My second time seeing the talented 2027 wing/forward out of Sullivan and he put together two of the more impressive showings at the Barr-Reeve Summer Shootout. Paul Ridgway Paul Ridgway 6'7" | PF Sullivan | 2027 State IN is a skilled 6’7” stud that impacts the game in both ends of the floor. Fluid athlete with a physical frame that showed his scoring prowess from all three levels. Knocked down multiple 3’s with a smooth left handed release. Really good in iso situations using his size to his advantage. Versatile defender that looked to jump passing lanes. Was really good in transition finishing above the rim multiple times. As skilled as any forward in Southwest Indiana and will put up big numbers for Sullivan in his senior season.

Smooth inside-out left handed forward with as intriguing of a skillset as any player at the shootout. Has the ability to play a variety of different roles depending on his matchup. Bigger defenders he can take to the perimeter as well as smaller defenders he can take them on the block and score. Fluid athlete with good playmaking ability at 6’7”. Switchable defender with rim protecting abilities and rebounds his position.

The skill level of this 6’7″ left-handed forward should continue to attract the attention of college coaches into the summer months. Ridgway showed off a little bit of everything that he can do offensively in a win for DistinXion 17u on Saturday. He finished with 22 points in the contest we watched while knocking down a couple of three-point shots, driving it left from the perimeter, and using his size/strength to finish through smaller defenders around the basket.

Look for Ridgway to be a stock-riser coming up in our Class of 2027 prospect rankings. The 6’6″ left-handed forward is very skilled both away from the basket and around the rim. He hit four three-point shots on his way to a game-high 25 points while also pulling down 6 rebounds and dishing out 3 assists as Sullivan defeated Marshall (IL) 74-56.

Sullivan High School has two very, very good big men. Ridgway, a 6’7″ junior, is one of them that will give the Golden Arrows the best front line in Class 2A this season. Ridgway put up 13.4 points and 4.8 rebounds per game as a sophomore. The left-handed forward is a strong, athletic finisher around the basket and continues to expand his skill level. He has flashed the ability to stretch the floor and attack the basket off of the bounce some as well. We think he could continue to climb our rankings.

Sullivan’s front court is a lot for opposing teams to handle. After getting his feet wet as a freshman, Ridgway exploded this past season averaging 13.4 points and 4.8 rebounds per game for the Golden Arrows. His fluid athleticism, footwork, and ability to switch across multiple positions defensively give him some further upside. He will look to continue to develop and improve his outside shooting as well.
