Tobe Awaka Tobe Awaka 6'8" | PF Cardinal Hayes | 2022 State NY Cardinal Hayes
Commitment: Tennessee
Our preseason #1 finally got the attention he deserved. No offense, to low and mid majors who were recruiting him early but this is a major talent. Add in the high GPA. Coach Barnes got a real good one. Tobe has a tremendous frame that will only get stronger with the strength and conditioning programs that come with college basketball. He has a Giannis type frame. Led Cardinal Hayed to a national ranking. They were deprived a state title only because of the cancellation of the state tournament.
Promise Opurum Woodstock Academy
Commitment: New Hampshire
Promise went to Woodstock after being at New Rochelle. He developed very nicely at the prep school. He is a long armed physical rebounder. He consistently finishes around the rim. Excellent at catching the ball in traffic.An explosive leaper should be a major contributor for New Hampshire from the time he gets on campus.
Noah Best
Noah
Best
6'5" | PG
Mount St Michael | 2022
State
NY
Mount St Michael
Commitment: Fordham
Another CHSAA player who will be staying home. The future Fordham Ram is going to make the Rose Hill Campus very happy. Noah has a tremendous skill set. He is a outstanding passer. Court awareness and vision is excellent. He can score from multiple spots on the floor. Drives the ball with skill and determination.
Joel Baez Joel Baez 6'4" | SG Archbishop Stepinac | 2022 State NY Stepinac
Commitment: Pace (D2)
A big get here for Pace. Joel is a player that you have to really watch to see everything he brings to the game. Every time I saw him he showed another level to his game. An excellent rebounder swooping in off the wing. He has good lift on his jumper. Drives the ball off the wing with a quick first step off the catch.
Jaquel Morris. Eagle Academy Brooklyn
Commitment : Miami Ohio
Jaquel is a long, above the rim player. He is extremely hard to guard in the post because of his length. Not afraid of contact inside. Can finish in traffic. The MAC is known for tough inside play and the Red Hawks have a player who will mix it up on both ends of the floor.
Adam Dudzinski Loomis Chafee (West Genesee HS)
Commitment: St Rose (D2)
Adam took a year of prep and now will be headed to a very good D2 program at St Rose. He was looking to strengthen his body. He is a long stretch 4 player. Can put the ball on the deck and score inside. He is a creative scorer on the drive for a 6”8 player. Has outstanding three point ball range. A nice fit for both the player and the program.
Ryan Dunn Perkioman school (Long Island Lutheran)
Commitment: Virginia
Ryan committed to Virginia last year while still going to Perkioman. He brings a lot of high school winning to the perennial winner, university of Virginia. The Cavaliers stress defense and Ryan is an excellent defender. He uses his length to get his hands into passing lanes. Can turn defense into offense quickly. Really good shooter from three but also has a nice pull up jumper. Anxious to see Ryan next season with the Cavs.
