Michael Cahill, 5’11, PG, 2021, St. James
An impressive defender who stays in front of the ball and looks to get touches and swat the ball out of play. Cahill is a strong player for his size, a two-way player who shows up on both ends of the floor. He has good vision and is a smart and skillful passer as well.
Matthew DeLeion, 5’10, G, 2021, St. James
Another impressive shooter who also brings speed and versatility to the floor. He can handle the ball well in open space and is good at avoiding problem areas of the floor. He can pass well and is an unselfish player overall. He can do a lot with the ball but is at his best when he stops and pops from the midrange area or behind the 3-point line.
Pete Janssen, 6’3, F, 2021, Mill Valley
A solid presence in the paint who can find space and score off the glass. Janssen does a lot inside and shows a reliance as a defender and shot blocker. He is an intelligent player who plays a simple game and does it well. Janssen has a strong frame and is also a good rebounder.
Dorian Stephens, 6’3, G, 2021, Blue Valley
Also a football standout who recently committed to play at Kansas State, Stephens is a nice athlete with good size and overall physicality. He is listed at 6’3 and shows strong hands and an ability to climb a ladder and make plays over opponents. He can handle it and has good slashing potential and off the ball movement to the basket. An athlete with upside potential.
Quinn Wittenauer, 5’9, G, 2021, Mill Valley @QuinWittenauer
A nice guard who works hard and looks to play on both ends of the floor. He can handle the ball some and has good speed and a lot of drive and physicality. He can get to the basket and can connect from a distance when he has the look. Also a defender who can come away with a steal and he makes good passes as well.
