Zyree Collins Zyree Collins 6'0" | PG St. Mary's | 2025 State #338 Nation MO 5’11 St. Mary’s
Exavier Wilson Exavier Wilson 6'1" | PG Father Tolton | 2025 State #265 Nation MO 6’1 Father Tolton
Luke Walsh Luke Walsh 6'2" | SG Vianney | 2025 State #374 Nation MO 6’2 Vianney
Terron Garrett Terron Garrett 6'5" | SG CBC | 2025 State MO 6’5 CBC
Vince Dawson 6’5 Great Crossing
Christian Brown Christian Brown 6'7" | SF Franklin | 2025 State TN 6’7 Franklin
Jahadi White Jr. 6’8 Chaminade
Nicholas Randall Nicholas Randall 6'8" | PF Vashon | 2025 State #96 Nation MO 6’8 Vashon
Vito Perkovic Vito Perkovic 6'9" | C HHCA | 2024 TN 6’10 Hamilton Heights
A St. Louis centric team with 5 players from the area. Zyree Collins Zyree Collins 6'0" | PG St. Mary's | 2025 State #338 Nation MO , Luke Walsh Luke Walsh 6'2" | SG Vianney | 2025 State #374 Nation MO , and Exavier Wislon are three guards who put up big numbers on the offensive end this season. Collins is very talented in the P&R and makes tough shots look easy. He dominated as a high school player and similar performance on the circuit will build his recruitment. Wilson is a high upside guard due to his explosive ability. He’s able to make plays others can’t. Walsh is a competitive sharpshooter that brings energy. A player that draws a lot of attention. A new addition to this team is Vince Dawson out of Great Crossing. His performance at the Highland Shootout was impressive and he looks like a big-time wing that can score at every level. A potential MM-HM prospect with a strong summer. Jahadi White Jr. is playing up in the 17u age division and the physical elements won’t be tough for him to manage. He’s a well built 6’8 prospect that should get better from the experience. Nicholas Randall Nicholas Randall 6'8" | PF Vashon | 2025 State #96 Nation MO and Vito Perkovic Vito Perkovic 6'9" | C HHCA | 2024 TN are two interchangeable forwards that bring an inside-outside style to the floor. Randall is bouncy and active around the basket. Perkovic is skilled and can face the basket. Each gives size and length that’s much needed on the defensive end of the floor. This team looks very good on paper. There’s a number of players that are underrated from a national perspective. They’ll be primed to break out during the summer months.
