Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Nearing 1,000 points for his career, Vacchiano came out quiet as a scorer, picking his spots while showing his slick vision and daring ambition as a passer. The Trojans’ senior leader put on his Superman cape for the second half, pouring in 18 of his game-high 24 points in the final two quarters to keep Wissahickon in the game. He uses a decisive handle and his sturdy frame to get north-south and finishing strong through contact, while also posing a dangerous threat as a 3-point pullup shooter once he backs his defender up. While not a pure point guard, Vacchiano did well to control the tempo of the game as well, outside of a few moments where he forced the issue. Vacchiano profiles as a priority target for a wide array of small-college programs.
