Jeremiah Godfrey Jeremiah Godfrey 6'7" | PF Great Crossing | 2024 State KY , Great Crossing – If you watch Great Crossing play, it’s easy to overlook Godfrey because of the loaded Warhawk roster but his game has started to make major strides in the last month. At 6’6, Jeremiah is a good athlete who is still getting his coordination and footwork down. He has set career highs in points twice in the last two weeks and his stock is trending way up.
Jackson Washington Jackson Washington 6'2" | SG Christian Academy Of Louisville | 2024 State KY , CAL – The term “elite” gets tossed around way too often these days but I’m willing to say that BB is a elite when it comes to catch and shoot threes. The younger brother of Ohio State commit GW3, Washington is shooting 53% from deep and has a lightning quick release when he gets a clean look at the rim. If he gets as effective attacking the rim as his older brother is then he’ll start attracting the same type of recruiting before long.
MJ Wardlow, Bowling Green – There is a youth movement for the Purples this season and Wardlow looks to be the best of this bunch of underclassmen. MJ checks all the boxes on the score sheet as he does a little bit of everything for BG. He scores, rebounds and defends well and he is able to get buckets from all areas of the court.
Aden Barnett Aden Barnett 6'1" | SG Magoffin County | 2024 State KY , Magoffin County – Originally a 2023, Aden moved to 2024 this summer and continues to be among the top scorers in Kentucky. Averaging 25 points per game this season, Barnett recently went over 2,000 career points and is on a trajectory to score as many as 4,000 points in his career if he continues on his current pace. At 6’2, Aden is a bully guard who can finish over about anyone.
