wonderfully scored and sprinted out in transition through the first quarter. Kaleb’s teardrop ended a 11-0 Buccaneer run. It was capped off by a free throw. Williams and his entire team truthfully struggled with the physicality of the Buccaneers all night.

asserted himself offensively, scoring a beautiful jumper and then a buzzer-beating three-pointer to conclude a brutal opening quarter Wednesday. Asa is a Top 20 player in the 2027 class. So elegant with ideal guard height. Asa finished with 23 points.

twice on jumpshots through the game’s first 14 minutes. Hardaway continued his tremendous defensive play in the third quarter, blocking multiple layup lofters. Caleb scored 6 points in the third quarter.
Highlights
2/26/25: After the game’s opening score, a wing three-pointer from Zack, his shooting fell off precipitously. Still, Niven provided the rim protection that enabled him to set the school’s block record. A strong shooter, Niven missed several and, certainly the most heart-wrenching miss of his young career, a wing three-pointer to send the game to overtime as the horn sounded.
Highlights
2/26/25: Finished with 19 points.
