<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The High School Spotlight Series is back and we are excited to feature multiple teams throughout the state once again! The season is still a few months away, but it is never too early to look ahead at the high school season. We will be taking a look at some quick hitters, the top player(s), a potential breakout player, other roster members, and more for the upcoming season. For today's spotlight, we take a look at the&nbsp;South Bend Adams Eagles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Quick Hitters</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Went 13-11 last season.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lost to South Bend Riley in Sectionals. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Head Coach Chad Johnston returns for his 9th year as head coach.

Leading the way once again is senior shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1561002' first='Jarvis' last='Tolbert Jr']., a 6'3" scorer who brings back 20.0 points and 4.4 rebounds per game after leading the team last season. Tolbert handles the ball well for his size and plays with a relentless attacking style when driving to the rim. Expect a big senior season from him as he looks to guide the Eagles to new heights.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Breakout Player: [player_tooltip player_id='2129321' first='Drew' last='Dixon']<a href="https://prephoops.com/player/octavius-comer/"></a></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A guard in the 2027 class who is steadily boosting his stock is [player_tooltip player_id='2129321' first='Drew' last='Dixon'], who will be running alongside Tolbert Jr. this season. As a sophomore, Dixon averaged 6.7 points and 1.3 assists per game, but his numbers are expected to take a strong leap as a junior. At 6'1", Dixon is a dynamic guard who can make plays both on and off the ball at a high level. He's one of those shifty, confident guards who can be extremely tough to contain once he finds his rhythm.<a href="https://prephoops.com/player/ronald-mosley/"></a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Key Roster Members</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2397427' first='Dylan' last='Lawwill']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2404021' first='Johnny' last='Anella']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2140340' first='Carter' last='Johnston']</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Terron Johnson</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Samuel Pryor</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
