Our final notes from the ECI Team Camp features players from various classes as well as a quick review of which teams took home championships in each bracket. ECI Champions: The Greenfield School competed at a high level, going undefeated throughout the event. They feature some legit college prospects and have a nice mixture of older and younger talent. Bracket Champ: New Life Christian got off to a slower start in the first two days of the event but got better during the final days and hit their stride during the playoffs. They don’t have much height but they compete hard and really excel when they move the ball. Bracket Champ: Richmond County HS is a young team with just about all of their contributors being Sophomores and Juniors. At moments their youth showed but overall they competed at a high level. East Chapel Hill Junior Wing [player_tooltip player_id="1128898" first="Marquez" last="Cotton"]: Provided a high amount of energy for his team, crashing the boards on both ends and attacking the paint to score. He’s a strong player with nice athletic ability and understands how to use his physical tools to his benefit . Swansboro HS Sophomore Ben Sherman: One attribute that stands out almost immediately is the intensity he plays with, working hard on both ends of the floor consistently. He fights for rebounds, loose balls, attempts to defends multiple positions and creates his own offense with offensive rebounds and put-back buckets. Wallace-Rose Hill Junior Guard [player_tooltip player_id="854900" first="Jalen" last="James"]: Coming into this event we got the chance to see him score the ball at a high level with his grassroots team. However on this occasion he took more of a facilitator role and focused more on stepping up and being one of the better defenders on the team. Kinston HS Senior Wing [player_tooltip player_id="577842" first="Jeremy" last="Dixon"]: A legit D1 prospect talent wise, he’s getting his first taste of being the featured player on his high school squad. He’s still adjusting to his new role but his skillset and size are definitely attributes that D1 colleges love. Cox Mill HS Junior Wing Titus Ivy: Definitely a prospect to keep an eye on over the next two years, we saw some flashes of what he can potentially be and it looks like he’s bounced back from a serious injury very well. A strong player with solid height at 6’4 that displayed a nice midrange game, he’s a prospect that catches your attention early on . First Flight HS Freshman Guard [player_tooltip player_id="1220133" first="Mason" last="Dobie"]: Has a chance to be a special prospect overall and will be in the mix to break some school records during his high school career. His perimeter shooting ability is impressive but he also is already showing the ability to score from midrange and inside the paint.
