Well on Tuesday night, Golek showed everyone that his upside is limitless. During Garnet's District 1-6A opening round win over Bensalem this stretch-4 prospect exploded for 31 points. Golek drained 3 triples and scored on the interior via dives to the cup as well as quick post ups. This 2027 prospect also attacked the offensive glass for second chance buckets. Plus, Golek executed a couple smooth dribble drives from the mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1874203"],"_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-67b6606d7a903"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kelly (23 ppg.; 1,400+ point scorer) is one of the most athletic and bounciest prospects in the region. He is committed to Ohio University for hoops, but at Chambersburg he also played football and is a two-time state champion in the triple jump. On Tuesday night, Kelly's agility, hops and scoring skills were on full display as he posted 26 points in win over Carlisle. Kelly did all his scoring inside the arc. He repeatedly got out on the fast break for lay-ups or dunks. In the half-court Kelly's quick first step and elusive handles got him into the lane for runners and finishes at the rim. Additionally, Kelly pounded the offensive boards for put backs.     </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2400237"],"_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-67b6606d7a96a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"> Pereira is a big fella with a polished interior skill set who would be a No. 1 option on most other teams in SEPA. He proved that again last night when Pereira posted a double double 23 points and 13 rebounds as he helped “P-Dub” defeated Neshaminy in the District 1-6A tourney. Pereira also recorded 5 blocks at the defensive end. He was an efficient scorer who produce points via quick post ups, dives to the rack, the offensive boards and in pick-n-roll action. Pereira flashed a smooth face up game too. His ability to run the floor for secondary break opportunities proved to be underrated.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1466599"],"_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-67b6606d7a9cc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The last few weeks have been epic for Smucker (22 ppg.). First, he became the all-time leading scorer in L-S history with 1,333 career points (and counting). Next Smucker committed to Bloomsburg University (D2). Then Smucker posted 26 points (4 treys), including the game winning 3-ball at the buzzer as L-S picked up a key victory over Lower Dauphin. Finally, on Tuesday night Smucker dropped a 50-burger during Lampeter's District 3-5A 1<sup>st</sup> Round playoff win over Northern York. During this scoring explosion (school record) Smucker got buckets at every level. He popped 8 triples as well as numerous mid-range jumpers. At one point Smucker drained 7 straight three-point attempts. Smucker also excelled in the open court as well as off the dribble in the half-court. His ability to change directions on a dime was impressive.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
