Beau Hartman CG 6’0 2024 Sunnyslope (Firestorm Black)
The crafty guard got to the mid range nicely and showed a consistent 3 ball all weekend. He also made sure that he kept his teammates involved dropping many assists.
Christian Rubio SF 6’0 2024 Verrado (Team Zona)
Although undersized Rubio doesn’t mind banging with the big fellas. He showed a nice touch around the rim while also showing good fundamentals.
Blake Carabio PG 6’0 2024 Ironwood (Team Zona)
The point guard showed a nose for the ball on both sides of the ball. He also displayed a nice pull up jumper. He also showed a deceptively quick handle over the weekend.

The point guard got to the rim and to his spots at will. His passing was on display as every team keyed on the New Mexico standout. He repeatedly dropped dimes to open teammates and played great defense per usual.

The active wing was a terror on both ends of the court. He was hard to keep out of the paint and consistently knocked down 3’s all weekend. He was among the leaders in steals in the gold division.
Patrick Murtagh CG 6’1 2024 Washington (Firestorm Black)
The tough guard got his teammates involved and showed deep range on his jumper. He shows good upside.
