He had 22 points (9-12 FG) and 13 rebounds in the win.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2569202' first='Elijah' last='Poniewaz'] (Chaminade – 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Poniewaz was a key part of the second half comeback for Chaminade.&nbsp; Strong and stocky left handed combo guard passed it better than we had previously seen in the drive and kick along with finding teammates in transition.&nbsp; Bit of a streaky shooter, but when he is on can get it rolling hitting a couple of big ones from deep.&nbsp; Uses his strength and acrobatic finishing ability to convert in the lane notching 12 points (4-13 FG) and 4 assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Vance Weber (Chaminade – 2029)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Weber is a 2029 wing that is actually from Highland, but is playing his high school ball at Chaminade.&nbsp; He got a big cheer when he checked in to the game.&nbsp; Wing with good size and strength already.&nbsp; Got a layup on a cut, grabbed a rebound, and had a dime in a few minutes of action.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2607456' first='Titus' last='Moore'] ([player_tooltip player_id='2873530' first='Logan' last=''] Rogersville – 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore is a big bodied four man who brings skill to the table.&nbsp; Carves out space inside for scores and was effective in the pick/roll as a finisher.&nbsp; Showed he could space the floor with his shooting banging in 3-5 from distance including a sweet pick/pop deep ball.&nbsp; The highly ranked sophomore had 13 points (5-11 FG), 5 rebounds, and 3 assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2569194' first='Bryce' last='Millien'] (Webster Groves – 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Millien is an athletic two guard that shot it pretty well from distance.&nbsp; That along with his athleticism and defensive potential make him someone to watch as he dropped 11 points (3-6 3PT), 2 assists, and 2 steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
