6'0 PG Cathedral HS, Indianapolis, IN

Article on Justin King's new varsity coach, Cole Schomaker.  If I remember correctly, he coached some really fun up-tempo teams at Sandoval a few years back.  Should be a good fit with Mascoutah's athletes.

6-2 PG from Tuscola, IL, Illinois Wolves

From Prephoops' evaluation of Illinois Wolves scrimmages August 23:

" Quinn was fantastic in this game against older competition.  The central Illinois point guard is electric with the ball in his hands with his creative finishes, euro steps, and shifty handles.  His burst getting to the cup is excellent.  Went coast to coast in transition several times.  Also a solid spot up shooter that drilled a pair from the corner.  Gets after it defensively as well often getting steals and taking them the other way for scores."

Good article on Quinn.

6'6 forward from Oak Forest, IL

From a couple of recent articles I read about Avila, he's now listed at 6'9" and 215 lbs.
