<p>Washington is going to be really, really young, and it may sound weird to say since he's just a sophomore, but Rahe is something of a veteran presence and leader for this group already. A heady 6-1 guard who sees the floor really well and is a creative, talented passer, Rahe dished out 3 assists with 8 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, and a block, showing his ability to stuff the stat sheet on both ends. </p>

<p>Swayzer, a City High transfer, came off the bench to score 9 points with 2 rebounds, 2 assists, and a steal in the Trojans' win over Clear Creek Amana. He's a confident shooter with a quick release off the catch, and he does a nice job getting into his shot off the dribble quickly as well. He was just 1-6 from behind the arc in the win, but a few of those misses rimmed in-and-out, and if a few of those dropped, he would've had a really nice debut for West.</p>

<p>A sharpshooting guard with a lightning-quick release, Joens is capable of getting scorching hot from 3-point range, as he showed in the Hawks' season-opening win over Pleasant Valley. He went 4-7 from 3-point range en route to 12 points and 3 assists. He's a confident shooter who moves really well without the ball in his hands, and he looked more comfortable as a playmaker as well, an added bonus.</p>

<p>Alexander didn't score against PV, but he showcased a bit of what he may be able to do as a playmaking wing for the Hawks this season. He has really good size and length on the wing at 6-3/6-4, allowing him to see over his defender. He handles it well for a young wing with his size and length, plays with pace, and has good vision. He'll be an important piece for Prairie this season and for the next three years.</p>
