<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a preview of four <em>“must see”</em> matchups taking place on Saturday at Philly HS Live Session 1 that feature teams from southeastern Pennsylvania.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Upper Dublin vs. Reading</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The trio of shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1269299' first='Ryan' last='Mulroy'] (1st Team All-SOL selection), floor general [player_tooltip player_id='1888851' first='Kobe' last='Bazemore'] and point-forward [player_tooltip player_id='2047682' first='Idris' last='Rines'] (6'4′, 200 lbs.) return for an Upper Dublin squad with major expectations. Mulroy is a three-level scorer who is one of best in the area at converting on difficult shots. Meanwhile Reading graduated a host of starters and their rebuild starts this weekend. The 2024-25 Reading squad will lean heavily on guard [player_tooltip player_id='2427273' first='Jeremiah' last='Camara'] and multi-skilled wing [player_tooltip player_id='2247350' first='Weshly' last='Rosario']. Camara torches opponents off the dribble and Rosario can drain threes all day. Both Camara and Rosario are skilled transition finishers. Shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1540425' first='Rainier' last='Ramos'] is a prospect to watch for Reading. <em>Tipoff is at 10:10AM at Jefferson University</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Archbishop Ryan vs. Trinity</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Archbishop Ryan graduated its entire starting lineup that guided the team to the 5A state semifinals this past spring. However, Ryan still returns a deep and talented group that starts with guards [player_tooltip player_id='1382983' first='Deuce' last='Maxey'], [player_tooltip player_id='2424034' first='Semaj' last='Stone'], and [player_tooltip player_id='1279655' first='Michael' last='Green']. Power forward [player_tooltip player_id='2028256' first='Brandon' last='Russell'] will dominate the paint at both ends. Russell played fantastic ball on the spring circuit and raised his recruiting stock significantly. Trinity's lineup boasts all-state guard [player_tooltip player_id='1865345' first='Owen' last='Schlager'] (23 ppg.; multiple DI offers) as well as backcourt prospects [player_tooltip player_id='1890473' first='Reece' last='Brown'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2427375' first='Andre' last='Steele']. This past season Schlager posted back-to-back 30-point games in the District 3-3A tournament. <em>Tipoff is at 1:40PM at Jefferson University</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Neumann-Goretti vs. Camden Catholic (NJ)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The recent transfer of standout guard [player_tooltip player_id='1411663' first='Torrey' last='Brooks'] from Neumann to Camden, should give this already highly competitive game an extra edge. Despite the departure of Brooks, Neumann will return a powerful lineup that includes point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1608258' first='DeShawn' last='Yates'] and combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1188626' first='Keon' last='Mtume-Long']. For the Saints college coaches should also keep an eye on rising sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='2427604' first='Cassius' last='Laws'] and recent transfer addition Alassan N'Daye. In addition to Brooks, Camden's starting five boasts Top 5 ranked New Jersey prospect Emmanuel Joe-Samuel. <em>Tipoff is at 5:10PM at Jefferson University</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Devon Prep vs. Bishop Guilfoyle</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Devon Prep, the reigning 3A state champions hits the court this weekend with an impressive group of returning players. Stretch-4 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1230538' first='Zane' last='Conlon'] (17.6 ppg. &amp; 9.4 rpg.) and small forward [player_tooltip player_id='1874206' first='Reece' last='Craft'] (11.5 ppg. &amp; 6 rpg.) will be DP's primary scorers at Philly HS Live. But the supporting cast of guards should grab the attention of college coaches too. That list includes returning starters [player_tooltip player_id='1762897' first='Shane' last='Doyle'], [player_tooltip player_id='1865353' first='Mason' last='Thear'], and [player_tooltip player_id='2227000' first='Calvin' last='Smith']. Bishop Guilfoyle is a WPIAL powerhouse squad with shooting guard phenom [player_tooltip player_id='2471627' first='Danny' last='Haigh'] as their No. 1 option. 6'8” power forward [player_tooltip player_id='2478651' first='Trevor' last='Rehm'] does the damage on the interior for Guilfoyle. <em>Tipoff is at 6:20PM at Jefferson University.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
