Cooper Francis (Salisbury): An athletic 6’3 wing who has led the Panthers to a 14-2 record. He’s a very skilled southpaw with a motor to match. He can attack the rim well and he can knock down 3-pointers. After missing last year’s Final Four run with a knee injury, he has the Panthers back among the top teams in Class 2. The kid has game.
Ashton Jermain (Raymore-Peculiar): After seeing varsity minutes as a freshman last season, the 5’9 point guard has worked his way into a more prominent role this season. He is averaging 13 points a game while shooting 50 percent from 3-point range.
Jace Whatley (Ozark): The 6’5 forward has emerged as an inside threat to compliment his talented older brother Ethan. He’s a hustler and scrapper who really goes to battle on the boards. He’s also a solid defender who will block a shot.
Barron Duda (Webb City): The 6’0 guard is one of the top young perimeter shooters in the SWMO area. His shooting stroke is nice and easy and he lets it fly with confidence. He hits about ;0 percent from distance and he has a nice feel for the game as well. He is averaging eight points a game for an excellent Webb City team.
Isaiah Bonaparte Isaiah Bonaparte 5'10" | PG Hickman | 2024 State MO (Hickman): A young point guard who I saw at the Coaches vs Cancer Holiday Tournament and was very impressed with his poise. He’s quick, but under control when he’s on the move. He has slick penetrating moves and he sees the court well.
Colin DeBold Colin DeBold 6'5" | CG Seckman | 2024 State MO 6’3″ Seckman: A slim combo guard from South St. Louis who has made a positive impact on a much improved Seckman team. He is an excellent passer with a good feel for the game. He is currently averaging 12 points, three rebounds and three assists a game.
