Springfield-Delco (24) at Lower Merion (1)
Colin Treude – 6’5” / 2024 / Springfield (D) / PSB Philly / Small Forward: This York College (D3) commit is a traditional small forward with a high IQ. Treude scores on the blocks via low post moves and his quick face up game. He can work the offensive glass for points too. Treude can operate out of the high post as well. Treude registered 19 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks during Springfield’s (No. 24 seed) upset of Abington (9-seed). He then scored 15 points and grabbed in 6 rebounds as Springfield pulled off another D1-5A tourney upset over 8th seeded Abington.
Coatesville (5) at Chester (4)
Amon Fowlkes Amon Fowlkes 5'8" | CG Coatesville | 2025 State PA – 5’10” / 2025 / Coatesville / East Coast Power / Combo Guard: The super talented 2025 prospect in Coatesville’s three guard lineup would be a No. 1 option on most other teams. Fowlkes is a rock steady ball handler with quick bursts and elusive moves. That trifecta enables him to excel in the open court. When the pace slows, he can score off the dribble and knock home threes. He poured in 22 points (4 3PM) in Coatesville’s 2nd Round win over Plymouth Whitemarsh. As a nice bonus to his offensive skills, Fowlkes is an elite defensive prospect who frequently generates steals and deflections.
Jaseir Thompson Jaseir Thompson 6'0" | PG Chester | 2025 State PA – 6’0” / 2025 / Chester / Point Guard: This extraordinary lead guard is the best kept secret in a Chester’s deep lineup. Thompson (11 pts. in 2nd Rd.) is a fast athlete with shifty change of direction dribble moves. So, Thompson thrives in transition. In the half-court he can lace NBA distance triples and score off the dribble. Back in January, Thompson netted 17 points against Newark (DE). In early February he drilled 4 treys on his way to 16 points in a win over Interboro.
CB East (7) at WC Henderson (2)
Tyler Dandrea – 6’2” / 2024 / CB East / Total Skills / Point Guard: The only thing more impressive than this lefty’s 3-point shooting stroke is his ability to score in traffic. Dandrea can get into the paint off the dribble or via cuts to the rim. Once there, Dandrea has the strength to finish through fouls. Or he can use his bag of creative fakes and moves to avoid contact. In East’s 2nd Roundwin over Perkiomen Valley, He finished with 13 points (3 threes). This season Dandrea registered multiple games of 15+ points.
Garnet Valley (14) at Methacton (6)
Brady Krautzel – 6’1” / 2025 / Garnet Valley / PA Hoops Academy / Combo Guard: This starter is the third option in Garnet Valley’s offense. But Krautzel moves well without the rock and can pop threes, so the ball finds him. In the 2nd Round of the D1-6A tourney Krautzel poured in 20 points during GV’s upset of Spring Ford. Earlier this season he scored 16 points vs. LM. He also recorded 19 points (2 threes) and 6 rebounds against Ridley. In addition to hitting jumpers, Krautzel can run as a secondary ball handler.
