Picking up an offer from Toledo. Kent State, Evansville, Austin Peay, and division 2 Malone contacted the northwest Ohio guard. Creager was a key piece on a Patrick Henry team who made a deep run in OHSAA division 6 loosing in the regional semi-final at BGSU in March. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2288381"],"_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-68534fa6154ae"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Evans who thrives using his big frame to bully others around and does a nice job picking and choosing his spots to score from fielded interest from several division one programs. Purdue, Ohio State, Dayton, VCU, UAB, Richmond, Miami (OH), &amp; Marshall contacted him. While Toledo and Cleveland State extended him offers. Evans will be one of the best prospects in central Ohio and should have a big junior campaign. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140168"],"_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-68534fa6154f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mirgon is a gritty point guard who excels at scoring the basketball in a plethora of different ways. He has no issues finding teammates for scoring chances of their own. He heard from Liberty, South Carolina, Miami (OH), Brown, Evansville, Furman, Marshall, WKU, Kent State,&amp; Dartmouth, Toledo extended an offer to Mirgon on Monday. I would assume he will be one of the priority in-state point guard recruits in 2027 and many Ohio colleges will try to keep this prospect in state for college. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2347406"],"_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-68534fa615535"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Simpson is a plug and play guard who does a great job stuffing the stat sheet and doing whatever is needed to help win basketball games. He was contacted by Miami (OH) &amp; Liberty. Simpson is on pace to see a bigger role on an always competitive Lima Senior squad. I think he is a prospect who low major coaches should make a priority in the 2027 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2144204"],"_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-68534fa615572"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Ursuline guards phone was blowing up on Sunday fielding inquiries from schools at the mid and high major level. Kent State, Ohio St, Akron Creighton, Miami (OH), VA Tech, Liberty, UAB, YSU, CCU, Furman, Richmond, Notre Dame all contacted the slippery guard from outskirts of Northeast Ohio. Should see a ton more traction from coaches who get out and see him during the summer evaluation periods. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2800799"],"_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-68534fa6155af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Goran who can play on or off the basketball is a natural scorer with a high level feel for the game and great instincts. Kent State, William &amp; Mary, American, Lafayette, Mercyhurst and division two Malone contacted the rising junior. Do not let the remoteness of Goran's school fool you, the kid can flat out play and believe he should be a priority for high academic division ones in the Ivy and Patriot league. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125750"],"_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-68534fa6155ea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stokes is a quick ankle biting guard who effective getting paint touches on the attack. The electric guard was contacted by in state division two Malone. He is a constant pest on the defensive end and finds ways to get steals. Another year under his belt and past experiences at the varsity level should help his Maumee Valley squad be a team who can be a contender in their league this upcoming year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2125748"],"_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-68534fa615624"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The athletic scoring guard has had a productive spring with [program_tooltip program_id='2260998' first='Phenom' last='United 3SSB']. Tyson has had a busy week picking up offers from Penn State and Toledo. He was contacted by Ohio State, Virginia Tech, Butler, Cincinnati &amp; Miami (OH). Tyson is a prospect who is on the verge of becoming a national prospect and will be on the radars of mid and high majors programs across the country. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

These are a few guard in the class of 2027 who had the opportunity to have college coaches reach out to them as the Junior contact period started on June 15th.
