Great Western Classic Overview

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Players</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1056969' first='Brody' last='Kozlowski'] led the pack of notable players playing in the GWC. You had players form every classification in attendance that have high level of play. Isaac Davis and Liam Campbell as well as Julian Bowie are some of the top players that came over from Idaho and you even had a top player form Cherry Creek High School, Colorado make a splash as well in [player_tooltip player_id='1510473' first='Jeremiah' last='Hammond']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Transfer Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were a lot of players on the move and this was a great platform to watch them all play. [player_tooltip player_id='1190621' first='Noah' last='Bendinger'] was the latest big name to make a move as he is now running with Corner Canyon and he makes a big impact giving the Chargers more shooting which is what allows them to compete against national competition. Then you had [player_tooltip player_id='1115954' first='Reece' last='Dent'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1057025' first='Diego' last='Mulford'] over at American Fork as they look like a championship contender once again. Springville is set to get a new out of state transfer and although Wasatch Academy wasn't playing they will be getting some new top names including a top talent out of Las Vegas, NV. Judge Memorial has a few new dudes and Juan Diego looks unrecognizable. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>4A</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This early it is tough to say who might be the front runner with so much movement and new classifications but Dixie and Cottonwood look really good early. Can't forget Ridgeline either as [player_tooltip player_id='1235094' first='Jagger' last='Francom'] when he is engaged and playing with a high motor he is a player that could cause havoc. [player_tooltip player_id='1384525' first='Chris' last='Cox'] is a good and he can guard 1-5 legit! [player_tooltip player_id='1185179' first='Kyle' last='Lemke'] is the best big in 4A and one of the best on the state for sure. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Spreading the Floor</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Teams are spreading the floor more than ever now with everyone shooting the ball better from positions 1-5. Coaches are putting in offenses that allow players to play out in the perimeter and not just in the post. Corner Canyon has sprinkled shooters everywhere with [player_tooltip player_id='1392874' first='Tate' last='Boman'], [player_tooltip player_id='1056969' first='Brody' last='Kozlowski'], [player_tooltip player_id='1190621' first='Noah' last='Bendinger'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1877115' first='Taylor' last='Feroah']. [player_tooltip player_id='1278449' first='Mason' last='Hansen'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1391453' first='Luke' last='Nadauld'] look like they can make a difference outside. [player_tooltip player_id='1115983' first='Bryson' last='Bromley'], [player_tooltip player_id='1164729' first='Easton' last='Hawkins'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1057037' first='Cooper' last='Lewis'] can shoot the rock. Snow Canyon had a spread set that allowed players to work and shoot the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Great Playing Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1057047' first='Carter' last='Doleac'] was a beast and he was just playing hard and with a high motor. The damage he was causing was just a few feet away from the rim. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1185170' first='Hunter' last='Jackson'] showed how much he can do out on the floor for Woods Cross.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1231453' first='Carson' last='Smith'] is emerging. If he gets aggressive it can benefit everyone on that team including himself. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1057035' first='Ace' last='Reiser'] could be a take over the game type of a talent this coming season and his team will feed him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1384536' first='Owen' last='Mackay'] is a dude! That kid can ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1439711' first='Bryce' last='Mella'] looked great as he is just a kid that looks like he is giving effort and having fun.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1168376' first='Grayson' last='Brousseau'] was one of the most fun players to watch play, that kid competes and gets things done. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
