Aaron Frazier-Spencer (2021) | Penns Grove
Penns Grove is losing Kavon Lewis Kavon Lewis 5'9" | PG Penns Grove | 2020 State NJ and Jaylen Newton from their 25 win team a season ago. This means that Spencer will have to take on an even bigger role. He scored nearly 10 points per contest and was a threat from beyond the arc. He will become the focal point of the offense in his final season at Penns Grove.
Quasin Jackson (2021) | Schalick
We look at one of Schalick’s returning players. They are losing some key members but Jackson will be back for his final season after averaging 12.6 points per game as a junior. He was also near the top of the team in assists and steals. He is a quick guard with great instincts on both sides. His anticipation and jump is beneficial when getting in the passing lanes and driving past a defender on offense.
David Muntz (2021) | Pennsville
Zach Manorowitz is graduating this year and that leaves Pennsville in need of a new leader. That could be Muntz. The versatile guard can step out and shoot or get to the rim. He is a strong rebounder from the perimeter. His versatility is something that Pennsville can take advantage of next season.
Colin Ricciuti (2021) | Woodstown
Ricciuti is one of few returning players for Woodstown. They had a tough season and will look to improve in 2020-2021 with Ricciuti at the helm. He will have to add a little to his game. Ricciuti is already an elite shooter that knocked down 48 three’s this season and that is where most of his work came from. Ricciuti has a golden chance to grow as a player because he will have the ball in his hands a lot next season.
Nasir Robinson (2021) | Penns Grove
Despite the departures, Penns Grove is in good hands with Robinson and Spencer returning. Robinson did not have the ball in his hands much this season but that will change and he will benefit greatly. Robinson has the skills to take over a game offensively and that will be present during his senior season.
