It will definitely be a game to watch.

Liberty Heights (NC) vs. Balboa (CA)

East Coast faces off against the West Coast as Liberty Heights (NC) plays against Balboa (CA) on Day 2. Liberty Heights is led by a host of 2020s in Jemal Davis, Kam Edwards, Tay Williams and Kahari Rogers. Balboa's trio of Deshaun Cooper, E.J. Neal and Solomon Little will have their hands full against an experienced group.

2020 Forward, Kai Kueper, Middleburg

Kai Kueper is an emerging forward prospect that's turning heads at Middleburg Academy. He's a 6-foot-8 forward that can stretch the floor with his shooting and be active in the post. He holds an offer from Clarion University.

2021 Guard, Jaden House, Middleburg

Half of the explosive backcourt for Middleburg Academy is 2021 guard Jaden House. He's a 6-foot-4 guard that can score it on all three levels. House holds offers from Georgetown, James Madison, Mount St. Mary's, Howard, Old Dominion and Stetson.

2021 Guard, Isaiah Folkes, Middleburg

Isaiah Folkes is the other half of Middleburg's talented backcourt. He's a 6-foot-3 guard that's slowly made a name for himself this season and drawing the attention of some D1 programs. Folkes has offers from Georgetown, William & Mary, Elon, Lehigh, James Madison, Radford, Stetson, Norfolk State, Old Dominion and Youngstown State.

2020 Guard, Koby Brea, Monsignor Scanlan

Davidson bound guard Koby Brea is a prospect that can fill it up from all three levels at the shooting guard position. He can operate off the dribble and off the catch and should turn heads with his play for Monsignor Scanlan.

2020 Forward, Max Brooks, St. Charles

Max Brooks is a recent UMass-Lowell commit that has St. Charles off to a 6-0 record. They'll look to remain undefeated with Brooks leading the way with his 15.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.8 steals per contest.

2020 Guard, Tremaine Chelsey, St. Charles

Tremaine Chelsey is a top-notch defender for St. Charles that can also fill it up with efficiency shooting the ball. He'll be a prospect to watch on both ends with his ability to make an impact.

2022 Guard, Amir Dade, St. Charles

2022 guard Amir Dade is young but don't let his year fool you. He's a versatile, floor general that's well beyond his 2022 classification with his playmaking and rebounding ability. 

2021 Guard, Cameron Edmonds, Western Branch

Junior guard Cameron Edmonds currently has Western Branch off to a 5-2 start. Edmonds is a heady guard at 6-foot-2 that can score the ball and distribute to his playmakers. He'll be a young guard in the Western Branch backcourt to watch.

2021 Forward, Bobby Johnson, Western Branch

Bobby Johnson is a prospect with a flat-out motor for Western Branch at 6-foot-2. He uses his strength well to get to the rim on the interior and finish and is due to make waves at the 2019 Governor's Challenge.

2022 Guard, Efrem Johnson, Western Branch

2022 guard Efrem Johnson is a prospect on the rise at Western Branch. Johnson is a wiry guard that can get to the rim and knock it down from behind the arc. He's a 6-foot-4 prospect to watch on the wing.
