<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We've spent a lot of time promoting our upcoming Prep Hoops Indiana Freshman Showcase and Sophomore ID Camp coming up on September 8th. However, just two weeks later on September 22nd, we will host juniors and seniors around the state in front of a long list of small college coaches. This will be the best event of the fall that you can attend if you are interested in getting exposure to college coaches. Let's take a look at six under-the-radar prospects that will be attending The Expo on September 22nd.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>***Did we miss someone?

The 6'3" guard will get a chance to put his talent on display in front of an assortment of small college coaches at "The Expo" on September 22nd.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2053661"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d34cb040a2f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Avon had a lot of success last season, won the Sectional 12 title, and return a lot with high expectations going into 2024-2025. One of their under-the-radar contributors is this 5'9" point guard. Bethley is a key table-setter for the Orioles with a tight handle, good downhill quickness, and sound playmaking ability. Look for him to play a key role as a distributor for a very talented team this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2441621"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d34cb040a6f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Johnson II got himself on the map a bit in the summer with some strong performances with [program_tooltip program_id='2440561' first='Indiana' last='Elite F.E.E.D 2025']. The super athletic wing has the physical tools to translate as a two-way perimeter threat at the next level. Look for him to establish himself as a key piece of Park Tudor's deep rotation this season and find his way into the small college ranks somewhere.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1749329"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d34cb040aac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the more statistically success prospects over the last two seasons that you may not have heard of, Love is back and poised for a big senior season at Wes-Del High School. The skilled 5'11" guard averaged 15.5 points and 4.8 rebounds per game as a junior and had a strong showing at the Indiana Class Basketball All-Star Game early in the spring. Under-the-radar small college prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2053681"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d34cb040ae6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ward caught some attention around the state during the Charlie Hughes Showcase in June as he went off for 42 points in a win over Southport. He had a couple of other big scoring performances at the event as well. The skilled 6'1" guard is a talented shot-maker that has proven to be high percentage from beyond the arc. He is definitely one that small college coaches should make a point of watching at The Expo.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2444709"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d34cb040b1e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When looking for under-the-radar, high-upside prospects in the Class of 2025, [player_tooltip player_id='2444709' first='Wes' last='Ward'] is one that all small college coaches should get eyes on. The 6'8" forward has an intriguing mixture of offensive skill which includes the ability to stretch the floor a bit out beyond the arc. Ward is a long lefty that should catch the attention of any coaches in attendance at The Expo on September 22nd.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

We've spent a lot of time promoting our upcoming Prep Hoops Indiana Freshman Showcase and Sophomore ID Camp coming up on September 8th. However, just two weeks later on September 22nd, we will host juniors and seniors around the state in front of a long list of small college coaches. This will be the best event of the fall that you can attend if you are interested in getting exposure to college coaches. Let's take a look at six under-the-radar prospects that will be attending The Expo on September 22nd.
