Continue ReadingThe Top 150 Expos have been taking place all around the country and this weekend the event comes to Sioux Falls. The event has an exciting 75 players plus signed up already and more are expected. Today we preview the top lead guards that will be in attendance.
Dillon Barrow (6-2, SF Lincoln, 2018). Barrow is considered one of the best talents in his class and he’s been strong both as a injury step-in for the state champs last year and the ball handler for the SD United 15u squad in 2015 and the PBC National team this summer, both considered among the best.
Carson Coulter (6-1, SF Lincoln, 2017). Coulter played a role on last year’s state title team as a feisty and trusted lead guard that players love to compete with. Carson has the quickness to turn the corner and the fire to attack the best.
Adam Erickson (5-9, Harrisburg, 2019). Harrisburg has had some recent varsity struggles but nobody is putting more into competing at the younger levels than they have and Erickson is one of the young players working to lead the program into the future.
Tate Gale (5-10, Irene-Wakonda, 2018). Tate has played varsity as a freshman and sophomore and averaged 15 points per game in that time. What is he like as a prospect? What will Tate be like as the team playmaker this winter? Get a preview this weekend.
Jamison Helmers (5-9, Okoboji, 2019). An Iowa lead guard who is also a solid football player, Helmers comes to the event as a very skilled lead guard with a tight handle and a nice shooting touch.
Joe Jahner (6-0, Bismarck, 2019). Jahner is a top ten level sophomore in the state of North Dakota. He played a role last year on varsity and will have a much bigger role going forward. Joe looks to represent himself as a top ten guy in his state this weekend.
Wil Johnson (5-11, Harrisburg, 2017). Johnson will be a big reason while there will be college coaches watching this weekend. He’s played the role of distributor and bucket getter in the past twelve months and he’s one of the guys we expect to be competing for event MVP.
Trey King (6-0, Irene-Wakonda, 2019). The younger brother of Northern State freshman Gabe King, Trejon has three years left of varsity basketball and he’s already averaged 13 points a game as a young talent. King will join Gale in Sioux Falls.
Christian Kuntz (5-11, WF Sheyenne, 2019). Played Class A level basketball as a freshman last year for the Mustangs and should have a big role as a sophomore. Kuntz has an excellent shooting touch and limited turnovers as a young player.
Cody Robertson (5-8, Grand Forks RR, 2017). The high energy Robertson is known for his relentless play on both ends of the floor. This summer he competed and had success against some quality guards and this weekend he aims to be the top lead guard at the event.
Mark Toe (5-9, Grand Forks RR, 2017). One of the best ball pressure defenders that we saw in the Midwest the strong guard will be in Sioux Falls to try and stop all guards from scoring, and to show how he can run a team.
