<p>Elijah Christenson at Rogers. There is a lot about Elijah that early one, looks like what a lot of face up skilled forward prospects are becoming these days. He is a skilled face-up player with agility and some range, Elijah showed he can put it down, move it, and score while at the Showcase. A 6'5/6'6 wing that also plays quarterback in football. A Freshman Showcase first teamer.</p>

<p>Justus Dayee at Tartan. The 6'5 Titan scored in double figures at Simley last year and physically he's growing in a way that could lead to Daye being a scholarship type potential player. Daye is now at Tartan where he is going to have time to learn, but also get educated by one of the best defensive coaches in the state. A player with a higher ceiling than we first thought. A Freshman Showcase first teamer.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2393884' first='Dexter' last='Simmons'] of Stewartville. I would say the name [player_tooltip player_id='2393884' first='Dexter' last='Simmons'] has popped up on my radar more than just about any player in this class lately. Growing rapidly with good length and really good footwork on both ends, plus a skilled touch that is good back to the basket but also showing some face up ability as well. Last listed on a roster at 6'6. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2391153' first='Tolu' last='Taiwo'] of Stillwater. This is one strong young player that dominated the Showcase leverage wise. He's about a 6'2/6'3 frontcourt player that is very, very productive. We will have to see how he grows but for now his work ethic and toughness gets rewarded as a player to really keep an eye on. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2456461' first='Timmy' last='Thomas'] of Maranatha Christian Academy. Thomas was rapid blur at the Showcase flying up the floor and attacking every angle. He also got after ball pressure wise which has me thinking that he will fit with Al Harris very nice at MCA.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2905843' first='Cody' last='Woitel-Anschutz'] of Breck. Cody is a 6'3 shooting guard/wing that has a touch, has some pop, has some strength and quickly earned his spot on the radar as a potential prospect. How he grows is going to go a long way to what he becomes prospect wise but with Breck needing to replace a lot of spots, if they look to their youth this year Cody could be one of those players. </p>
