<p>The grassroots season is officially underway and we hit the ground running on the Prep Hoops Circuit with "The Stage" at The Farmers Bank Fieldhouse in Lebanon. Three rounds of games were played on Friday night to kickstart the weekend before a full Saturday and Sunday of action. We had a team full of our best scouts from throughout the Midwest in the gym on Friday night to help provide the best coverage possible and that will continue to be the standard throughout the weekend. To begin a packed weekend of coverage here are six of the top performers from Friday evening.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Ranked as the #10 prospect in the Prep Hoops Indiana Class of 2028 Prospect Rankings, it is no surprise that Bowling III had a big start to his spring. Fresh off of averaging 9.2 points and 3.6 rebounds per game as a freshman at Anderson, the 6'4" wing showcased his elite ability to get to the rim off of the dribble and finish up above the defense. His length, athleticism, and comfortably with the ball in his hands make him a very difficult matchup.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The size and physicality of this prospect from Bullitt Central High School in Kentucky stands out right away. The 6'4" forward was a big part of the Shelby Stars 15u squad pulling out a hard fought 73-72 victory over a good Indiana's Finest 15u team. Eubanks has a bright future with his two-way versatility.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">One of the top freshman guards in Ohio, this left-handed playmaker really impressed with his play on Friday in a 65-59 win over Nova Village 15u over a very talented [program_tooltip program_id='2076924' first='EG10' last=''] 15u squad. The 6'1" point guard scored 17 points to lead his team to victory. He has great quick-twitch decision-making skills with the ball in his hands for a young guard.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Anytime you see a legitimate 6'10" prospect at the 15u level you are going to pay attention. Jansons was just tall though. This prospect from Oswego displayed good hands and feet, especially for a young prospect at his size. There is a ton of upside to work with here with Jansons.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">It was a tough game for [program_tooltip program_id='2075622' first='M14' last='Hoops'] 15u Gold as they ran into a bit of a buzzsaw against The Academy by O3 15u. However, despite losing 68-43, Otten stood out scoring 23 points. The 6'2" wing did a little bit of everything offensively showing off fluid athleticism, strong ball handling ability, and some perimeter shot-making as well.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The Southern Illinois Raptors 16u team knocked off The Dream Basketball 16u 63-45 in a late-night tip-off at The Stage. Schrage had an excellent stretch in the second half that included a pick-and-pop three-point shot and a couple of interior finishes where he utilized his size and strength. He has a very versatile skill set that stood out on Friday evening.</p>
