Kale Gaither Kale Gaither 5'10" | PG Madisonville-North Hopkins | 2022 State KY , Madisonville – Kale has had a non-traditional high school career but is hopefully saving his best for last as he’s going to be relied on to score the ball for the two time defending 2nd region champs who are going to have to replace a lot.
Zavian Jackson Zavian Jackson 6'5" | SF Jeffersontown | 2021 State KY , Gage Mabry Gage Mabry 6'2" | SG Evangel Christian | 2022 State KY and Turrell Cleaves Turrell Cleaves 6'4" | SG Jeffersontown | 2022 State KY , Jeffersontown – Jeffersontown always brings in several new faces and this offseason was no different. The X factor is Jackson. Despite modest averages last season, he was a standout at the Bluegrass Fall League and provides the Chargers with some good size and athleticism.
Blake Robinson Blake Robinson 6'2" | SF Holy Cross Covington Ku | 2021 State KY , Covington Holy Cross – Brandon Grammer looks to make a push to get to the regional tournament this season and Robinson’s shooting should help. One of the better players at Grant County last season, Blake will be a starter for a solid 9th region contender.
Mitchell Rylee Mitchell Rylee 6'8" | C Covington Catholic | 2022 State KY , Covington Catholic – After Skyler Schmidt was ruled ineligible and went back to Cincinnati, Rylee’s potential impact becomes even greater. He made a name for himself in the fall league and will have a chance to start for the 9th region favorites.
Bryce Riley Bryce Riley 6'5" | SF Bardstown | 2022 State KY and Andrew Mason Andrew Mason 6'4" | SF Bardstown | 2022 State KY , Bardstown – Bardstown brings in the leading scorers from their two biggest rivals and immediately became big time contenders in the 5th again after it was looking like 2021 could be a down year.
Aden Slone Aden Slone 5'9" | PG George Rogers Clark | 2022 State KY , George Rogers Clark – The floor general makes the move from Danville and will have an immediate impact for a team that could really use another playmaker. Slone can also play off the ball more than he did last season and become an outside shooting threat.
Robby Todd Robby Todd 6'7" | PF Madison Central | 2022 State KY , Rowan County – The 16th region typically is light on size and Todd will bring that and solid athleticism to the Vikings. A prospect with a high ceiling, I’m excited to see Robby get to play through his mistakes after having a short leash the last few seasons at Dunbar.
Kenyon Goodin Kenyon Goodin 6'3" | CG Collins | 2023 State KY , Collins – A two sport star who is having a huge football season, Kenyon will have a big role to fill for a reloading Titans team that will look to replace 2 D1 signees from last season. Goodin should get plenty of shots and a long leash to play through any mistakes.
Micah Engle Micah Engle 6'5" | SF Lynn Camp | 2023 State KY and Gavin Allen Gavin Allen 6'10" | C Lynn Camp | 2022 State KY , Corbin – Allen is big and Engle is a good scorer. Getting both of them from Corbin was a coup for tiny Lynn Camp. Both are going to have a chance to prove they’re top talents in the region and Allen in particular is going to have a chance to show he’s more than just a big body.
