There's a reason that he's ranked in the top 20 in the state. It's because he was putting on scary good performances this spring and summer. Slack put up 30 point games, while shooting at a very high percentage and not even having to be ball dominant to do it. If offensive efficiency and high percentage scoring is scary to opposing coaches, than Slack is a nightmare.

A next level frame combined with next level athleticism can be a scary thought for opponents. That's what they're up against with Aukeman. He had a great summer and fall and saw his stock soar. I was really impressed with the way he worked the baseline and attacked with physicality.
