His physical strength is such an advantage. He pushed cutters out of the lane and made offensive post players uncomfortable by not being able to back him down. He has a big body and is a tough player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Aiden Sanchez (2027) |6'2 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Breckinridge kid is long and an opportunistic playmaker. Sanchez is also a great leader. He defended really well, got big-time stops when [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] needed them, and had quite a few on-ball steals this weekend. Aiden is a great rebounder as well on the defensive end. He is an alpha on the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><u>WHY?</u></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2447423' first='Brady' last='Keane'] (2027) |6'0 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2075310' first='Northstar' last='Titans'] Stone</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brady was an absolute workhorse this weekend and is always the guy who does the little things that don't always show in the box score. He took 4 charges on the weekend, always assigned with guarding the opposing team's best player, led the team in steals, and had 8 STEALS in the last game, in a win against a quality [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects squad.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1332141' first='Cameron' last='Miller'] |6'1 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] 2026 Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cam is a true PG. He takes care of the ball, rarely turns it over, gets the ball across half-court, and gets the team into the offense. His strength and physicality helps him be a great on-ball defender. Miller has come a long way knowing when to create for others and when to attack on his on.<br><br><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2140590' first='Cody' last='Benson'] (2027) |6'2 SF| [program_tooltip program_id='2075310' first='Northstar' last='Titans'] Stone</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cody was great this weekend off the ball. He constantly crashed the offense glass and skyed for rebounds, sprinted in transition for easy buckets, and worked his tail off guarding bigs on switches, and in help side-defense. Benson is great at using his length for rebounding on both ends and contesting shots on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2382257' first='Eli' last='Miller'] (2026) |6'0 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2075310' first='Northstar' last='Titans'] Martinson</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> Showed that he is an explosive crossover. Eli got to get to the rim and finished at an impressive clip He knocked down multiple 3s and played great on-ball defense moving his feet. Keep eyes on this kid from the Titans.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1414922' first='Evan' last='Stormo'] (2025) |6'3 SF| Hoop City 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stormo is fearless, he will guard 1-5 when needed. He rebounds at such a high clip and is never scared of taking the big shot. Evan was asked to take on guys much bigger than him and he was very consistent at holding them down. Stormo is a next-level athlete in whatever sport he chooses. His multi-sport background makes him excel in every aspect of the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1545637' first='Jackson' last='Wadsworth'] (2026) |6'2 G| Hoop City 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He showed once again toughness and hustle to make or break a team. Jackson took it upon himself to guard the opposing team's best guard and shut them down. He was hampered by a deep bruise in his thigh but never took himself out and continued to do the little things. All the while being a consistent shooter from deep and he handled secondary ball-handling duties seamlessly. This kid is a winner.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1539675' first='Nathan' last='Stevenson'] (2027) |6'3 SF| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I was impressed with his effort &amp; strength. I have heard that this Midget from Dickinson is tough &amp; versatile and he did not disappoint. He made this article by diving after loose balls and taking charges this weekend. He rebounded the heck out of the ball and played really hard all weekend in all 4 games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2429981' first='Tagon' last='Woelber'] (2025) |6'1 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2222672' first='Sanford' last='Sports Academy'] White</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He played great well in all four games. Tagon is elite in terms of shiftiness. He seemed to play slightly faster than everyone else. His defensive game is what stood out. Woelber picked up full court, took a charge, and gathered in many rebounds from the point guard position.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2406805' first='Parker' last='Brodina'] (2025) |6'4 G/F| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Parker had another great weekend down in Sioux Falls at Stomping Grounds. Brodina guarded a few of the best players on [program_tooltip program_id='2228190' first='Team' last='Warwick'] and Hoop City and kept them in check only allowing them a few baskets down low per game. His toughness showed as he guarded 1-5 all weekend and played the 1-5 all weekend. Parker scored at all 3-levels and made some really big plays offensively to help [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] go 4-0 on the weekend.<br><br><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1931467' first='Payton' last='Schell'] (2025) |6'3 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline">WHY?</span></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Peyton had a phenomenal weekend hitting multiple 3's in each game while also scoring around the rim. He also had some big blocks and rebounds to help [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] go 4-0 on the weekend in Pool A. The Eraser has super-long arms with great anticipation for rejecting &amp; changing shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1559968' first='Raeshaun' last='Earl'] (2026) |5'11 G| [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Selects</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another 4-0 weekend for Coach Glasser's squad and they beat the [program_tooltip program_id='2078372' first='ECI' last=''] Prospects on Saturday night. Earl did absolutely everything for his team. Raeshen was a menace on defense. He created numerous steals/turnovers because of his athleticism. Earl also hit outside shots and got to the rim early &amp; often. The Hankinson Pirate rebounded well on both ends. Earl grabbed many boards with of his athleticism, jumping ability, and effort. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2135244,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/08/GameChangers-Created-Logo-1.png"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/08/GameChangers-Created-Logo-1.png?w=863" alt="" class="wp-image-2135244" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image -->
