<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Our 2026 rankings update had a handful of stock risers and none more so than the wing position, in this article we'll break down four players who increased their stock with strong junior season performances.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1950584"],"_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-67b749be6a9f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lima Shawnee had some signature victories this season with wins over rival Lima Sr and Bishop Hartley, another Division III powerhouse. In those wins, Bertke has been at his best as the wing is one of the most productive high school players in northwest Ohio. Bertke plays with a high motor and has a knack for scoring in the paint as a cutter, offensive rebounder and driver. I've also been impressed with his expanded offensive scoring ability this season. I expect scholarship programs to be all over Bertke this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2458387"],"_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-67b749be6aaa2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the more versatile wings in Ohio's 2026 class, Jones can defend a variety of positions with his size, frame and quick feet. Offensively, Jones has progressed throughout the season on varsity and taken steps as a live dribble passer. If Jones can start to knock down 3-point shots off the catch he will be even tougher to guard as Saint Ignatius looks to go back-to-back this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2288382"],"_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-67b749be6ab23"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A multi-sport stud, Prince holds a pair of Division I football offers and is also a talented player on the hardwood. The wing can get hot in a hurry from downtown and is athletic enough to finish at the rim and blow by the primary defender from a standstill. Prince had big games at Flyin To The Hoop and over rival Archbishop Hoban this season, the Irish have the pieces to make a deep tournament run after a tough regular season schedule prepared them for the march push. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2461888"],"_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-67b749be6ab9f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The second of the Saint Ignatius 2026 wing duo to be featured in this article, Mack has been a reliable shot-maker from the outside for the Wildcats. His highlight of the season might've been a monster slam dunk he had on the road at Saint Edward, the Wildcats biggest rival. With both Jones and Mack adjusting to varsity, they've seen improvement as the year has progressed and will be key factors in the Wildcats playoff push.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
