Michael Green Michael Green 5'10" | CG Archbishop Wood | 2025 State PA – 5’10” / 2025 / Archbishop Wood / Philly Revolution / Shooting Guard: This lefty long distance sniper with a high IQ scored 15 points in Wood’s 6A 2nd Round defeat of Lower Merion. However, what fans will remember about Green from yesterday’s contest will be his 4th quarter 3-point shootout with LM’s Owen McCabe Owen McCabe 5'10" | CG Lower Merion | 2024 State PA . In that final stanza, Green drained 3 threes during a back and forth between the two players that was extremely entertaining.
Zuri Harris Zuri Harris 5'11" | CG Coatesville | 2024 State PA – 5’11” / 2024 / Coatesville / PA Coalition / Combo Guard: Harris is a quick and multi-talented guard who can score off the dribble, knock down threes, hand out assists and play lockdown defense. Combine those assets with his incredible energy and you have the ultimate floor general. How he remains uncommitted is a mystery to us. Yesterday, Harris pushed Coatesville into the 6A quarterfinals with a 17-point (1 three) performance against Cumberland Valley.
Owen McCabe Owen McCabe 5'10" | CG Lower Merion | 2024 State PA – 5’10” / 2024 / Lower Merion / LM Wildcats / Combo Guard: After a rock steady overall effort, but quiet scoring night vs. Archbishop Wood, McCabe caught fire in the 4th quarter. During that brilliant stretch, McCabe splashed triples on four consecutive LM possessions. Two of his made treys came from well behind the NBA line. McCabe posted 15 points in this 6A 2nd Round contest, but it was not enough for LM to avoid elimination.
Azeem Murphy Azeem Murphy 6'4" | SF Math, Civics, & Sciences | 2024 State PA – 6’4” / 2024 / Math, Civics, & Sciences / Small Forward: Murphy is a powerful and polished interior prospect. His throwback small forward skills enable Murphy to produce points from the elbows, blocks or baseline. For a high school prospect, his footwork is extraordinary. On Wednesday Murphy exploded for ten 4th quarter points (15 points overall) as he led MCS to a win over Columbia in the 3A 2nd Round.
Ben Natal Ben Natal 6'2" | PG Central York | 2025 State PA – 6’1″ / 2025 / Central York / York Ballers / Point Guard: One of the top point guards in Pennsylvania’s Class of 2025 continues to lead his team through the 6A bracket. Last night in CY’s win over Chambersburg, Natal scored at every level as he posted 25 points. His ability to generate buckets off the dribble in a flash is especially impressive. Natal (1,000 pt. scorer) is a menacing on-ball defender too.
