CODY KELLEM | 6’2 G | SOUTH COUNTY ’20
Cody Kellem had one of the better looking jumpers we saw in the gym tonight, and the results match up with the aesthetics. Kellem looks primed for a potential breakout season.
CHRISTIAN LEWIS | 6’0 G | FAIRFAX ’20
Christian Lewis handled the ball confidently for what is looking like a very good Fairfax team. He’s a quick left handed guard who can break down the defense and pressure the ball on the other end.
RICKY PETERS | 6’1 G | FAIRFAX ’20
Ricky Peters had some nice moments offensively in transition where he showcased his athleticism. Peters is a rangy guard who can really defend and create havoc.
TRENTON PICOTT | 6’6 F | SOUTH COUNTY ’21
Trenton Picott continues to progress on the offensive end. He looks much more comfortable handling the ball than in the past. Picott is still earning his bread and butter on the defensive side with his versatility and ability to block or challenge any shot in his vicinity.
AARON QUEEN | 6’2 G | WAKEFIELD ’20
Aaron Queen started off aggressively, scoring 7 of Wakefield’s first 9 points. Queen can certainly put the ball in the basket, but we’d like to see him make guys around him better.
JACK TAYLOR | 6’3 G | MARSHALL ’21
Jack Taylor has a long and broad frame which makes it easy for him to shoot over top of virtually anyone at this level. He can make shots from long range or attack the basket and finish in the paint. Taylor also has good court vision and is willing to involve his teammates. The next step to his development will be improving the use of his off hand, specifically with regards to handling the ball and finishing.
ELIJAH TURNER | 5’8 PG | MADISON ’21
Elijah Turner is a shifty lead guard who can really handle the ball and run an offense. He’s a tenacious on ball defender and an alert help defender with quick reactions.
MYLES WEBB | 6’6 F | WAKEFIELD ’21
Myles Webb showcased his expanding face up skills and crafty footwork in the lane. Defensively, he was disruptive around the basket with his length and made his presence felt on the boards.
