As always, we had boots on the ground coverage from the opening tip until the final buzzer all weekend long. We will have more content in the coming days including All-Tournament teams, stock-risers, new names, and more. However, for now, let’s empty out the notebook and take a closer look at what we saw on Sunday specifically.
8:00 a.m. Crew Standouts
A staple of Ramsey’s Notebook is giving some special attention to those prospects who get out of bed and hit the ground running. There certainly was no shortage of strong play in the first round of games on Sunday as the Pacers Athletic Center was rocking from 8:00 a.m. sharp. Evan Mozingo Evan Mozingo 6'2" | SG Pendleton Heights | 2025 IN (Pendleton Heights H.S. 2025) was the first prospect to really stand out showcasing his catch-and-shoot ability with a handful of first half three-point shots for Team Future 2025. He also put the ball on the floor, drove it along the baseline, and finished strong off of two feet. Mozingo is a solid all-around offensive talent. Another prospect who stood out to begin the morning on Sunday was Julian Macon (St. Petersburg H.S. 2025) for the Q6 All-Stars 2025 out of Florida. This 6’6″ forward is incredibly long, bouncy around the basket, and was super active despite the 8:00 a.m. tip-off. Macon was consistently finishing at the rim and rebounding his area. Nate Tyler Nate Tyler 6'0" Yorktown | 2025 IN (Yorktown H.S. 2025) was very good for Team Future 2025 as well scoring 16 points in their win over Mike Glennon Elite 2025.
An excellent back-and-forth affair, Indy Heat -Competitive Greatness had to come back, and then hold on, to defeat 502 Elite 2025 out of the Louisville Area 78-69. Kyson Neddenriep Kyson Neddenriep 5'8" | PG Brownsburg | 2025 IN (Brownsburg H.S. 2025) had a couple of stretches where he got hot from beyond the arc finishing with a game-high 24 points on five three-pointers. The 5’9″ point guard also showcased some ability to create off of the dribble with a few creative finishes and great passes to open teammates. Aden Daugherty Aden Daugherty 6'3" | SF Mount Vernon (Fortville) | 2025 IN (Mt. Vernon Fortville H.S. 2025) added 16 points in the win as well.
Meanwhile, in the loss for 502 Elite , Cameron Busby (Collins H.S. 2025) led the way with 19 points. Ashton Foreman (Eastern H.S. 2025) added 15 points while a couple of three-point shots and a few athletic drives to the basket. 502 Elite made a great comeback around the midway point and built a relatively comfortable lead, but couldn’t hold off a skilled Indy Heat -Competitive Greatness team.
EG10 2025 Caps Off Undefeated Weekend
Two very talented teams from the Hoosier state faced each other to finish the weekend at The Stage on Sunday afternoon. A bit of a sloppy stretch by EG10 2025 in the early second half allowed Indiana Ambition 2025 to cut into their deficit and make it a close game into the final minutes, but ultimately EG10 held on and pulled away to win 81-66 to finish the weekend 4-0.
Hudson Horvath Hudson Horvath 6'1" | PG Park Tudor | 2025 State IN (Park Tudor 2025) led a group of four scorers in double-figures in this contest with 22 points. He had a few narrowly miss as well, but still connected on four three-point shots including a couple of really impressive ones off of the dribble. Horvath’s all-around playmaking ability off of the dribble was on full display not just on Sunday, but throughout the weekend as well. Jack Turner Jack Turner 6'4" | SF Southport | 2025 State IN (Southport H.S. 2025) added 14 points which included four three-point shots while Tavion Williams Tavion Williams 6'7" | PF Ben Davis | 2025 State IN (Ben Davis H.S. 2025) and Tyreese Burnett (Decatur Central H.S. 2025) each chipped in 11 points.
For Indiana Ambition, Jay Summitt Jay Summitt 6'3" | SF Evansville Harrison | 2025 State IN (Evansville Harrison H.S. 2025) put a bow on an excellent weekend scoring a team-high 15 points. His athleticism, length, and versatile defensive ability really stands out in this setting. Jace Jenkins Jace Jenkins 6'1" | SG Princeton | 2025 State IN (Princeton H.S. 2025) contributed 12 points while Jakob Wongler Jakob Wongler 5'8" Castle | 2025 IN (Castle H.S. 2025) added 11 points.
Quick Hitters
Logan Steffensmeier (Sheboygan North H.S. 2025) was one of the more impressive big men in the gym this weekend at The Stage. The 6’7″ forward for the Wisconsin Crusaders is very mobile for his, rim runs hard, and can drive it at you to his right hand from the perimeter. Definitely a name for small college programs to know.
Chris Terry Chris Terry 6'3" | SF Lawrence North | 2025 IN (Lawrence North H.S. 2025) had a strong weekend for INB Elite 2025. The 6’4″ forward is very physical and bouncy around the rim. He consistently rebounds his area, finishes at a high percentage inside, and is a good interior defender.
In arguably the best back-and-forth individual matchup of the weekend, Noah Sowders Noah Sowders 6'2" The Frankfort Christian Academy | 2024 KY (The Frankfort Christian Academy 2024) and Jancinth Prude (Hazelwood Central) each scored over 40 points according to unofficial GameChanger stats. Sowders was absolutely one of the best unsigned seniors at the event and had a great showing for Crossover Hoops 2025. Meanwhile, Prude and the Gateway Knights Basketball Club 2025 came up a bit short on the scoreboard despite an excellent individual performance.
No writeup from Sunday, or really this weekend in general, would be complete without mentioning Sam Frazier Sam Frazier 6'3" | PG Ballard | 2025 State KY (Ballard H.S. 2025) and what he did for Kentuckiana Hoops -Sprigg 2025. The 6’3″ guard was one of the top pure shooters and scorers at The Stage culminating in a perfect 4-0 weekend which included scoring 23 points on Sunday afternoon. His teammate Julian Miles Julian Miles 6'1" | SG South Oldham | 2025 State KY (South Oldham H.S. 2025) got hot in their 94-51 win over Reps317 2025 connecting on seven three-point shots on his way to joining Frazier with 23 points. Those two guys can flat out shoot the basketball.
