<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/22/25:</strong> Axton's dad shared Perry's Midseason Highlights on Twitter Tuesday. Thanks to the eyes of Courtney Smith, PrepHoopsTN was out in front on Axton and actually moved him up about 40 spots in the fall after seeing the improvements Axton made. The highlights tell the tale. Axton is no longer a springy, potential tweener. Thanks to his development as a dribbler Axton is now clearly a future college wing. Perry still needs to improve his three-point shooting, but the exciting leap by Perry suggests he might climb among the rankings again.</p>

<p>In the film, Axton employs a devastating drop-step going full speed. He can break off a 360-move that few high school players can defend. Perry is long-limbed. Shows nice timing as a shot-blocker.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/22/25:</strong> Cade is progressing so smoothly this season. Beyond his wonderful shooting touch and touch around the rim, Cade is now showing off a stronger lower body. This is critical for his development, and high school defenders will constantly work to uproot the big man. Because he strengthened his base he can now back down with authority more effectively. Bennerman dunked frequently against John Paul II, one of the best teams in the state.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/22/25:</strong> Few players in Tennessee score as effectively as [player_tooltip player_id='2291122' first='Dylan' last='Jones']. Forget the sophomore class, Dylan can give buckets with the best of Tennessee. The film shows what we already knew to be the case...Dylan can go. An agile 6-foot-5 guard Dylan plays hoop like a young Paul George. Crafty, range. Above average athleticism. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/22/25:</strong> Senior T.J. Ruffin gets from 0-60 quite well. The slender combo guard shows in his midseason highlights an ability to create for himself. Ruffin can hit the outside ball a bit. Beech is enjoying a wonderful season thanks to the emergence of sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='2439013' first='Cutter' last='Sisk'] and Ruffin's capacity to score consistently. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/22/25:</strong> Cooper just landed in another article featuring the Top 5 Seniors in Hendersonville. The northeast suburb of Nashville features a surprisingly strong quartet of basketball teams and Cooper ranks highly. Jordan's film is brief but shows him knocking down four three-pointers in a victory at Mt. Juliet.</p>
