Zane Moylan, 6’5, G/F, 2019, Holton @zmoylan21
Moylan has good size for a wing player and has the ability to make shots from all over the court. He can spot up on the 3-point arc and knock down perimeter shots, works hard at the defensive end and can get on the boards as well.
Dillon Byrne, 6’2, G, 2019, Silver Lake @dbyrne1012
Byrne has decent size for a guard at 6’2 and is a strong point guard who can knock down 3-pointers and finish at the the rim. He brings court awareness, the ability to make on-time passes and a team-first attitude.
Kellen Marshall, 5’5, G, 2022, Council Grove
He’s not very big, listed at just 5’5, but Marshall is a standout perimeter shooter armed with confidence, a quick release that allows him to get off his shot over bigger defenders, and has a lot of range, able to shoot from well beyond the arc. He has been the leading scorer for a team that is 4-2 this season, averaging 13 points and 2.5 assists per game. He is shooting 52 percent from the field and has made 21 3-pointers, shooting 49 percent from distance through the first six games.
Drew Nicholson, 6’5, SF, 2021, Hoisington
A long, lanky wing player, Nicholson is versatile, inside-out type player who has the ability to shoot the 3 and get on the boards. He has proven to be a tough rebounder for a youngster and is capable of mixing it up defensively in the paint, but is capable of stepping out and playing on the perimeter as well.
Dawson Zenger, 6’0, G, 2021, Rock Creek @DawsonZenger
Zeneger got a lot of varsity burn a year ago as a ninth-grader, and has taken his game to new heights this season for Rock Creek. He is listed at 6’0, but has long arms and has a rangy frame and plays bigger than his listed height. He shows a nice mid-range game, able to pull up off the dribble and knock down jumpers, can get to the basket off the bounce and shows a nice outside jumper.
