Emezie Egeonu | 6’6 | Parkville
Egeonu generated a fair share of Division III interest throughout league play. He’s a 6-foot-6 workhorse with good footwork operating on the block or in face-up scenarios. He proved to be a capable shot-maker from the 13-to-15 feet. Whether it was on the offensive or defensive end, his aggressive mindset put him in position to grab rebounds by the boatload. I see Egeonu being a prospect who several Division III programs pursue this winter.
Connor Harris Connor Harris 6'5" | SF St. Mary's | 2022 State MD | 6’6 | St. Mary’s
Harris is a 6-foot-6 forward with a nice frame that should help him translate smoothly for a good Division III program. He utilizes that strength and frame to bully his way around the rim and finish with soft touch. He understands his role on this St. Mary’s team and fills it by setting sound screens, converting around the basket and holding down the glass on the defensive end.
Audric Washington | 6’6 | St. Mary’s
Washington wasn’t a guy that lit up the scoring column, but he plays a vital role for St. Mary’s off the bench where he provides energy and communication as the anchor defensively. He possesses solid fundamentals on his catches on the block and has a good feel as a passer in said scenarios.
Cesar Tchilombo Cesar Tchilombo 6'9" | C John Carroll | 2022 State MD | 6’8 | John Caroll
Tchilombo was by far the best big in the league. His elite shot-blocking prowess and ability to finish rim-rocking dunks were on display every time he took the floor. He even hinted at some development of a three-point shot as the trailer in transition. I’ve seen Tchilombo first-hand shoot three’s in practice and make them with regularity. If he’s able to show off this ability this season at John Carroll, it’d result in more Division I schools getting involved with his recruitment.
