NOEL BROWN | 6’11 C | FLINT HILL/DISTRICT WAWG
Brown has picked up nine mid-major offers since the first of the month. The 6-foot-11 big man, who has a strong academic record, continues to improve at a steady rate.
CASHEUS COVINGTON | 6’3 G | ARCHBISHOP CARROLL/6TH MAN DC
Pictured above, Covington is coming off an All-Star Selection at Hoop Group Elite Camp this month. The smooth 6-foot-3 lefty is one of the biggest sleepers in the local 2020 class and should be in line to see an uptick in his recruitment soon.
ANDRES FRYE | 6’2 G | MCLEAN SCHOOL/TEAM BISS
Frye impressed at the DC Jam Fest with his versatility and high motor. He averaged 25 points per game and 14 rebounds per game last year. Frye should be a safe bet to replicate that production this upcoming season.
AMIR NESBITT | 6’1 G | MASSANUTTEN MILITARY/BOO WILLIAMS
Nesbitt has been flying under-the-radar for some time now, but his recruitment is starting to pick back up. Oral Roberts and Radford recently offered, but don’t be surprised to see more schools get involved as he prepares to play a key role for Head Coach Chad Myers at MMA.
MATT ROGERS | 6’7 C | ST. MARIA GORETTI/MID ATLANTIC SELECT
Rogers continues to rack up the offers proving that he is one of the more recruitable bigs in the region. Considering how difficult it is to find good players at his position, don’t be surprised to see his recruitment continue to expand.
