Team Camp 1st Timers

<p>The Hofstra team camp gave us a great opportunity to see some new faces.</p> <p><strong>Richie Montalvo.    5”11     2026       Island Trees</strong></p> <p>The eight grader showed confidence to shoot it. Excellent at the catch and shoot. Also scores through contact.</p> <p><strong>Joe Mainente.        6”0.       2025.      Island Trees</strong></p> <p>Outstanding defender. A slasher type player. Gets to the rim and finishes,</p> <p><strong style="font-size: 1rem; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">Billy Murphy            5”10.      2023        Deer Park.</strong><strong><br /> </strong></p> <p>Tough fearless player. Can shoot it off the catch. </p> <p><strong>Tommy Synder       6”5         2024          St Anthonys</strong></p> <p>High basketball IQ. Big man who knows how to play the post. Good footwork enables him to score inside. He is a presence in the lane on the defensive end.</p> <p><strong>Caleb Aurelian         6”3          2023        St Anthonys</strong></p> <p>When Caleb is on the floor he is usually guarding the opposing teams best player.
