Quincy Townsend Quincy Townsend 6'2" | CG Mountain View | 2024 State OR (2024 Mountain View)
Playing as much off the ball as he was playing on it, Townsend moved well on the court. He was sharp with his outside shooting, especially in the first game where he caught fire from long range on a number of catch-and-shoot opportunities.
Jacey Canalin Jacey Canalin 5'7" | PG Wells | 2024 State OR (2024 Wells)
Canalin didn’t get to handle the ball as much as we’re used to seeing but he made the most out of his touches and sank some open threes. Where he made the most impact though was on the defensive end as he harassed opposing ball-handlers and used his quick hands to create turnovers and grab steals.
Marley Zeller Marley Zeller 6'5" | SF Central Catholic | 2024 State OR (2024 Central Catholic)
Zeller was able to show some of the inside-outside skills that along with his size, make him an intriguing wing prospect. He was active in the paint getting his hands on rebounds and putbacks and was also able to knock down some shots off of the dribble.
Vashon Hardges Vashon Hardges 6'2" | CG Grant | 2024 State OR (2024 Grant)
As always, Hardges brought plenty of energy to the table and really looked to attack the basket whenever he got the chance. He was able to convert a few baskets on his own but was especially effective drawing the defense and kicking it out to open teammates for opportunities.
Jackson Owens Jackson Owens 6'3" | CG Cleveland | 2024 State OR (2024 Cleveland)
Owens is a good athlete and was able to use his leaping ability and motor to be active on the boards. He ran the floor well and was able to hit a few of his patented floaters in the lane.
Quinn Haveman Quinn Haveman 6'3" | SG Mountainside | 2024 State OR (2024 Mountainside)
We didn’t get to see Haveman a lot and he was also placed on a team of younger players which seemed to lack cohesion. Nevertheless, he brought good energy to the table especially on the defensive side of the basketball.
