Gibson Southern Titans Open Gym Notebook:

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>The 2025-2026 season is looking to be the most anticipated seasons in a long time for the Gibson Southern Titans. Football is king in Titan Country, but with Coach Mark Rohrer entering his fifth year at the helm coming off an eighteen win season last year, and losing four of his top five scorers to graduation, he will look to a balanced returning core with sights set on winning the programs first sectional title since 2022-2023.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>KEY</strong> <strong>RETURNERS:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2140411"],"_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-68ddbf88044ce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the premier talents in Southwest Indiana, [player_tooltip player_id='2140411' first='Kolton' last='Schmitt'] is a 6'6” wing that is a strong consideration for being the best shooter around. Smooth stroke with a high release and in the gym range. He's becoming more versatile in his scoring being able to post up mismatches as well as getting better off the bounce. Will be a tough cover night in and night out and has a chance to win conference player of the year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2978386"],"_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-68ddbf880455f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As steady of a point guard as there is in the area. [player_tooltip player_id='2978386' first='Cam' last='Truxal'] is the best passer around and overall he is poised for another breakout season. Has the ability to make any pass on the floor. He's a really good pace setter that plays with his eyes up. I look for his scoring production to go up as a senior as he has the ability to finish around the basket in a variety of different ways, and as a shooter, he's a guy that you can't leave open or he will make you pay.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2891750"],"_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-68ddec0a663c1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Steady versatile wing that gets better and better each time I see him. He scores it in a variety of different ways from all over the floor. Deep range on his three-point shot that he shoots with an effortless quick trigger. Explosive first step with some shiftiness in his handle lets him get to his spot where he can score at the basket or in the midrange over defenders. </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":"Noah Kuester","_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":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Gibson Southern","_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-68ddbf880463b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Football player that wasn't able to be at open gym, but returning wing that is a versatile defender and could potentially be the most athletic player in the conference, according to Coach Rohrer.
