And Then You Have My Personal Favorite In The Alamo City Finale Ethan Cardona. I Wish More Players That Dream of Playing College Ball Would Take a Page Out of Ethan’s Book! He Plays With a Genuine Passion And Love for the Game and Plays to His Maximum Potential. Stats Won’t Indicate His Worth This Year On a Senior Heavy Wagner Team that Is Loaded with Talent In the Backcourt. But I Guarantee He Will Make a Lot of Winning Plays That Won’t Go Unnoticed By His HS Coaching Staff & Teammates This Year Included Bringing It Daily to Practices. That’s What It Used To Be About, Should Be About, And Will Always Lead To The Outcome You Want! STAR IN YOUR ROLE & Help Your Team Win And When Ethan's # Is Called He Will Be Ready. It Make Take Until His Sr Season To Truly Shine, But It's Only a Matter of Time With His Heart, Drive And Determination He Brings To Every Possession!

Cooper

Point Guard
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Strong Combo Guard Who Took Advantage of the Small Group Setting Designed To Discover College Level Talent, and Won The Day By Competing from Start to Finish. Cooper Was the Only 2028 To Finish on ‘Top’ and as the Camp Got Tougher Coop Got Tougher. Being Home Schooled His Freshman Season, and Not Playing on one of the More Known Select Programs Cooper Heads Into His Sophomore Year Flying Under The Radar. That Will Change As He Makes The Transition To One of the Top Programs In CTX Year End and Year Out (Lake Travis) Tough Minded Combo Set to have a Breakthrough Season!

Point Guard
Height:

Evaluation:
Mike is a Big Guard that Can Play the 1-3 Positions on Offense and Guard the 1-3 on Defense with his Length, Athleticism and Versatility. Does a Great Job Getting Downhill In Transition and Finishing Through Contact in the Paint. Has a High Basketball IQ, Plays with Good Pace and has a High Ceiling with Time on his Side to Continue To Move Up College Coaches Boards. On Top of that, Mike is in the Top 10% of his Class and Checks all the Boxes outside of being Talented. 2027 To Get On Your Recruits To Watch List this Season as He is Set to have a Breakthrough Year at Ft Bend Elkins.

D'Angelo
Durosier
2028
Combo Guard
Height:
Weight:
Evaluation:
De’Angelo Plays the PG Strictly Due To Being By Far the Most Talented Guard On His HS Team, But His True Position vs Higher Level Comp is a Combo or Off Guard. Scores It in a Variety of Ways, But Is At His Best When He Gets Downhill In Transition, Attacks The Paint And Finishes Plays In FB Situations. His Shot Mechanics Are Good And Has Time On His Side with a Good Release to Improve His 3pt FG % Moving Forward. Once He Adds That To His Game, He's Going To Be a Tough Matchup For Opposing Teams with His Playmaking Ability And Speed. He Does a Good Job of Drawing Contact When Getting In The Paint and Shoots a High % from The FT Line. The Foundation, Talent And Toughness Is There With 3 Years To Grow His Game To Move Onto College Boards Heading Into The Select Season. Class of 2028 That Finished On 'Top' In Two Camps And His Best Is Still To Come...
Projected Levels: N/A - To Early To Project With His Upside And Work Ethic (Early Lead On An Under Rated 2028 Deemed a College Level Recruit By Coaches On Staff at the Houston Camp)

Jeremiah
Gomez
2027
Point Guard
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Jeremiah is a Hidden Talent down in South TX that has Finished on 'Top' 3 Times Which Is Not Easy To Do. It's One Thing to Show Well in the South TX Camp, But When Jeremiah Finished on 'Top' In Houston That is when I can see this kid's Potential to be a College Level Lead Guard. He Consistently Brings all the Traits You Look for in PG's to the Floor! He communicates, competes at a high level, and constantly is leading others making everyone around him better. It's one thing to talk, but when you back it up with your actions others will follow and Jeremiah backs it up with his Effort and His Consistent Play on Both Ends. Solid Small College PG that is flying under the Radar only due to playing in an Under Recruited Region.

Ricky
Groff
2027
Forward
Height:
6'8

Weight:
Evaluation:
Not Sure What Position Ricky Truly Is at the Next Level, But I’m Sure That He Is a College Level Recruit With 2 Years To Continue To Grow His Game. He's Grown a Few Inches Since Last Spring When I First Evaluated Him at the CTX Camp. Had a Guards Skill Set at 6'6, Now He's Pushing 6'8 With The Same Ability To Make Plays Out of the High Post, Knocks Down Shots at a High % In Pick N Pop Action And Is Set To Have a Breakthrough Junior Year And Will Continue To Rise in The Ranks in the Class of 2027. Solid Stretch 4 with a High Basketball IQ, Mixes It Up In The Paint, And Does a Good Job Pursuing Boards Especially On the Offensive End Which Will Not Go Unnoticed In The Spring. Talented 2027 That Competes On Both Ends, And Has The Skill Set at 6'8 To Be a True 4 at the Next Level Which Will Start To Draw Interest From The Scholarship Levels

Cason
Hall
2027
Combo Guard
Height:
6'1
173
Weight:
Evaluation:
Physical Strong Combo That Is at his Best Getting Downhill and Finishing Through Contact or Finding the Open Man. Defensively, has the speed and size that translates to the next level, he just needs to play harder for longer Stretches on the Defensive End to Move Up Coaches Boards. When Cason was Applying On Ball Pressure, He Really Stood Out and kept Opposing Guards Uncomfortable without getting beat off the Bounce. Elite On Ball Defender, Big Guard That Creates his Own Shot or Finds the Open Teammate When He Gets In the Paint, and Has Plenty of Time To Grow His Game and Move Up College Coaches Boards This Year at Houston Second Baptist. 2027 To Get On Your Radar As His Best Ball Is Clearly In Front of Him...

Elijah
Sommers
2027
Playmaker
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Elijah is a Small Forward That Has The Ability To Play Both Inside And Out. Has Good Hands In The Paint, Keeps the Ball High And Finishes Around The Rim at a High %. Has Good Shot Mechanics And Release When He Gets The FT Line So Demanding The Ball More On The Block Will Lead To More FT Attempts. So Demanding The Ball Down Low And Catching In His Spots Will Lead To More FT Attempts At 6'7 Elijah Has The Foundation To Be a Really Good Stretch 4 With His Skill Set And Size. Pursues Boards, Runs The Floor And Does a Good Job Altering Shots In Defensive Situations. Played a Big Role Last Year On a Senior Laden Southwest Team, And Is Stepping Into Being A Key Piece This Year And Expect Big Things As Elijah Is Set To Have a Breakthrough Season. Class of 2027 SF To Get On Your List of Recruits To Watch!

Tim
Springer
2027
Combo Guard
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Skilled Combo Guard Who Continues To Look Better and Better Every Single Camp He Attends! No Question He Has Always Been Able to Put Up Points In Bunches and Shoots the '3' at a High %, but He Is Heading Into his Jr Season Leading and Defending at a Much Higher Level Which Will Start To Draw Genuine Interest from College Coaches. He’s Been Putting In Work and His Game is Growing Every Time I Evaluate Tim at a Camp. 2027 Set to Have a Breakthrough Season as the Lead Guard on a Very Good SA Johnson Team That Can Make Another Deep Playoff Run in 2025-2026.

2 Guard
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Zavian Won The Day And Won Over The College Coaches in the DFW Camp. Was 1 of 2 Players Listed By The 4 College Coaches On Staff As a Scholarship Level Combo Guard With 2 Years To Grow. As The Day Went On, Zavian Not Only Started To Show His Skill He Took Over In Session One and Willed His Team To Wins In Some of The Tougher Segments of the Camp. 3 Level Scorer That Plays With Tremendous Effort, Is Vocal On Both Ends, and Scored It in a Variety of Ways. Deceptive Athlete With Size, Length and The Skill Set To Move Onto Scholarship Level Boards Over the Course of the Season. Early Lead On a College Level Combo in the 2027 Class!
