Analysis: Jacob Cook (2021 Klamath Union) and Marshall Allen Marshall Allen 6'6" | SG Tillamook | 2022 State OR (2022 Tillamook) are, from the responses we received, the only two players returning who averaged double-doubles last season. It wouldn’t be surprising to see each of them accomplish that again. What’s impressive about the accomplishment is they both stand less than 6-foot-6: Cook is listed at 6-foot-5, while Allen is listed at 6-foot-4.
It wouldn’t be surprising to see Jacob Marr (2021 Elmira) capture the rebounding title for the 2021 season. At 6-foot-7 he towers over much of the Sky Em League and narrowly missed averaging a double-double last year. Jude Ashpole Jude Ashpole 6'4" | SF Gladstone | 2021 State OR (2021 Gladstone) could also be a contender. He has solid size at 6-foot-5 and the willingness to really bang down low despite the fact he’ll be more of a wing at the college level.
Expect the rebounding numbers of Ty May Ty May 6'6" | PF Philomath | 2023 State OR (2023 Philomath) to rise. The 6-foot-6 forward made an immediate impact as a freshman and as he continues to build experience and strength, his statistics should only increase. And perhaps the most surprising guy on the list is Carson Molan Carson Molan 6'4" | SG Cascade | 2021 State OR (2021 Cascade) simply because of the fact he’s the team’s starting point guard. The senior is a gritty competitor who simply tries to get around the ball as much as possible.
