Karon Bailey Karon Bailey 6'1" | CG St. Andrew's | 2026 State MD | St. Andrew’s ‘26
Bailey is a microwave-type of guard prospect who is shifty with the ball. He can score and distribute but also remains active defensively.
Jamari Jenkins Jamari Jenkins 5'9" | PG Jefferson | 2025 State #165 Nation WV | Jefferson ‘25
Winner is a good word to describe Jenkins. He keeps the ball on a string, displays excellent court vision, and does not get sped up. Jenkins is a fierce defender both on and off the ball. Some may be wary of his small stature, but he is equipped with tear drops among a wide arsenal of go-to scoring moves in the lane. Jenkins can isolate on the perimeter and exploit favorable matchups, or get downhill where he seeks contact on his drives to the cup.
Jacob Randall Jacob Randall 6'3" | SF Severn | 2025 State MD | Severn ‘25
Randall is a physical, fearless, and versatile player who has been a consistent producer for the Admirals. He is active on defense, helps rebound, and gets frequent paint touches. Randall is an efficient scorer who uses ball fakes and earns plenty of trips to the foul line.
Evin Thompson Evin Thompson 6'0" | PG Sherwood | 2025 State MD | Sherwood ‘25
I watched Thompson drop 21 points to go along with 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals in a home win over Whitman to start the season. He was assertive on offense throughout the game and had the green light. Thompson grabbed multiple rebounds out of his area and pushed the ball quickly in transition. He also guarded the opposing team’s best player.
Elwyne Wordlaw Elwyne Wordlaw 6'0" | PG Frederick | 2024 State MD | Frederick ‘24
Wordlaw is a skilled guard who has a complete all-around game. He gets to his spots from the mid-range, exhibits impressive court vision, and is a crafty finisher with either hand. Wordlaw is quick with the rock in transition but won’t hesitate to throw it ahead either.
