Another interior player who made his presence felt despite not being a household name is AJ. Veal is one of a couple of two-sport athletes in this list, and he definitely looks like it in his 6’4″, 220-pound frame. He is never going to lead the Redhawks in scoring, but he is going to be someone they can count on to fill his role and be active when he’s on the floor. AJ was on the floor late on Thursday night, and he stepped up with back-to-back crucial baskets to take the lead from 6 points to 11. These both came off dump-off passes from his excellent Point Guard, one of them being an and-one, which ignited the Westwood crowd with energy. Veal has been an unsung hero for this team all year long, but there is no doubting his impact in crunch time of the school’s first-ever State Championship.
