As the 2025–26 season approaches, several rising seniors are set to elevate their games and put themselves firmly on the radar of college coaches. These prospects bring skill, toughness, and the intangibles that translate well to the next level.
6’0 Lincoln Raper – Concord Academy
Raper brings a perfect mix of playmaking and perimeter shooting to the floor. A crafty ball-handler, he operates with pace, vision, and poise, rarely forcing the action. He can score in a variety of ways but is just as comfortable making the right reads and creating for teammates. His efficiency and calm demeanor allow him to control the tempo and set the tone each game. With his all-around impact and steady leadership, Raper is poised for a standout senior campaign that will keep him firmly on the radar of college coaches.
6’4 Jack Seigel – Charlotte Catholic
Jack Seigel has established himself as one of the most reliable and versatile guards. He consistently delivers with elite shooting ability, boasting smooth mechanics and deep range that stretch defenses. Beyond his jumper, Seigel is a polished scorer who finishes effectively—especially off two feet—and creates matchup problems with his size, handle, and three-level scoring. He operates well within the offense, making smart reads and efficient decisions, while still applying steady scoring pressure. A true all-around shotmaker and creator, Seigel’s impact on both ends makes him a key piece for Charlotte Catholic heading into his senior season.
6’0 Deshawn Coulter – Victory Christian
Deshawn Coulter has been a clear standout, showcasing his craftiness and playmaking ability as a guard. He’s been lethal from behind the arc, consistently knocking down perimeter shots with confidence. Coulter also attacks the basket cleanly, finishing well in transition and providing a spark for his team’s offense. With his combination of outside shooting, ability to create for others, and knack for pushing the tempo, Coulter has established himself as a dynamic guard who can impact the game in multiple ways.
6’2 Dashaun McKoy – Harrells Christian
Dashaun McKoy is a high-energy, athletic guard who consistently makes winning plays. He thrives on finishing at the rim, rebounding, and defending with toughness, while also bringing highlight-reel moments with his explosiveness. McKoy’s ability to create off the bounce and attack the basket sets him apart, as he uses his athleticism to generate consistent scoring opportunities. With his versatility, effort, and ability to impact the game on both ends, McKoy projects as a valuable utility guard with clear next-level potential.
6’4 Henry Smith – Marvin Ridge
Henry Smith has been a steady, reliable presence for Marvin Ridge, using his strength to attack straight-line drives and battle on the boards against bigger defenders. His competitive nature stands out, consistently doing the dirty work to help his team succeed. Scrappy and physical, Smith impacts the game with his rebounding, toughness, and effort on both ends of the floor.
6’5 6’2 Bryan Little – Piedmont
Bryan Little plays bigger than his size, using strength and effort to dominate the paint and the glass. He’s a consistent force around the rim, excelling at boxing out, rebounding, and battling for 50/50 balls. Defensively, he provides energy as a weak-side helper with blocks and pressures the ball to force tough passes, giving Piedmont a physical edge on both ends.
