He's long and athletic and has shown he can shoot the ball well from range. One of the top rim protectors in the state, Tawshawn is the type of Senior who goes to the junior college level out of high school and emerges as a top Juco player in America a year or two later.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1901828"],"_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-694ee449015d6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Zach battled injuries for most of 2025 but seems to be healthy and rolling now. Averaging 22 points and 6 rebounds, Hutchinson is shooting 56% overall and 36% from three. He looks like he's back to being the D2/NAIA prospect he was as a Sophomore.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543312"],"_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-694ee44901627"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Keene has been a known name in the mountains for a few years now. In his Senior season for Pikeville, Jackson is shooting 50% from deep and has helped Pikeville solidify themselves as a real threat in the 15th region this season. Keene himself is looking like a scholarship level prospect right now.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1543597"],"_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-694ee44901672"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The reigning state champs have been playing well this season and Cooper and Sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='2454749' first='Brady' last='Orem'] have been steering the ship so far for the Warhawks. T2 has been averaging 17 points per game after waiting for his opportunity the last few years. If he continues with that sort of production, in school states need to take notice.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2421429"],"_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-694ee449016bb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A big guard with some obvious upside, Mitchell is having a break out season for Murray. Scoring 18 per game for a Murray team that is 7-2 thus far, Maddox is knocking down over 42% from behind the three point line. Standing 6'7", Mitchell is very intriguing thanks to his size and ability to switch on the defensive end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

We are about 1/3 of the way through the KHSAA season and most teams have played 10 games or more at this point. With the season moving along quickly, here's a look at some Seniors who have boosted their stock early this year.
