Burt is fast, athletic and has eye popping lift. He is a major transition threat, can splash threes and score off the bounce.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2703264' first='Logan' last='Chwastyk'] </strong><strong>– 6'8″ / 2028 / Malvern Prep / Team Melo / Small Forward: </strong>Chwastyk is a 2028 who should have an immediate impact for MP. This wiry youngster can knock down threes as well as mid-range jumpers and score on dives to the cup. He also owns a developing low post game. Yesterday Chwastyk announced via social media that he had received an offer from Cal State Bakersfield. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1764219' first='Jake' last='Dallas'] </strong><strong>– 6'3” / 2025 / York Catholic / [program_tooltip program_id='2428253' first='Team' last='Final Red'] EYBL / Shooting Guard:</strong> During his junior campaign Dallas (1,000+ point scorer) averaged 23 points and 5 rebounds per night while shooting 37% on threes. He was a 1st Team All-YAIAA as well as a 2nd Team 3A All-State selection. Recently, Dallas took s visit to Arcadia (D3) and pulled in an offer from that program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1454254' first='Luca' last='Foster'] </strong><strong>– 6'5″ / 2026 / Archbishop Carroll / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Wing:</strong> This summer Foster has impressed college coaches with his electric open court skills. He posted monster performances at Philly HS Live and on the EYBL circuit. Foster already holds a nice list of DI offers (Villanova, Miami, etc.) and this week he added Xavier to his pile. He is widely considered the top 2026 wing prospect in the area.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Dylan Homenick </strong><strong>– 6'11″ / 2025 / Perkiomen School / Canada Elite / Power Forward: </strong>Homenick may be a new name to us here in SEPA, but he is well known on the national scene as a double-double machine. During the 2023-24 high school season Homenick posted a ridiculous 45 points and 15 rebounds performance. This stretch-5 prospect recently received an offer from Idaho State.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1466599' first='Chase' last='Smucker'] </strong><strong>– 5'11″ / 2025 / Lampeter-Strasburg / York Ballers / Combo Guard:</strong> Smucker has been a fantastic three-level scoring machine this summer including most recently at the Big 60 Showcase. College coaches will love his athleticism and 3-point shooting. Earlier this week Bloomsburg University (D2) recognized Smucker's potential by extending him an offer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2195052' first='Tyler' last='Sutton'] </strong><strong>– 6'3″ / 2027 / Roman Catholic / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Combo Guard:</strong> Villanova head coach Kyle Neptune continues his dogged pursuit of local talent by sending an offer to our No. 1 ranked 2027 prospect. Sutton is an electric guard who does an amazing job of balancing between scoring and distributing. His transfer to Roman Catholic makes that squad an immediate contender for the 2024-25 PCL title.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1287318' first='Carter' last='Wamsley'] </strong><strong>– 6'5” / 2025 / Eastern York / York Ballers / Small Forward:</strong> Recruiting for this point-forward prospect with a well-rounded skill set and a high IQ continues to pick up steam. He just added offers from Lock Haven (D2) and Bloomsburg University (D2) to his list. After he averaged 12 points and 11 boards per game at the MHC Summer Live Finale, we are confident more offers are on the way for this versatile big man.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><u>SEPA Commitments</u></strong><strong>:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1369805' first='Jayden' last='Kelsey'] </strong><strong>– 6'6” / 2025 / Westtown School / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Wing:</strong> In 2023-24 Kelsey (HM All-FSL selection) posted 10 points; 6 rebounds and 4 assists per game.
