Grassroots Preview: Machine Elite
Here is a look at the Machine Elite 17U team:
Roster
Romello Ball 5’8″ Parkway Central
Admad Burks 5’9″ Jennings
Ben Coughlin 5’10” Rockwood Summit
Collin Goodwin 5’10” DeSmet
Dallas King 6’0″ Webster Groves
Evan Mulhauser 6’7″ Lutheran South
Gregory Robinson 6’4″ Pattonville
Jeramy Shaw 6’4″ Valley Park
Eric Walker 6’0″ Hazelwood Central
Grant Western 5’10” DeSmet
Braden Wiggs 6’6″ St. Charles
Outlook: The Machine Elite started the season off in excellent fashion with a Silver Division championship at the Prep Hoops Route 66 Showdown in Oklahoma City. A big addition to the team is athletic 6’4″ wing Jeramy Shaw, who was an Class 3 All–State selection at Valley Park. Another big addition to the low post is 6’6″ forward Braden Wiggs of St. Charles. There is good perimeter shooting with Ben Coughlin and Dallas King and plenty of quickness with Ball, Burks and Goodwin while Robinson is a nice athlete.
