Mehrman ends his magnificent career where he was a 1,000 point scorer. This is no easy feat in AA basketball. He exploded for 27 points in the opening game win. He would have liked to be more efficient in the next two games, but he was always a threat that required defensive attention and he impacts the game with sound defense with quick anticipatory hands.
Game 1 – 27 points (8-15 FG) (2-5 3FG) – 2 assists – 3 steals
Game 2 – 15 points (6-18 FG) – 6 rebounds – 4 assists – 1 steal
Game 3 – 7 points – 3 rebounds
Phipps had a great Senior season as the inside presence for Harrisburg. Showed mid-ability and ability to hit a three. Great strength in the paint to be able to push bodies around in the paint.
Game 1 – 20 points (9-16 FG) – 5 rebounds – 1 block
Game 2 – 6 points (3-5 FG) – 3 rebounds
Game 3 – 17 points (8-15 FG) – 2 blocks – 2 steals
Braeden has such a nice offensive game that has continued to expand throughout the years. Known for his 3-point ability, stroke, and range, he’s much more than that offensively. Has some speed and explosion when attacking. Uses his length well to create turnovers on D.
Game 1 – 6 points – 1 block – 3 steals
Game 2 – 10 points (4-12 FG) (2-6 3FG) – 1 block – 3 steals
Game 3 – 12 points (5-12 FG) (2-7 3 FG) – 2 rebounds – 2 assists – 2 steals
Highlights
Plack doesn’t need to score to make a large impact on a game. He’s always affecting and altering things defensively, on the boards, and outright being around the ball, consistently. He can also make teams pay from the three-point line, and he hit four vs Watertown.
Game 1 – 16 points (6-8) (4-6 3FG) – 13 rebounds – 5 assists – 1 block – 1 steal
Game 2 – 8 points (1-3 3FG) – 9 rebounds – 1 steal
Game 3 – 6 points – 14 rebounds – 1 assist – 1 block – 1 steal
Feeldy needs to have the label as one of the best point guard defenders in the state. Easily one of the top athletes in movement and agility in all directions. He will deny and not let his talented matchup breathe.
Game 1 – 2 points – 5 rebounds – 6 assists – 2 steals
Game 2 – 9 points (3-5 FG) (3-3 FT) – 2 rebounds – 1 assist – 2 steals
