Pre-Season Player of Year
SG Isaiah Saulsberry (Harrisburg – 2018)
Saulsberry is one of the premier scorers in southern Illinois. He is a smooth two guard that has a lights out perimeter shot and the athleticism to win off the bounce. The senior is coming off an impressive summer with the Illinois Bears on the circuit and is primed to have a dominant senior season for Harrisburg.
