His speed and filthy handles enabled Armstrong to thrive in transition where he can push the rock for lay-ins or assists. On half-court possessions, Armstrong can score at all three levels or operate as a pass first floor general. His ability to blow past defenders with a quick burst and then get paint touches is impressive. His accurate 3-point shooting often caught opponents by surprise. Recently on the grassroots circuit, Armstrong posted a stat line of 14 points and 7 assists per contest at the Pitt Jam Fest (5 games).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2445674"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6809927ad0f92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fairlamb is an athletic and high IQ perimeter prospect with unlimited potential. This past season he was a reserve for the Devon Prep squad that captured the 4A state title. Over the winter Fairlamb proved to be a highly accurate three-point shooter as well as a threat to produce points off the dribble. On the 2025 spring grassroots circuit Fairlamb's well-timed off ball movements led to frequent back door lay-ins. He has also displayed crafty pick-n-pop skills. Plus, he has flashed the ability to work as a secondary ball handler. Fairlamb is an underrated rebounder too.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2563377"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6809927ad0fdb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gale assembled a monster sophomore season as he contributed 15 points per night, dropped as season high 25 points (3 3PM) in a win over CB East and was a 1st Team All-Suburban One League selection. Gale is a three-level scoring guard with a non-stop motor. This winter, Gale produced buckets in the open court, splashed threes, and got to the cup off the bounce. His quick release and ability to shoot on the move made Gale difficult to guard on the perimeter. Gale excelled at operating in designed sets such as DHO action, down screens, and pick-n-rolls. When opponents ran a double team at Gale, his basketball IQ and court visions enabled him to defeat those double teams by quickly moving the ball to an open teammate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2843941"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6809927ad1020"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This long and skilled lefty has been on our radar since the summer 2024 grassroots circuit where he was a standout for [program_tooltip program_id='2428253' first='Team' last='Final Red']. Unfortunately, we did not get to watch him play this winter at Scranton Prep because ofa PIAA transfer ruling. However, Moore proved earlier this month at the Pitt Jam Fest that he has not missed a step. Out in Pittsburgh, the 6'8” and 200+ pound Moore was simply dominant on the interior.  He scored at will on finishes from the dunker spot as well as via the offensive glass. Moore surprised opponents with his ability to elevate in traffic, catch and alley-oop and then cram it home. College coaches will appreciate Moore's ability to post up and then convert over either shoulder. At the other end of the court, Moore's size and enormous wingspan make him an intimidating shot blocker.  Moore recently transferred to the Hill School and reclassed into the 2027 graduate year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
