] </strong><strong>– 6'8″ / 2026 / Power Forward: </strong>McKeough is a standout football player who brings an interior presence to LaSalle's lineup. He produced 10 points via dives to the rim, operating in pick-n-roll action and working the offensive glass. At the other end McKeogh, rebounds and provides rim protection. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Nick Parisi </strong><strong>– 6'3″ / 2025 / Next Play / Shooting Guard: </strong>This 3-level scorer first caught our attention during the Comp Edge Fall League. Last night he continued to impress us with a 20-point performance.Parisi can splash triples (2 3PM), score off the dribble and excels in the open court. Despite his scoring prowess, he will not hesitate to make the extra pass. College coaches will love Parisi's smooth and instinctive play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1191281' first='Joe' last='Shields'] </strong><strong>– 6'0″ / 2024 / Philly Revolution / Combo Guard: </strong>Shields (5 pts; 1 3PM) did not put-up big scoring numbers last night but his versatility was impressive. He can play off the ball or operate as a primary ball handler. His jump shot is extremely dependable. As a bonus, he can defend multiple positions. <strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1890471' first='Prestin' last='Washington'] </strong><strong>– 6'1″ / 2026 /</strong> <strong>Next Play / Combo Guard: </strong>Flying under the radar for LaSalle is this quick guard with elusive handles. Washington (3 points) came off the bench to provide a nice spark with his 3-point shooting and tenacious on-ball defense. He can also facilitate for teammates off the dribble. Washington is a 2026 to watch for the remainder of this season. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
