Updated 2023 Rankings: New Faces (Part 1)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With the new update of our senior class rankings, we take a look at part one of some of the new additions to the rankings and why we chose to recognize them.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#56) Chris Fields | 6'7” PF | Petersburg</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1423675,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Fields-Chris.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Fields-Chris-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1423675"/></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fields had a breakout junior season at Petersburg helping them to the state championship game and being named an All State performer in the process. The 6'7” forward has a unique game that makes him very hard to guard as he can score it from the perimeter off the catch, he's excellent in the midrange as he can put it on the deck and create space to make shots and he's strong and athletic enough to banging the post and score in the paint too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#74) [player_tooltip player_id='1049866' first='Jovani' last='Galarza'] | 6'2” SG | Fairfax Christian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Galarza comes to an already talented Fairfax Christian team from Mt. Zion and he is a great addition as they need a guard who can score it in different ways. The 6'2” guard has a knack for the ball and moves well off the ball to get open for easy looks, he can knock down shots from deep and in the midrange and he plays with a good motor and knows how to score the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#98) [player_tooltip player_id='1423209' first='Warren' last='Gorman'] | 6'6” PF | Bishop Ireton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gorman comes to Ireton after a big junior season at Huntingtown and he's a long forward who impacts the game in winning ways on both ends of the floor. The 6'6” forward plays with a great motor and has great timing as a shot blocker and rebounder, he plays with great effort on both ends of the floor and he's always around the ball and in the paint to make plays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#100) Brendan Robinson | 6'0” PG | Paul VI</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Robinson is a two sport star who also stands out on the football field, and with the super talented roster PVI has he is the perfect type of guard to bring off the bench to bring intensity and do the little things. He's a strong and athletic guard who guards the basketball well and forces turnovers, he handles the ball and best them into sets to make plays and he makes all the hustle plays for his team too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#123) [player_tooltip player_id='1483032' first='Andy' last='Ramirez'] | 6'3” SF | Hayfield</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1465466,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Ramirez-Andy-Head-Shot.png"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/05/Ramirez-Andy-Head-Shot-1024x679.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1465466"/></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ramirez is a great piece for a Hayfield team that returns a lot of players from their undefeated and state championship season, and guys like Ramirez will have a much bigger role for his team. He's an all-out style of guard who brings it on both ends of the floor, he rebounds very well for his position on both ends of the floor and he works well off the ball to get open and get easy opportunities.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
