<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's time to look at central Kentucky, which includes schools in Lexington and the surrounding area. This list features Berea, Model, Frankfort, Frankfort Christian, Sayre, and Lexington Christian. As with every list, transfers have shifted the landscape, with some players coming in and others leaving. Still, there's no shortage of small-school talent to highlight.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2885752"],"_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-68c21060156d0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2885752' first='Dawson' last='Farmer'] is a tough, versatile forward who impacts both ends of the floor. He plays with a relentless motor, defending multiple spots, cleaning the glass, and turning stops into transition buckets. Offensively, he attacks the rim with athleticism, has a reliable mid-range game, and continues to grow as a perimeter shooter. Last season at Corbin, he averaged 9.3 points and 6.2 rebounds, showing consistency as a two-way contributor. His blend of size, toughness, and expanding skill set makes him a strong long-term piece with clear college potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2175423"],"_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-68c2106015746"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2175423' first='Riley' last='Mollette'] enters his senior season already surpassing 1,000 career points and 700 rebounds, proving his consistency and production over time. He's coming off a strong AAU summer and brings the ability to score in bunches while nearly averaging a double-double last year with 14.9 points and 9.3 rebounds per game. Mollette uses his size effectively on both ends, controlling the glass and creating mismatches offensively. He can step out and hit shots from the perimeter, giving him a versatile scoring arsenal that translates well at the next level. Mount St. Joseph has already extended an offer, and he remains a prospect to keep tabs on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2400700"],"_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-68c210601579c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2400700' first='Caleb' last='Marshall'] made an immediate impact as a freshman, averaging 10.8 points while hitting 61 threes at 41.5% and shooting 91% from the line.

Marshall also shows good vision when defenses collapse, making him more than just a scorer.

He can score in a variety of ways, whether off the dribble, spotting up, or attacking the rim, and already showed that ability last season as an eighth grader, averaging eight points per game and hitting 36 threes at a 36 percent clip. He looks confident shooting with a hand in his face, gets into his motion quickly.

Finley moves well with and without the ball, consistently creating opportunities to score and showing the skill set of a dynamic offensive player.
