Zack Golaszewski / 6’1″ / SG / The Woodlands Christian / 2019
Zack can definitely provide shooting at the next level. He has a textbook pretty release and will most likely connect on long range attempts when left open. He started off the Friday afternoon game vs Nolan Catholic by knocking down three trey balls and finishing the half with four. His shooting will be key in the Warriors run to another state title.
Sam Martin / 6’0″ / PG / Burleson / 2019
Martin has the ultimate green light to fire from wherever whenever on this Elks team. He heated up to start the game vs. Colleyville Heritage drilling in four threes in the first quarter. However, he cooled off and finished with 18 in the loss. Martin has a sturdy basketball body at the lead guard spot. From what I have seen, he must be more aggressive in getting into the paint to open up the rest of his game, rather than settling for 25-footers. He is an unsigned senior schools should definitely take a look at.
Y’all see where he shooting that thing from? JIMMER VIBEZ🌧🌧

Austin Poling / 5’10″ / SG / Fort Worth Nolan Catholic / 2019
The diminutive off-ball guard provides the toughness and shooting the Vikings need to win games. He sacrifices his body on the defensive end and is a threat to make open threes on the offensive end. Poling does what is asked of him and is a true team player.
Jayden Williams / 5’7″ / PG / Fort Worth Nolan Catholic / 2019
There could be an argument for if Williams is really an under-the-radar senior. Nevertheless, he definitely has his sights set on a TAPPS state championship the way he has been leading the Vikings this season. It is common to find seniors playing for themselves in the their last year of high school basketball. Well not Jayden. He has done a solid job of taking what the defense gives him and playing for his teammates. All of which will translate to the next level at East Texas Baptist.
