Baratta is a high IQ stretch-4 prospect with 3-levels coring skills. He recently posted games of 21 points and 17 rebounds as well as 21 point (4 threes) and 11 rebounds. In addition to splashing threes, Baratta has scored in the mid-range and on dives to the cup. Still, the most impressive item with Baratta recently may be the improvement at the defensive end where he has developed into a legitimate rim protector.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2251289"],"_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-676efb4790631"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> After watching Fisher play during the fall at the Coatesville Showcase, we expected this three-level scoring guard to have an impressive junior campaign. Still, we were not expecting Fisher to drop 34 points on a talented and defensive minded Chester squad. In that win over Chester, Fisher popped jumpers form all over the floor, scored off the bounce and got out in transition for buckets. Fisher is sneaky athletic and owns decent hops. That combination of assets enabled Fisher to cap off a couple fast break with slams. Fisher has been outstanding two-way player early on and his play is a big reason LM is off to an 8-0 start.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2478615"],"_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-676efb4790677"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2478615' first='Filippo' last='Galli'] – 6'6” / 2025 / Hill School / Power Forward: </strong>Galli was one of the biggest stick risers in our updated Class of 2025 rankings and after his 35-point explosion in Hill's win over St. Andrews (RI) we expect that trend to continue. Galli is stretch-4 prospect with a highly accurate three-point shot. That skill set was on full display in the victory over St. Andrew's as Galli connected on 5 of his 6 three-point attempts. Galli's fantastic instincts, smooth finishing skills and underrated foot speed produced several transition buckets too. With his size and polished moves, Galli (13-16 FGAs) also generated points off one or two dribbles. College coaches will love his creative passing skills.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1195829"],"_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-676efb47906c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nolan's reputation as a skilled “3&amp;D” wing was further solidified last week when he drained 6 treys on his way to 28 points as GA upset Friends Central. In that victory, Nolan was especially lethal on corner threes. When he was not hitting triples, Nolan scored in transition and via back door cuts. Nolan also did a respectable job working as a secondary ball handler for stretches. He is committed to Haverford College (D3) and the Squirrels got an absolute steal in Nolan.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
