Super excited for everything to come together tonight!
Pleased to say that 31 coaches from 27 colleges attended Tuesday night's inaugural Twin Cities Senior Expo. With the help of many generous people, we created a non-profit event for city-area seniors to network with college bball programs. There will definitely be a "next year"!
This year's MVP award goes to co-winners
@GideonCooper23
(Fridley) and
@Chanmalith1
(John Marshall) 🏆
The award is named after Matt McCollister, a huge advocate for Twin Cities basketball who is missed very much. He helped get the Expo going in its inaugural year.

Ellis Todd is a notable sleeper prospect in 2022. Hampered by injuries and other setbacks, he garnered the attention of several colleges on Tuesday night. He's definitely hungry to work.
@Ellis_todd23
Both McNeal twins — Carmello and Carrington — are putting on muscle and stand about 6-3 now. Each one had shining moments Tuesday night and carry high GPAs above 3.5.

Another senior we wanted to highlight from Tuesday is
@jumarion_weh
. A big part of Mpls South's state tourney run, he averaged 18 PPG this winter. This 6-foot skilled guard's phone # is in his bio.
Devin Newsome is one of the most skilled guards in the 2022 class! Highlights of the 6'1 unsigned senior at the

Karon Abdullah — one of the springiest prospects Tuesday night, he's weighing opportunities at the D3 level as well as recently D2. Among the best MPLS city guards this year.

had to be one of the biggest stock-risers this winter. ⬆️ College coaches can see him in person at the TC Senior Expo on Tuesday night.
He is not afraid to dunk in traffic, and he's one of the top uncommitted forwards in the state. Check out
@jamaridwalker
Tuesday night at the Twin Cities Senior Expo.
A reserve call-up, Irondale's Obinna Izuora got to the game with just 1 hour notice! He's a late bloomer with pace, confidence and a smooth game. D3s should definitely get in touch.

Maxsamus Wilson put up 19 points and was dropping dimes last night in a win for Minneapolis North! Highlights of the 6'3 2023 guard

@undscvrdshwcse
Every year we get 100+ college coaches from Juco, NAIA, D2 and D3 in one gym, to watch the best unsigned seniors in Chicago.
The event is FREE for all:
Jamari's recruitment took a step up after this event. He's getting national juco attention after outlets like Fresh Coast highlighted his motor and finishing ability.
Makieth Deng of Coon Rapids brings a 6-7 frame along with ball skills and high upside. Put some weight on him, and he's a physically imposing player. He ran up and down Tuesday night and showed his wingspan.

Quyavant Douglas dropped 37 points last night for Brooklyn Center! The senior guard is the 2nd leading scorer in Minnesota averaging 31 ppg this season

Communication, Hustle on offense and defense, off-ball movement, shot selection. Most Kids this day and age are so caught up with scoring that they forget about all of the little and hard things that come with the game.

brought his PPG from around 2 his junior year to 15.9 as a senior. Colleges will get a closer look at his game Tuesday night at the Twin Cities Senior Expo.
