Gahanna has a ton of young talent ready to breakout this season and Blackmon was a standout performer on Friday for the young squad. Blackmon is a talented ball handler who can get to a variety of spots on the court off the dribble and create shots for himself and his teammates. Late in the game, Blackmon was the guy Gahanna relied on to create shots and eventually send the game to overtime with timely buckets. I’m incredibly excited to follow this Gahanna core throughout their careers.

I was impressed with Steve on Friday night. The 5’10 freshman made an immediate impact off the bench, knocking down two threes and a pull-up jumper in the first quarter to spark Gahanna. After earning a second-half start, he took on the challenge of guarding Toledo commit Marco Mattucci Marco Mattucci 6'4" | SG New Albany | 2026 State OH a few possessions and forced some tough looks. He added another pull-up jumper in the fourth, played with great energy and leadership, and finished with 12 points, showing he’ll be a key contributor moving forward.

Blackmon is a very talented guard who has the ball on a string. He had multiple combinations of moves that got the defense sliding around and off balance. He is a quick guard who knows how to make defenders flip their hips. My favorite thing about his game is that he was in 2 games that came down to the wire, and he made game-winning plays in both of them. Shows his level of IQ and confidence when his team needs it most, great attributes to have as a point guard.
