Elevation: Stephen Shako 18pts, Kevin Rodriquez 16pts, Kassim Cauley 12pts
Gray: Colt Greer 15pts, Max Poplin 11pts
Standouts:
2027 Kevin Rodriquez (Elevation Prep): Rodriquez did a nice job early on in controlling the game, leading the offense, and picking his spots to attack off the bounce. Found ways to penetrate the defense and score over defenders or make plays for others. In the second half, he showed more of his shot-making ability, playing off the ball and really being a threat from behind the arc.
2026 Colt Greer (Gray Stone): Greer, a 6’5 prospect who has been averaging a double-double, continues to lead the way like he has all season long. He does a nice job in being able to score around the basket, making plays off the dribble, and finishing with a soft touch. But he is one who is also comfortable in facing up, moving around from multiple levels, and using his body to really attack the glass for his team.

SV: Thomas Papazis 18pts, Jaylin Powell 18pts, Noah McKinney 16pts
King: Sean Gere 29pts, Ty Gorman 12pts, James Phillips 10pts
Standouts:
2027 Sean Gere (Christ the King): Gere was really impressive with his offensive presence throuhgout the game. Comfortable as a multi-level scorer, Gere was able to be an effective weapon from the perimeter as well as attacking. He has a smooth shot from outside, moving well wihtout the ball and a fluid shot overall. But did a great job in picking his spots to attack and penetrate the defense, finishing well around defenses and not settling.
2026 Jaylin Powell (Sun Valley): Powell was one of many standouts that could have made this list, but he was the one that really stood out and led the comeback. In the second half, Powell was able to use his size and scoring to his advantage, leading the attack on defense and helping create havoc but also stepping up big for his team offensively as a scorer inside and out. Powell was a do-it-all type player for his team that came up big when his team needed.

Parris: Hezekiah Ponder 21pts, Rudy Alexandre 9pts, Sidd Sharma 9pts
Standouts:
2026 Ryan Chen (Bull City Prep): Chen led the charge in this battle out in Davidson Day, as he continuse to show and thrive with his ability to move without the ball, get to his spots, create off the bounce and show touch on his jumper inside the arc, and continue to be a threat from behind the arc. Finishing with 24 points for his team, Chen was able to operate from multiple levels throughout and never losses confidence in his shot.
2026 Hezekiah Ponder (Parris Prep): Ponder was the one that led the charge for Parris Prep, as he was the main creator with the ball in his hands. Watching Ponder operate, he plays with such poise and control for this group, showing patience in picking his spots to attack, makes good overall reads to his teammates, and just has a smooth feel in being able to score the basketball. Ponder does a great job in letting things develop and attacking in what is given to him.
Final
Davidson Day 69 – Lake Norman 40
DD: Nick Arnold 15pts, Will Stevens 13pts, Cody Peck 10pts
LN: Cohen Edwards 11pts, Kyle Gruber 8pts
Standouts:
2026 Nick Arnold (Davidson Day): It was a balanced overall attack from Davidson Day but it was hard to not notice the little things that Arnold did throughout the game. The stingy guard was able to be active in so many ways, truly showing his competitive nature on the court. Offensively, he was able to drive and kick to open teammtes, or finish strong through defenders. Defensively, time after time he was able to create steals, be active and a pest on the ball, and competed well on the glass despite his size.
2028 Cohen Edwards (Lake Norman): Edwards has had a good two weeks under the Phenom platform, really embracing and being assertive with his opportunities. Much like he did last week at the Lakesgiving, Edwards was able to score effectively off the bounce and penetrating the defense, doing a great job in finishing around big defenders controlling the paint. He has really shown the ability to be a scoring factor as a young prospect for this team.
