VT Flurries: Who’s Storming Out to Strong Starts? Pt. 2/2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>And we're back, showcasing five more guys who have been atop VT's best so far. Don't miss a beat on this slate of talented guard play. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2711459' first='Pascal' last='Munezero'], 5'9 G - Burlington H.S. Class of 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The blur! Pascal's speed and athleticism is unrivaled. Munezero uses that, a lot of hustle, and IQ to hound opponents. He's locked in 84x50, hounding the ballhandler or hunting passing lanes. Moreover, he's proven to be an important rebounder for this guard heavy team. And truth be told, once he has the rock in transition, he's likely to blow by the defense and finish with explosiveness. A physical combo-guard with plenty of 15+ nights so far. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2377234' first='Carson' last='Cody'], 6'3 G - Montpelier H.S. Class of 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A talented perimeter presence, Carson continues to be a handful for opponents. He's a 3-level threat with a short memory, shooting the open shot each time. Yet he knows when to fire against a closeout or up fake, one-dribble pull-up, or distribute. Cody has the skill and aggression to force defenses into scramble mode, and from there, Montpelier will cut defenses up. Disruptive with his length and effort, he turns defense to offense too. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2547032' first='Dallas' last='St. Peter'], 6'0 G - Rice Memorial H.S. Class of 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Last year's 6th man, this year's 3rd option. Dallas has slotted himself as a consistent offensive threat alongside the Eaton twins, giving Rice a significant offensive boost. St. Peter has brought the fire with his aggressive slashing, transition offense, and knockdown shooting from 3. Add in his relentless defensive pressure, hustle to collect 50/50s, and robust impact on winning at large, and he's surely a key component for Rice. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2453004' first='Deng' last='Aguek'], 6'3 G - South Burlington H.S. Class of 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Aguek is a sizable combo-guard who does a bit of everything. Deng's scoring ability rests in his smooth jump shot and athletic finishes at the cup, finding his way to his spots nice change of pace and direction. In turn, he forces defenses to collapse, and with his awareness, he can pick apart the opponent. On the other end, he's a versatile defender with his size and athleticism, able to cover 1-3, block a couple shots and rebound at a high rate. All-around guy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2365945' first='Haidin' last='Chilafoux'], 6'1 G - North Country Union H.S. Class of 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The engine of North Country, [player_tooltip player_id='2365945' first='Haidin' last='Chilafoux']. The crafty southpaw has smooth and yet shifty game, able to break a defender off with his adept handle and get to his spot. He's a 3-level threat that puts beautiful english on the ball when at the rim, and yet, can jab and step into a 3 just as crisply. The main organizer of the O, Haidin reads defenses well and facilitates the show yet knows when he needs to put a jolt in the offense. One of D2s best. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
