On The SCENE…
Scotland puts together a dominate opening 13 minutes against Vision Academy (NY), then cruises to victory.
SCOTLAND, PA (GAME RECAP 11.11.21)
Life is usually a little slower in Scotland, Pennsylvania. Far removed from the hustle and bustle of city life, there is a serenity- a sense of calm and peace in Franklin County. That is of course, unless you are an opponent coming to play the national powerhouse Knights. New York City’s Vision Academy found out real quick how fast life can get in the countryside. The Knights nearly deflected every other pass their opponent attempted early on. Scotland used all ninety feet in suffocating fashion to speed up the late arriving Vision Academy. The flawless defensive clinic by Coach Chaney’s team led to a 52 point outburst, while tallying 20+ deflections and 13 steals in only 13 minutes of action. During the span, 5’11 PG Shawn Fulcher (NY) tossed in 17 points, including 4 deflections and 4 steals. While teammates 6’4 G Jaden Alexander (CA) and 6’8 F Halil Barre (NY) combined for 20 points with several aerial displays that would make the Blue Angels envious. Scotland led 63-35 at the half. The trio added only five points in limited action after the intermission to cruise to an 85-62 victory. The Knights were outscored 27-22 during the running clock second half. Vision Academy was led by Brooklyn, NY product Tyshawn Jack’s 11 points.
Prospective Student Athlete Spotlights
Scotland Campus
Jaden Alexander – demonstrated elite athleticism, knocked down the open look and impressed at the defensive end.
Halil Barre – world class athleticism, chest in the rim leaper, with agility, timing and knack for the ball. A few months with Coach Chaney away from a power 5 offer – get in early!!! Stock-Riser.
Shawn Fulcher – created the tone at the defensive end, speed and change of pace make him hard to guard, lived in the lane, creative finisher at the rim.
Johannes Kirsipuu – (6’1, G (Estonia)) – Solid lead guard, facilitates, tight handle and ability to get team into sets, strong leader.
Jaden Pena – (6’4, F (NY)) – absolute workhorse, played with a contagious energy, wirey and physical, makes winning play and rebounds position.
Will Young – (6’3, G (TX)) – defensive specialist, strong-long lanky basketball build w/ ability to disrupt opponents. Defense equals instant offense. Excited to see offensive package in GAC play, didn’t need it in this one.
Vision Academy
Kevin Coleman (6’7 F (PA)) – competed every play, outmanned in paint, active on the glass, rim protected, and impressed against several opponent bodies in lane, showed limited perimeter package on offense- best around the rim, slashing.
Kenyon Elliott (6’4 G (PA)) – best on the wing, played point large segments of game.
Tyshawn Jack (6’6 G (NY)) – bright spot of the day, attacked rim with a vengeance, several above the rim plays at both ends of the floor.
ON THE SCENE: Hoop Group- Future All-American & Elite Camps
FUTURE ALL-AMERICAN
CREME OF THE CROP
Alphabetical Order
Elliott Cadeau
Bergen Catholic (Ordell, NJ)
6’0 Point Guard
First thought after first sight, Cole Anthony-like assassin with the ball in his hands. Pure hooper, leaves defenders in quick sand. Demonstrated explosion off of the floor, range and elite playmaking ability. Passing ability and vision are different.
Justin Edwards
Imhotep(Philadelphia, PA)
6’5 Guard
Justin demonstrated an ability to shoot the ball. Great size, long athletic wing. First step and explosion at the rim separated him from the competition. Skilled with the ball in his hands, able to use length and speed to get into the paint. Slashing/Scoring type… Capable of being an elite defender.
Aaron Goldstein
Xaverian (Brooklyn, NY)
5’10 Guard
Goldstein played his way into the “Creme of the Crop” with relentless effort from the point, dead-eye shooting and a knack for finding teammates in scoring position. He was getting it done off the bounce and looked fluid and confident in catch and shoot situations. Excellent ball screen-awareness/progression, consistently making the right read, leading to offensive production.
Jeremiah Jenkins
Darien (Connecticut)
5’11 Guard
Jenkins demonstrated an ability to do it all consistently at both ends of the floor, as an elite guard. Highly skilled and understand the game and pace. Effective down to his screen setting. He has a profound ability to pass the ball, makes the easy, smart play with the ability to make difficult plays for most his age, look simplistic.
Luke McEldon
Highlands (Warrenton, VA)
6’10 Center
Luke’s presence was felt in the paint all week. Thick frame allowed him to control the lane for his team. He scored around the rim with strength and aggression. Demonstrated an ability to knock down the 12 footer. Reminded me of a young Tre Mitchell if he puts it all together, has the frame to develop.
Toby Ojuwku
Roman Catholic (Philadelphia)
5’9 Guard
Toby put together an excellent week. Demonstrated an ability to score the ball at a high level and was a relentless ball hawk at the other end.
Malachi Palmer ’24
Central Dauphin
6’4 Guard
Silky Smooth with the ball ion his hands. Effective & highly efficient. Makes putting the ball in the basket from all three levels look extremely easy.
Jason Rivera-Torres
Iona Prep, NJ
6’3 Guard
Dominated from the point guard position with sheer size, athleticism and skill. Often the best player on the floor. Jason made shots consistently while always making the proper basketball play. Hugh Upside.
