Justice Mims (2022)| 6”2 PG| 3.9 GPA| All OAA| 3 Year Captain who is now gaining attention from a number of college programs due to his performance this summer at team camps. Absolute workhorse and one of the best young men you will ever meet.
Proud of you
@georgegurraj
- College coaches lookout for a 6”6 young 2020 (16 yrs old) who is skillful, plays above the rim, and can defend multiple positions. Stay posted as his game continues to expand.

College coaches take a look at Jon Ursuy 6’7 Forward 2022 with a 3.96 GPA. He will be one of the best forwards in the state & OAA Red his senior year. Constantly going at quality D1/D2 scholarship guys and winning. Please message for full game film/stats.
Rochester Adams 2022 Gunner Walters is a heck of a player that can hurt you in several ways.
He talked to The D Zone about playing in a close game like this and how they were able to win it.
