Crusaders PG had 8 quick points. Including two 3-pointers and a baseline jumper. Hit three more long balls, one of which was super deep, in the first 10 minutes. Giving him 17 right out the gate. Started to drive the lane more in the second half. But he’s starting to become a stronger, more efficient playmaker than I’ve seen in the past. Worked well off the pick and roll, finding Logan Steffensmeier Logan Steffensmeier 6’7″ | SF Sheboygan North | 2025 WI for two easy dunks in the final four minutes. Finished with 24 points and at least 6 assists.
Highlights
He could be a hidden gem in the 2025 class. Built like a college-level point guard which could see his stock rise in Wisconsin. Heated up in the second half with back-to-back 3-pointers. Strong baseline cut shortly after. But his ball-control and playmaking abilities are superb. Allowed Lakeshore to pull away late. The potential is definitely there. Can’t-miss kid for small schools.
Highlights
Crusaders PG who showed great hustle in transition. Two chase-down blocks in the opening few minutes vs Meanstreets. Put back a missed layup in transition vs Chicago Grinders. Strong, athletic PG to watch in 2026.
Highlights
Very underrated prospect for Indiana Game . Never lost his confidence after they fell behind double-digits early vs Meanstreets. In addition to a pair of assists, Pokorney hit a contested 3-pointer and converted a hard bucket at the rim shortly after. He reached double figures on another 3-pointer just 10 mins into the game. Started the 2nd half with a fake-pass for an easy layup. Another contested 3-pointer cut the lead to just 3 midway through the 2nd half. Big-time performance.
Took over late with his ability to attack the rim. Scored several buckets over numerous defenders and made difficult shots look easy. Drew plenty of fouls in the process. Hit the game-winning layup vs Meanstreets with about 25 seconds left.
Highlights
Deuce Owens
Deuce Owens
In a team-dominant effort, Deuce Owens displayed a variety of skills. He took advantage of his strong frame to get numerous inside buckets, including an and-one in the first half. But his playmaking abilities were on-point. Got everyone involved and excelled at analyzing defenses. A strong presence on the boards. Boxes out well.
A 6’5” F who showed he can put the ball in the net in a multiple ways. Against WI Crusaders, he had a strong finish in transition to start the game. Complemented that with a turnaround jumper shortly after. Overall, i’m really impressed with his ability to fill lanes and separate himself on the low block. Ended with 16 pts
Top 15 Indiana prospect is a three-level scorer with a strong athletic build. Really impressed with his ability to get to the rim. Showcasing an acrobatic layup package in the process. A pair pull-up jumper in the second half. He was even involved as a consistent rebounder throughout the contest. Scored 17 pts vs WI Crusaders.
