ZACK BLUE | 6’0 G | PATRIOT ’20
One thing that stood out about Blue is his ability to consistently beat his man off the dribble. His change of pace is electric. Blue also did his due diligence defensively where he was very vigilant.
JACK CLARK | 6’1 G | TUSCARORA ’21
Clark was one of the best shooters we saw on Saturday. He shredded Woodson’s 2-3 zone by hitting five standstill threes.
DAYVON FAULK | 6’5 C | TUSCARORA ’21
He’s still very raw, but there are a lot of things to like about Dayvon Faulk. One thing is his passing ability. Faulk sees the court well and plays unselfishly. Perhaps his most valuable asset is his size. Faulk is a forceful paint presence who can block shots and rebound in traffic.
HASSEN KURTU | 6’6 F | SOUTH LAKES ’20
Kurtu’s defensive versatility is impressive. At 6’6, he can protect the rim but also switch out onto guards and move his feet well enough to stay in front.
ETHAN LASH | 6’1 G | W.T. WOODSON ’20
Lash shot the ball confidently but also did a lot of other things well for his team. He did his due diligence defensively by boxing out consistently and rebounding the ball in traffic.
JIAAN SEHHAT | 6’1 F | LANGLEY ’21
Sehhat plays with a relentless motor that became contagious among his teammates. He demonstrates a good understanding of the game and can hit shots when his team needs it.
JACK TAYLOR | 6’3 G | MARSHALL ’21
Taylor was one of the best long-term prospects we saw in the gym on Saturday. He’s a knockdown shooter with size and impressive court vision. The next step for Taylor will be to develop better use of his off hand and continue to develop his fundamentals.
MIKE TEAL | 6’1 G | TC WILLIAMS ’21
Teal brought great energy off the bench and contributed on both ends. He was active and alert defensively. Teal took charges, created deflections and forced turnovers. Offensively, he got downhill consistently and attacked the rim but also made shots from the perimeter.
CALEB WHITAKER | 6’2 G | LEE ’20
Whitaker is a long-limbed lefty with intriguing physical tools. He’s really good at rebounding the ball in traffic and is strong enough to absorb contact and finish in traffic. Whitaker can finish with both hands and sees the court very well.
JADON WHITE | 6’2 G | TUSCARORA ’20
White is a big guard with good burst. He likes to push the pace and apply pressure on the rim in transition. White is a menace defensively as a result of his ability to read the passing lanes and react quickly.
