Cam McClain Cam McClain 6'3" | SG Trinity | 2023 State KY , Trinity – McClain has patiently waited for his turn to be the man for the Rocks and he has made the most of his opportunity so far this season. He’s averaging a career high 20 points per game and doing it super efficiently with shooting splits of 48-44-90. Trinity has played one of the hardest schedules in Kentucky so far and Cam has shown he’s capable of scoring against the best in Kentucky.
Trent Hinkle Trent Hinkle 5'11" | PG Western | 2023 State KY , Western – Trent is the driving force behind the Western team that is loaded with talent and off to one of the best starts in school history. Hinkle is doing a lot of damage from behind the three point line where he’s shooting 52% from deep. Trent is likely a point guard at the next level but has shown he can play both on and off the ball.
Marcus Eaves Marcus Eaves 6'4" | SF North Hopkins | 2023 State KY , Hopkins County Central – Marcus was one of the best performers at the Top 250 Expo in the fall and has been on a tear so far this season, averaging just under 30 points per game. The big guard has exceled at slashing to the bucket but has also been shooting better than 50% from three. He’s one of the best prospects in Western Kentucky.
Micah Engle Micah Engle 6'5" | PG Lynn Camp | 2022 KY , Lynn Camp – Engle has been putting up big scoring numbers for the last few seasons and this year has been no different. At 6’5, Micha has great positional size and has been among the best players in the 13th region the last few seasons. This year he’s averaging 27 points per contest and has been one of the best in the state at getting to the free throw line.
Zack Otis Zack Otis 6'0" | CG Bath County | 2023 State KY , Bath County – Bath County is off to one of their best starts in recent memory and Otis has been the main reason why. Zack has been at his best when he’s getting downhill and attacking the rim but has also been shooting the three ball at a high level. If Otis can keep up his level of play, the Wildcats will be a real force in the 16th region this season.
