Gus Etchison Gus Etchison 6'0" | PG Hamilton Heights | 2021 State IN – 6’0 PG 2021 – Hamilton Heights (IN) / EG10 2021
Etchison is a terrific ball handler with a ton of skill. Overall had a real good weekend, especially on the second day. He has a pretty aggressive mindset when he plays. Likes to drive a lot but shoots it well also. Already is a Western Michigan commit so he will be looking to go out with a bang in his senior year.
Flynn Carlson Flynn Carlson 6'7" | PF Victory Christian Academy | 2021 State IN – 6’7 PF 2021 – Victory Christian Academy (IN) / Indiana Game Select 2021
This was one of the best outings from Carlson that we have seen. Was real aggressive around the post and was scoring the ball well down there. He is tall and thin right now so getting stronger would help him greatly. Pretty fast too and could end up being more of a stretch 4 if his shooting improves a bit more. Carlson is in for a big senior year.
Nick Sexton – 5’10 PG/SG 2021 – Providence (IN) / Southern Indiana Blaze 2021
Sexton is a small combo guard that has a ton of quickness. Real aggressive and tough player all-around. He is a nice shooter with ability to both pull-up and shoot off the catch. Stole the ball a few times on defense. Sexton is the type of player that leaves it all on the floor.
Carlos Colon – 6’5 PF 2022 – Decatur Central (IN) / Team Future 2022
Colon is a tall and lanky power froward. Great fundamentals and can get up and down the floor well. Needs to add some strength and more size to his frame. Mostly stuck around the post but does look to have the potential to end up expanding his offense. Real interesting prospect that I plan on keeping an eye on these next couple of years.
Grant St Aubin – 6’4 SF/PF 2022 – Valparaiso (IN) / Indiana Game Premier 2022
St Aubin is an athletic forward that has a pretty well-balanced game on the offensive end. Real tough and aggressive throughout the game I watched. Great rebounder on both ends and can push the tempo at times. His size and skill gives a team a few options on who he can guard. Overall, pretty impressive showing from St Aubin this past weekend.
Zane Doughty – 6’8 PF 2023 – Ben Davis (IN) / INB Elite 2023
Doughty is a tall and lanky post player. His best ability would be his rebounding as he is excellent at crashing the boards. His rebounding gave his team a ton of second chance points. Does not really shoot a jumper all that much but that might come later in his career. Doughty had a nice weekend.
Karson Colin – 6’3 SG 2023 – Lake Central (IN) / Indiana Game Select 2023
Colin is a bigger guard with a ton of athleticism. Real, real good rebounder on both ends. Likes to drive more than shoot. His offense is not really complete so it is kind of hard to evaluate it right now. Has the size and ability to be a great defender long term. Should start to get a better look at Colin once the high school season picks back up.
Dylan Doss – 5’8 PG 2023 – Cathedral (IN) / INB Elite 2023
Doss is a quick and shifty lead guard. Small right now and may grow a bit more. More of a lead guard but does have the ability to shoot the ball. Love his court vision and ability to dish the ball off to his teammates. Should be a solid prospect in the long term especially if he grows some more.
