Logan Blair Logan Blair 6'3" | SF St. John's | 2022 State MD | New World/St. John’s (DC) ’22
Blair is a three-and-D wing who will do whatever it takes to help the team. Whether that means going out and grabbing 10 rebounds, hitting an open shot, or taking a charge, he is up to the task.
Justin Boggs | New World/St. Andrew’s (MD) ’23
Boggs is a versatile two-way guard who demonstrates ideal toughness. He is not afraid to hit the ground for a loose ball or take and make a clutch shot.
Garrett Brennan | District Basketball Club/SSSAS (VA) ’22
Brennan sets the tone with his effort at all times while on the floor. He is like a coach on the floor who leads by example and is extremely reliable.

State
MD
| Team Durant/Sidwell Friends (DC) ’22
Gamble is a defensive specialist who is strong at the point of attack on the ball but also active and alert off the ball. His offensive repertoire is steadily improving and before long he will be a consistent two-way threat.
Kris Johnson | District Basketball Club/Georgetown Prep (MD) ’23
Johnson is a big guard who can impact the game without having a play called for him. He is efficient with the ball, gets to the rim well, makes smart decisions, and rebounds at a solid rate.
Xzavier Long Xzavier Long 6'6" | PF VA Academy | 2021 State VA | Prospect U (DC) ’21
Long is the type of player you love to have on your team, but hate to play against. His willingness to pick up full-court and disrupt the rhythm of his opponents on every play is commendable.
Jerrell McCready | New World/Thomas Stone (MD) ’21
McCready’s game is far from flashy, but it does not lack substance. The lanky wing does his due diligence on the boards and can facilitate the ball but also scores in a variety of ways.
James Patterson James Patterson 6'2" | SG Meadowbrook | 2021 VA | Team Richmond/Carmel (VA) ’22
Patterson is a versatile wing who can hold his own on both ends. He is a grab-and-go threat who operates best in transition and is relentless on the boards.
Bert Rynell | Team Melo/Dunbar (MD) ’22
There’s a maturity about Rynell’s game that is palpable. He showcases a high basketball IQ and the mental fortitude to consistently make winning plays.
Cam Smith Cam Smith 6'7" | PF Loyola | 2021 State MD | New World/Loyola Blakefield (MD) ’21
Smith is the type of player you can deploy without worrying about his effort or commitment. Did I mention that he’s 6-foot-6 and athletic?
