Lionel Kumwinba Lionel Kumwinba 6'8" | C Paul Laurence Dunbar | 2022 State KY , Dunbar – Dunbar has been hit hard after Tim Hall transferred and Cade Hilt Cade Hilt 6'2" | CG Paul Laurence Dunbar | 2023 State KY tore his ACL. If there was ever a time for Lionel to become a dependable scoring option, it’s now. Look for Kumwinba to get paint touches early and often for new coach Murray Garvin.
Hunter Coleman Hunter Coleman 6'0" | CG Bullitt Central | 2022 State KY , Bullitt Central – Hunter has been a top name in the 2022 class in the Sixth Region for a couple of years now and is likely to end up averaging 20+ points per game as a Senior. Central is a middle of the pack team in the region but Hunter is capable of carrying them back to the regional tournament again this year.
Hagan Webb Hagan Webb 6'2" | SF Boyle County | 2022 State KY , Boyle County – Son of the head coach, Webb is a glue guy who impacts winning on both ends of the court. Hagan isn’t a headline grabber but he’s a reliable player who does everything necessary to secure the win for the Rebels. If they’re going to get back to Rupp, Webb needs a big Senior season.
Gavin Allen Gavin Allen 6'10" | C Lynn Camp | 2022 State KY , Lynn Camp – One of the biggest Seniors roaming Kentucky, Allen is 6’10 and knows how to use his size around the rim as a scorer and a rim protector on defense. Gavin has been a matchup problem for 13th region foes for a couple of seasons and could make a push to be an all region player during his Senior year.
Samuel Bowling Samuel Bowling 6'2" | CG Glasgow | 2022 State KY , Glasgow – One of the best players in western Kentucky that never gets mentioned, Bowling is a versatile guard/wing with good positional size and athleticism. The Scotties return their top 7 scorers and could be a dark horse contender in the 4th region. Sam could be in the mix for regional player of the year as well.
