Arkansas Valley-Chisholm Trail (3)
Augusta, Buhler, Circle, El Dorado, McPherson, Winfield
Armon Acosta, 5’10, G, 2022, Winfield
A strong guard who can handle the ball and finish plays through contact. Acosta has a good frame and balance and strong upper body strength. He can power his way to the basket but also plays off the ball well and can score at the free throw line and make smart extra passes in transition.
Isaiah Hernandez, 5’10, G, 2022, Buhler
A gamer for Buhler who shows promise as a lead guard. Hernandez has good athleticism and a lot of great ideas when he has the ball in his hands. He has the ability to operate as a catch-and-shoot scorer and the speed and awareness to get out in transition and score through contact in open floor. Henandez has a lot to offer and shows good 3-point range and a solid IQ.
Jeremiah Kemboi, 2022, EL Dorado
A player to watch in the 2022 class for El Dorado who shows strong athleticism, in-game quickness and terrific recovery time. He’s also a promising ball handler with a smooth game and solid vision. Kemboi plays his best ball from the top of the key where he looks to create for his teammates and weave his way around traffic. He has a lot of control for his age and shows leadership qualities and scoring ability.
Jaydon Sundgren, 5’9, G, 2022, El Dorado
An all-around player who can score 3-pointers, get in transition and force turnovers. Sundgren has good defensive awareness and he keeps his hands up and looks to catch passes and jump passing lanes and atip the ball out of play. An emerging guard who looks to score and has a toughness and hard-nosed mentality on both ends.
