Kaamil “KJ” Jackson

Kaamil “KJ” Jackson

Kaamil “KJ” Jackson boasts exceptional athleticism. His length and agility make him a formidable presence on both ends of the court. Offensively, Jackson’s game is smooth, and his above-the-rim play appears effortless. Jackson’s offensive arsenal is well-rounded, featuring a solid mid-range game, impressive ball-handling skills, and the ability to finish through contact.

Tayt Lucas Tayt Lucas 6'3" | CG Butler | 2025 PA is a top shooter in Class 6A. He is the type of player that stretches the floor and opens up opportunities for others. He’s a solid defender who isn’t afraid to be physical. Lucas’s performances in the AAU circuit have been impressive. This level of production against quality competition has already attracted attention from D3 schools, with offers starting to accumulate.

Ryan Priester Ryan Priester 6'4" | SF Seneca Valley | 2026 PA has been having a huge summer with Caveman AAU. His game is anchored by his shooting. He has good range and a quick release. Priester demonstrates a high basketball IQ through his off-ball movement. His understanding of how to create space and get open without the ball speaks to his game awareness. While Priester’s perimeter game is already at a high level, he’s been attacking the rim more frequently this summer.

Ralphie Blundo Ralphie Blundo 6'0" | SG New Castle | 2025 State PA boasts a well-rounded game with a bunch of toughness and basketball intelligence. Blundo’s physical style of play sets the tone for his team and his commitment to winning. He is without a doubt one of the best shooters in Class 6A. That, combined with his ability to drive, makes him a challenging matchup. His decision-making on the court is exceptional. The statistics backup Blundo’s impact — he averaged 23 points per game last season for New Castle.

Talen Geib

Talen Geib

Talen Geib’s offensive game is anchored by his excellent spot-up shooting and deep range. On the defensive end, Geib’s aggressive style creates steals and turnovers. His ability to disrupt passing lanes shows his athleticism and basketball IQ. I see Geib becoming more of a multi-level scoring threat in the upcoming season. Expect him to take on a significant leadership role with McDowell next season.
