AVCTL Division 3 Teams
Augusta (18-7, 6-4), Buhler (6-14, 3-6), El Dorado (7-13, 3-6), McPherson (15-6, 9-1), Winfield (2-18, 0-9)
Justin Clausing, 6’2, G/F, 2020, Augusta
A solid two-way who has a great eye for the defensive side of the floor. Clausing is an athletic player with a strong frame and good hands. He can play inside some and shows solid leaping ability. He can come up with steals, block shots and get on the board with his all-around scrappy play
Clinton Hall, 6’3, F, 2021, Winfield @hall_jr32
Hall is coming off a strong offseason running with Perry Ellis Elite and showed off a well-rounded, inside-out skill set. He is a terrific shot blocker, blessed with good timing around the basket, and at the offensive end can play out of the high post, is good in the pick-and-roll and can step out and knock down outside shots as well. He is among the players in the league poised for a breakout season in 2019-20.
Isaiah Hernandez, 5’10, G, 2022, Buhler
Hernandez has been making noise on both ends of the floor, showcasing his athleticism as a defender on the move and an offensive threat with the ball in his hands. He has good footwork and can stay in front of opponents and make plays with his hands. He looks to rebound on both ends and is an unselfish player who distributes the ball well.
Matt Hromek, 6’0, G, 2020, Circle @matt_hromek
Hromek was a second team all-conference selection last season after averaging 11.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game. He shot 47 percent from the field and made nearly 50 percent of his 3-point attempts, leading Circle with 67 treys.
Isaac LeShore, 6’4, G/F, 2020, Buhler
LeShore is coming off a productive season with Kansas MTXE 17U, showing off his two-way play as a lengthy defender and great rebounder on both ends of the floor. LeShorehas the ability to block shots both inside and out and create transition opportunities for himself and teammates. He can finish plays around the basket and can operate as a slasher on offense while defending the opposing team’s go-to scorer on the opposite end.
