<p>Mike was on fire throughout the showcase, following up on a strong performance the previous week at the East Coast Nationals. He went 7-8 from behind the Arc. He is building strong momentum heading into the season ahead.</p>

<p>Avery Cloud Jr- 2021-G- Harrisburg High School</p>
<p>Avery is a quiet assassin. He went 7-12 from beyond the arc during the showcase. He was also very efficient moving throughout the defenses that he was presented with. He plays under control and can defend well. Harrisburg High will have a nice piece to help them contend in the mid-penn conference. </p>

<p>Tristen Waters- 2023- G- Bishop McDevitt High School</p>
<p>Has great potential. The 6’1 versatile guard can compete at both guard positions and with quicker small forwards. He has a nice mid-range jump shot, as well as the ability to get to and above the rim. He and Bishop McDeVitt’s other top recruit Kenyon Elliott should make some noise this year. </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Jacobi Williamson- 2021-G- Central Dauphin East High School</p>
<p>Jacobi is an aggressive guard who was constantly looking to attack his defenders throughout the showcase. He can finish in different ways around the rim, whether it was getting to the foul line or on either side of the rim. Jacobi finished the showcase with 35 points </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Shawn Lewis- 2021-PG- CD East High School </p>
<p>Shawn is a special floor general who can defend and knock down shots from behind the arc. His 5’9 frame should not take away from his physical strength and heart. He led all guards with 18 combined assist. </p>
