<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the spring season progresses, several high school basketball players have caught the attention of scouts and enthusiasts alike with their remarkable performances.

His leadership and skills were pivotal in propelling the team to advanced playoffs. Bryd's ability to adapt and thrive in a new environment speaks volumes about his versatility and resilience. As the summer season approaches, Bryd is expected to continue his upward trajectory, showcasing his talent and determination on a larger stage. Playing for the [program_tooltip program_id='2077004' first='Team' last='Takeover'] National Team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2722710"],"_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-68103c9e88fcf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Camari led City College to the 3A State title defeating a talented Sherwood HS team from Montgomery County. Camari was exceptional in his performance. Stewart's prowess on the court, coupled with his strategic playmaking, has made him a key player to watch. His contributions were instrumental in securing the championship, and he has demonstrated an innate ability to rise to the occasion in critical moments. Stewart's upcoming summer performances are highly anticipated, as he continues to build on his impressive record.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2382874"],"_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-68103c9e8904a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Standing at 6 foot 6, [player_tooltip player_id='2382874' first='Mason' last='Ridgeway'] has been an impactful player in the Northern Virginia area. Ridgeway's smooth style of play and versatility as a wing have made him a formidable presence on the court. His ability to influence the game on both ends, combined with his strong physical attributes, positions him as a player with significant breakout potential. Ridgeway is set to showcase his skills in the summer tournaments, where his performances will likely attract further attention.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2571759"],"_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-68103c9e890c1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2571759' first='Elijah' last='Williams'], another 6 foot 6 forward, has impressed at Evergreen Christian in Leesburg, Virginia. Since I watched him in the CBG event in October. Williams' athleticism and skill set have allowed him to make a considerable impact during the season. His ability to navigate the court with finesse and contribute effectively to his team's success highlights his potential for breakout performances. As the spring and summer seasons unfold, Williams is expected to continue making strides and asserting his presence in high-level competitions.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2453744"],"_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-68103c9e89134"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Soumaoro is one we have highlighted before, but I believe he should earn more attention from college programs. He had a strong showing overall this leading Meade to the State Semi-Final defeat to the eventual champion Laurel HS finish the season with a 23-4 record. Soumaoro really gives you a glimpse of what he can provide on several levels. Soumaoro does a great job in using his 6'6 size to his advantage, and he has added muscle to his frame. He can create for himself, breaking down defenders and getting to the basket, or even flourishing again with his shot-making from mid-range or beyond. Soumaoro can be used in several areas of the floor with his overall skillset, size, and frame, which college coaches should find appealing at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Teron Powell","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77245","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Indian Creek (Maryland)","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68103c9e8921c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A sleeper prospect to watch is Teron Powell, Jr., a 6-foot 7 lefty forward. Powell's unique playing style and physical advantages make him a compelling player to follow. His contributions have gone under the radar, but his potential for breakout performances is undeniable. Powell's ability to leverage his height and left-handed play can create mismatches and opportunities on the court. As the summer approaches, Powell is poised to emerge as a significant talent, capturing the attention of scouts and fans alike.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
