Let’s take a glance at some of the players from the western side of the state that will be suiting up!
Southpoint HS 6’7 Forward Ayden Baker led his team to a record of 10-4 while averaging 23 Points & 3 Rebounds per contest. He took a nice step in his production and grew as a leader for his team this season which would eventually lead to him being recruited for a spot at North Grenville University.
Weddington HS 6’0 Guard Brock Bowen Brock Bowen 5'11" | CG Weddington | 2021 State NC won’t blow you away with his stats but if you watch him live, you can see how important he is to any squad he plays on. He’s one of those players that competes every possession, contributes in multiple ways and does whatever it takes to help his team win.
Ardrey Kell 6’3 Guard Knoah Carver Knoah Carver 6'2" | SF Charlotte Country Day | 2021 State NC had an impressive season, averaging over 16 points per game while almost reaching the 40/50/90 club for shooting percentages from the field, three point land and free throws. He understands how to get to the paint at a pretty high rate and doesn’t shy away from the big moments in games. Will be attending Brewster Academy next season which should allow him to boost his recruitment and continue to prepare for the college level.
Grimsley HS 6’4 Senior Forward Daniel Cooper Daniel Cooper 6'4" | SF Grimsley | 2021 State NC brings some scoring and rebounding to the team after averaging 20 Points & 10 Rebounds this season. He gets after it on both ends of the floor and although he’s not the tallest , he doesn’t allow himself to get outworked by opponents.
North Mecklenburg Forward Chris Ford Chris Ford 6'5" | SF North Mecklenburg | 2021 State NC put together an outstanding high school career which finished with him scoring over 1,000 Points & pulling down over 8 rebounds. He helped lead his squad to a regional championship game appearance, averaging 19 Points & 9 Rebounds throughout the season, consistently contributing on both ends of the floor and will take his talents to Davidson College next year.
Providence Grove Jonathan Foust Jonathan Foust 6'4" | SF Providence Grove | 2021 State NC put together an impressive season, taking home conference player of the year honors, using his impressive athleticism to make plays on both ends of the floor. For the season he averaged 19 Points & 12 Rebounds per game, as well as displaying outstanding leadership qualities throughout the year, he’s signed to play college basketball at Davidson County Community College next year.
Ardrey Kell Forward Peyton Gerald Peyton Gerald 6'8" | PF Ardrey Kell | 2021 State NC is a prospect that catches your attention almost immediately, he’s 6’9 with plenty of potential to be a very special player on the next level. The defensive side of the ball is where he was the most impressive this season, blocking and altering shots, coming up with deflections and even taking charges. During his senior season he averaged 13 Points ,7 Rebounds & 2 blocks while helping his team reach the state championship before falling to Millbrook HS.
North Buncombe Forward Caleb Lominac is smaller than your typical Forward but don’t let the height fool you, he’s a strong player that doesn’t mind mixing it up with taller players and is productive. This season he averaged 16 Points, 11 Rebounds and over 2 blocks per game making the decision to play at UVA Wise next season which is a NCAA D2 program.
Reidsville HS Guard Breon Pass Breon Pass 6'1" | PG Reidsville | 2021 State #193 Nation NC doesn’t need much introduction, if you have watched any high school basketball or football over the last few years, he has been on countless highlights, dominating both sports. Pass is a stat sheet stuffer that averaged 32 Points, 12 Rebounds, 5 Assist & 2 Steals this year which is even more impressive when you consider the fact that he’s only about 6’2 and all this was accomplished while leading his team to a 12-2 record.
Southern Alamance Forward Grant Thompson is a fundamentally sound 6’5 prospect that showcased his ability to score and rebound the ball at a nice rate. Throughout the season he was productive, especially when making plays from the high post or inside the paint which seems to be the spots he’s most comfortable on the court. For the season he averaged 23 Points, 10 Rebounds per game and is a player that we feel could make a nice impact at a smaller college.
