Summer Surge: Seniors Producing in Offseason

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>AJ Ambrose | G | Cardinal Gibbons | @AJ4ambrose</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ambrose is a steady two-way contributor who does a little bit of everything. He has a strong feel for the game, seeing the floor well and making quick reads as a passer. While he's not overly flashy, he can score at all three levels and has a knack for taking smart shots in rhythm. He plays with poise, competes on both ends, and brings leadership qualities that show up in the way he uplifts his group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2415598' first='Justice' last='Phillips'] | G/F | North Marion | @Datboijust_ice</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At 6-6, Phillips brings physicality and floor spacing. He's a true inside-out threat who plays through contact and can hit shots from beyond the arc. A willing passer and high-IQ player, he fits into team concepts well and doesn't force the issue. Phillips has proven he can carry a scoring load while impacting the game defensively with his length.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1660049' first='Christian' last='Yeargin'] | G | Stranahan | @ChristianYearg1</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Yeargin is a competitive, 6-4 guard who brings a physical edge to the perimeter. He shoots it with confidence from deep and plays downhill with power. What stands out is his defensive motor—he defends multiple positions, fights through screens, and finishes possessions with rebounds. In transition, he's efficient and decisive, making him a reliable option in up-tempo settings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ronald Clark | G | Impact Christian | @ronaldclark_</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Clark has shown a balanced game on both ends this offseason. He's controlled with the ball in his hands, sees passing angles well, and creates clean looks for his teammates. Offensively, he thrives attacking off the bounce and finishing at the rim with either hand. Defensively, he sets the tone—anticipating plays and creating turnovers. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2522725' first='Isaac' last='Buckley'] | G/F | 2026 | Lake Howell | @theogieb</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Buckley has had a strong offseason showing, building momentum with his blend of size, skill, and production. The 6-6 wing brings versatility on both ends—able to guard multiple spots, knock down shots, and attack off the dribble. He's shown confidence as a transition finisher and decision-maker, and his tools fit the mold of a modern wing. Expect his stock to keep climbing this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jordan Quince | G | 2026 | Dwyer | @Walkinnlegend</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Quince continues to stand out with his physical defense and reliable presence on both ends. He's had a strong summer—defending with intensity, moving the ball well, and knocking down shots when needed. His ability to stay composed and lead in high-pressure moments is translating, and he's trending in the right direction heading into his junior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Niteno Pierre | F | 2026 | Boyd H. Anderson | @NitenoPierrre</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pierre has quietly put together a productive offseason and is positioning himself as a breakout candidate. At 6-6, he's been effective in multiple roles—hitting outside shots, exploiting mismatches, and flashing vision from the high post. His physical tools and evolving game make him a wing to track as the season approaches.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
