<p class="text-gray-700">The Oklahoma State signee is scoring over 20 points and grabbing over 10 rebounds per game for the Crimson Wave and Head Coach Ty White. Allmond has inside/outside versatility at the offensive end and is mobile, athletic, and strong enough to bring versatility to the defensive end of the floor as well. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Givan is having the most consistently productive season of his career at his new school. The 6'9 forward is averaging a double-double for Petersburg High and looks the part of a future SEC forward. The senior changes ends of the floor with ease, can catch and finish in transition and displayed impressive mid range offensive skill.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A tough, floor general, Blanchard is back healthy for the Mavericks who are 7-0 to start the season. The high academic, unsigned senior is a reliable decision maker with the ball in his hands and a capable perimeter shot maker with range. Some of nation's top small college program should be in pursuit.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The recent Randolph Macon commit is a strong, scoring lead guard who is improving as a shot maker. He has good quickness and can get past his defenders, into the lane and finish through contact. Brandon has a good feel for the game, which will likely ease his transition to the college game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A utility man for one of the top programs in the country, Crenshaw provides strength, versatility and a high basketball IQ for the Crimson Wave. He has the ability to play outside and inside at the offensive end and is capable of making open jump shots from beyond the arc. He will rebound at the defensive end and is quick to 50/50 balls. A small college program could find plenty of value in Crenshaw as a prospect in the 2026 class.</p>
