I’ve watched Ulmer score a lot of points since last summer, but this was the most balanced offensive performance I’ve seen from him for a stretch, and it’s because of what he’s added to his game. The perimeter shot remains elite as he has a deep 3-ball, is one of the few mid-range attackers, and creates for himself off the dribble. But what stood out was how often he attacked the paint. He finished through traffic, got a couple of dunks, and showed off more than a reliable jumpshot. That’s something we hadn’t seen a ton of. Against Morgan Dawgs, he completely took over, stringing together 15 straight points with step-backs, crafty finishes, and tough buckets around the basket. His scoring has never been in question. Expanding where those points come from only raises his ceilin,g as he showed me he could go inside as well. Can’t wait to see what he adds next. Solid outing from him at Tune Up. 

Ulmer is always a pleasure to watch with his steady, reliable presence that Fountain Fort Carson depends on. The game appeared to slow down for him this weekend, allowing him to play at his own pace and consistently make the right reads. His ability to control the tempo creates space for his offense, and he took full advantage by knocking down his shots. Ulmer was especially effective in the mid range and from beyond the arc, where he consistently found openings and made defenses pay. His smooth shooting stroke and confidence with the ball make him a difficult matchup, and he continues to establish himself as one of the most dependable shooters on the floor. When Fountain Fort Carson needs a basket or a calming presence, Ulmer is often the player who delivers

Ulmer continues to elevate his game and proved it again with an impressive showing at the tournament. He does a little bit of everything on the floor, impacting both ends with his versatility. Offensively he’s a confident scorer who can stretch the defense with his three point shooting while also attacking off the bounce and finishing strong at the rim. He plays with control, picking his spots and making smart decisions with the ball. Defensively he stood out with active hands, generating steals and locking in with tough man to man coverage. With his all around skill set and continued growth, Ulmer is trending toward a big summer

Jordan Ulmer Jordan Ulmer 6'4" | SG/PG Fountain-Fort Carson | 2028 State CO has transcended his scoring from tacking on just 10 PPG his freshman year to an astounding near 18 PPG his sophomore season. Ulmer is seeing new career highs across the board, making night and day changes to his rebounding and assist totals. The 6’3 all-star has handles on a string and impressive court vision that he implements to lead Fountain-Fort Carson with confidence. His gargantuan improvement marks a significant difference in the way he approaches the game. Ulmer is heading into the summer with a new wave of swagger, and I’d expect him to take on even bigger roles during the second half of his high school tenure.

Jordan Ulmer Jordan Ulmer 6'4" | SG/PG Fountain-Fort Carson | 2028 State CO ‘s confidence this month needs to be studied, as he recently chalked up a dominant 24/11 double-double while shooting an unstoppable 5/9 from downtown. Ulmer’s rebounding is a new career high for him, posting numbers that his coaching staff at FFC can count on. The top-ranked guard in the class of 2028 in the box state has shown tremendous growth, letting his shots fly without an ounce of hesitation. As a 6’3 all-around guard, Ulmer is able to easily shoot over defenders and create plenty fo space for himself to thrive.

Ulmer is proving that his freshman season was just the beginning at Fountain Fort Carson, taking another leap with an outstanding start this year. Averaging 18.5 points and 6.2 rebounds, he’s in constant attack mode and has a natural feel for putting the ball in the basket. He keeps defenses on their heels with his ability to score in the mid and short game, and he’s also showing a confident, improved touch from deep. Ulmer’s scoring instincts, aggression and growth make him one of the most dangerous offensive players in the league right now

Ulmer is another player that has made a huge leap in the rankings because of the work that he put in over the summer. Thing is, he was a player that we were high on heading into the summer as he had a solid freshman season, but did not have the overall team success to determine if it was a good player on a bad team or not. We also wanted to see him against other top players in the state. Well, he answered those questions all summer long as he came to EVERYTHING with a point to prove. He dominated in grassroots with Hoops Therapy as their best player and came to showcases and was one of the best players there amongst the best in the class. There’s high expectations for him this season but he’s proved that he belongs. He moves into the Top-10. 

Ulmer was dominant and left no doubt about his standing as a top prospect in the class. With an elite handle, he created at will, attacked the rim, and buried shots from deep. He’s a bucket. His blend of size, creativity, and skill made him unstoppable, and that was on display throughout the day. Already well-regarded with a big summer showing from him, Ulmer’s breakout showing at the showcase vaulted him into Top 15 territory and earned him MVP honors on the day.

What we know: 

What we know is that Ulmer was one of the best scoring freshmen in the state a season ago. He is a good-sized guard who attacks off the dribble but also can play off-ball and put points up from deep as well. Ulmer seems to score with ease and has a very mature game that will only get better. This will be a big season for him as he tries to get some wins on the board for his team, but we like what we saw from him over the summer as well. 

What we’d like to see: 

I’m thrilled that Jordan Jordan Jones | 2026 CO is heading down to the showcase. Jordan Jordan Jones | 2026 CO will be one of the best scorers in the Springs this season and is a player that I don’t think the class knows much about, but it’s been great to see him come down and compete with players from across the state to put them on notice. I’d like to see Ulmer continue his scoring barrage, but also to back that up with playmaking. I want to see how he looks alongside other top players in the state and see if he’s able to keep up that production when he’s not the focal point of the offense with everything going through him. I also want to see what kind of competitor he is. He comes in outside of the Top-20 players in the class in the last update, but with a big showing at the event, that certainly changes. This is a big opportunity for him to rise.

Ulmer might be one of the most showcase-ready players in the class. Coming out of the Springs, he doesn’t get to see this many highly-ranked players often, but he feels he belongs with them. He’s a pure bucket-getter who thrives in competitive settings. We want to see him match up, make noise, and force his way into higher rankings conversation. With the right performance here, Ulmer could be one of the class’s big risers.
