All Maryland Team (Western, MD, Eastern & Western Shore)
We have formed 2 All Star teams to date for The Maryland / DC areas. The 1st was the Baltimore All Metro consisting of 3 teams. The second was the DMV 495 I-495/55 teams consisting of 5 teams. Both teams were from the Washington, DC DMV and the Baltimore DMV. Other areas of Maryland not located in the Washington or Baltimore areas were not included. Therefore our All Maryland non DMV Team will include areas such as Western, Maryland, Hagerstown, Frederick and the Eastern Shore.
Player of the Year: Elijah Clarance, 6’4″, WG, St. Maria Goretti HS, Hagerstown, MD, 2017.
Elijah could very well get our nod for the most underrated player in Maryland/ DC this past season. He is tremendous all around player who posses some elite skills. Elijah has committed to Illinois State of the Missouri Valley Conference and we believe he will be an impact player as a freshmen. He has an excellent step back jump shot which won several games at the buzzer for Goretti who finished the season at 26-9. Goretti plays in the very tough Baltimore Catholic League, which comparable to Washington, DC’s WCAC nominate by many experts such as Paul Biancardi as the best high school basketball conference in the nation. Elijah is very explosive and we have seen him many times get to the rim off the dribble and throw down a monster dunk. With his wingspan and toughness .Elijah is an an excellent defender.

Keve Aluma led Stephen Decatur of the Eastern Shore to the Maryland State 4A semifinals against an excellent Poly Engineer team who won the 4A.

He can rebound, score in the paint or hit the perimeter shot and averaged 18ppg and 12 rpg this past season for the Seawhawks who finished the season @ 25 -2. We think Keve will have a great career at Wofford.
