Among the other prospects you will want to watch in this game are Penn Charter's [player_tooltip player_id='2450669' first='Carter' last='Smith'] (2028) and AR's [player_tooltip player_id='2028256' first='Brandon' last='Russell'] (2025). <em>Tip-off is at 6:00PM</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tues., December 5^th…SCH Academy at Academy of New Church:</strong> The backcourt trio of combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1200762' first='Camden' last='Burns'], shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='1888864' first='Owen' last='Kelly'] and point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1865290' first='Keni'' last='Williams'] spearheads a SCHA team that will be an Inter-Ac title contender this season. Athletic wing [player_tooltip player_id='2237263' first='Kameron' last='Waters'] will provide additional production. ANC is led by three level scorer [player_tooltip player_id='2229148' first='Bahsil' last='Laster'] (a couple DI offers). Running with Laster are talented forwards [player_tooltip player_id='2056714' first='Ryan' last='Warren'], [player_tooltip player_id='2047739' first='Caleb' last='Alston-Nelson'], and [player_tooltip player_id='1865294' first='Cameron' last='Smith']. [player_tooltip player_id='1608494' first='Dior' last='Carter'], Tobe Nwobu and [player_tooltip player_id='2056421' first='Jasin' last='Custus-Dancy'] make for an excellent guard rotation. <em>Tip-off is at 5:30PM</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Fri., December 8^th…Lower Merion at Downingtown West:</strong> This is an intriguing early season match-up between two of the top 6A public school teams in the region. In 2023-24 Lower Merion will lean heavily on senior guards [player_tooltip player_id='2120393' first='Owen' last='McCabe'], Adam Herrenkohl and [player_tooltip player_id='1850321' first='John' last='Mobley']. All three are capable of scoring 20+ points on a given night. 6'5” small Forward [player_tooltip player_id='1123894' first='Jayden' last='Robinson'] will point production from the mid-range to the rim. In 2023-24 D-West will be paced by a pair of extraordinarily talented 2025s in [player_tooltip player_id='1379429' first='Donovan' last='Fromhartz'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1601167' first='Zeke' last='Staz']. Both hybrid-forwards are potential DI prospects. We expect sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='2336898' first='Brady' last='Moore'] to contribute heavily for D-West in this game too. <em>Tip-off is at 5:00PM.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Fri., December 8^th…Unionville vs. Malvern Prep:</strong> Unionville (2022-23 District-1 5A runner up) returns their senior trio of Charlie Kammeier, [player_tooltip player_id='1848627' first='James' last='Anderson'], and [player_tooltip player_id='1850283' first='Ryan' last='Brown']. All three of these skilled guards can play at the next level. 2026 stretch-4 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1493066' first='James' last='Brenner'] is a match-up nightmare for opponents. Unionville's 6'6” traditional small forward [player_tooltip player_id='2383329' first='Nick' last='Diehl'] is an under the radar prospect. MP will be paced by scoring machine [player_tooltip player_id='991421' first='Ryan' last='Williams'] (Northeastern commit). He will get plenty of support from a pair of elite 2027s in wing [player_tooltip player_id='2194375' first='Nick' last='Harken'] and combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1406896' first='Marvin' last='Reed']. Also, for Malvern, keep an eye on guard [player_tooltip player_id='2322815' first='Achilles' last='Tucker-Turner'].<em> Tip-off is at 6:30PM at WCU.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Fri., December 8^th…Archbishop Carroll at Exeter:</strong> This young, but outstanding Carroll lineup needs no introduction. Elite point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1608257' first='Ian' last='Williams'] and wing scorer [player_tooltip player_id='1454254' first='Luca' last='Foster'] are two of the highest ranked 2026s in the area. Plus, Carroll has a two nationally rated 2027s in [player_tooltip player_id='2194330' first='Munir' last='Greig'] and Darrell Davis. Exeter returns two key players from last year's 5A state tourney runner up team. The first is scoring wing [player_tooltip player_id='2226362' first='Kevin' last='Saenz'] who can drain threes and score off the dribble. The other is comb-guard [player_tooltip player_id='1850267' first='Reece' last='Garvin']. He is 3-point ace and can serve as a primary ball handler too. <em>Tip-off is at 8:30PM</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
