<p class="text-gray-700">Carney boasts a very quick jumper, adept at rising up against incoming contests. The returning three point leader in both percentage (37%) and volume (76 attempts), the guard will be increasingly relied upon for his floor spacing abilities. Far from just a shooter, Carney brings an improved handle which has allowed him to be a far more versatile scoring option with Colorado [program_tooltip program_id='2080820' first='Hoops' last='Academy'] this past summer.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Given the recent injury hurdles at Palmer, Gonzales will have an even greater opportunity than thought. Bringing a lightning quick jump shot off the catch, the guard will be a valuable shotmaker for this group. Part of what will allow him to play a good portion of his games is the constant defensive motor. Active flying all over to deflect passes and grab loose balls, the guard is an agent of chaos in the best way imaginable. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Herrera brings excellent size in the backcourt, following a complementary role at Fort Collins this past season, the guard will have ample opportunities to showcase his skills. Posting 8.3 points and 39% from distance, there are only a handful of prospects at his height with that degree of efficiency from distance. Defensively, the guard brings the necessary strength to match with a good number of forwards within the state. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Oliver is a smaller guard who was an elite shooter last season at 41% from distance, all while reaffirming his abilities throughout the summer with Vista Peak. Few guards bring his confidence scoring the ball from all three levels, ready and willing to rise up for shots off the bounce. Defensively, Oliver's low center of gravity is a constant thorn in the side of opposing playmakers. With a brand new organization both from coaching staff and roster turnover, the guard is set up for a high usage season over at VPP.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Rominger remains a consistent perimeter shooter, bringing a high release point and high motor on the glass. A knockdown shooter from distance, the guard brings both strength and soft touch to the table. Contributing 40% of his attempts on low sample size last season, the guard has a great opportunity ahead following the departure of a few names at Dakota Ridge. His rebounding abilities cannot be overlooked either, bringing the strength to compete against taller opponents when necessary. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Capable of heating up quickly, Hubert brings plenty of scoring upside at 6'4, effective creating quality looks from all three levels. Increasingly more consistent scoring the ball within the mid-range, the guard is honing his abilities to rise up for attempts off the bounce. Dakota Ridge looks to yet again solidify itself as a premier program in the Jeffco League. His wide reach will be valuable on the defensive end, capable of limiting opportunity for opposing playmakers within the passing lanes. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Noone provides consistent shotmaking off the catch, hitting multiple crucial shots for Eaglecrest in last year's playoff run. Putting up 5.1 points last season for the 6A program, he is an important release valve off of kickouts, although he can handle the rock when necessary. </p>
