BOYS Coach’s comment

TUL

Will Essman – Bishop Kelley

A smooth 6’8″ lefty that has deep range. Has really worked on his game off the bounce and scoring inside. A sneaky shot blocker as well!

Shon Lewis – Bixby

Lightning quick and strong guard. Took the job of guarding everyone’s best player last season. One of the top defenders in Tulsa. Just got an offer from McPherson College this week.

Joc Mitchell – Booker T. Washington

Joc is a very explosive athlete with a high IQ. He has the physical tools to score at will, but he is a pass first guy. He has a shifty game, or he can just blow by you and dunk it. He is at his best in the mid-range, but has now added the 3 ball. He can be a nightmare defensively either on the ball or playing the passing lanes.

David “DJ” Howell – Broken Arrow

DJ- 4-year starter who will be relied on to carry the team as he enters his senior year. DJ is an elite passer who enjoys getting his team involved, but make no mistake, he can score the ball as well. DJ stats have improved every year in every category and no one expects to change this season. Division 1 has shown a lot of interest and, that will continue to be the case. Look for his leadership and his play to determine how well the Tigers will finish this year.

Sutton Woods – Catoosa

“Sutton is one of the best shooters in the state. He is a big guard with an solid handle and has a tendency to make a couple passes a game that make you say “”how did you see that””

Sutton currently holds 2 college offers from University of the Ozarks and Southwestern in Kansas.”

–

Aiden Anderson – Collinsville

Aiden is a three year starter who has been a part of two of the three recent State Tournament Teams for Collinsville.

Ryker Buckley – Kellyville

One of the best basketball kids in the state no matter the grade. Ryker’s basketball IQ has helped him understand and control the game at a young age. He will look to add more to his game to help lift his team to new heights this year. Ryker has quickly become a leader on and off the court for the Kellyville boys basketball team.

–

Derek Stokes – Lincoln Christian

Derek Stokes has been a 3 year starter and a 4 year player for our program at Lincoln Christian. He has been our leading scorer for the 3 seasons at LCS. He is a true PG who can score at will or pass to the open guys. He does a great job at putting pressure on the defense and always finds the open guy. He is a leader for us on and off the court. He rallies our guys in those tough situations. His season high last year was 27 on the road in a tough environment! He is closing in on 1000 points for his career. We are looking for him to have a fantastic senior season!

Both young men started every game last year and both are top 40 prospects on Prephoopsok for 2025 and both have scholarship offers for numerous junior colleges with high upside at that level. Great students as well that represent the CHARGER program with Character and Toughness! Great Teammates!

–

Connor Hislop – Victory Christian

“Connor Hislop is widely recognized as one of the best on-ball defenders in the state, and it’s easy to see why. His defensive skills are a perfect blend of quickness, anticipation, and tenacity. Connor possesses lightning-fast reflexes that allow him to stay in front of his opponent, making it difficult for them to get comfortable with the ball.

His ability to read the game is exceptional; he anticipates passes and can disrupt plays before they even develop. Connor uses his footwork and body positioning to force tough shots, often forcing opponents into mistakes. He thrives under pressure, never backing down, and his intensity can be contagious, rallying his teammates to elevate their defensive efforts.

Connor not only excels defensively but also plays a pivotal role in controlling the pace of the game offensively. With an exceptional basketball IQ, he reads the flow of the game and knows when to speed things up or slow them down.

When we’re looking to push the tempo, Connor is the first to initiate fast breaks, utilizing his speed and vision to find open teammates. His precise passing and ability to make quick decisions keep the ball moving, creating high-percentage scoring opportunities.

Conversely, when we need to slow things down and execute a set play, Connor’s calm demeanor and leadership shine. He surveys the court, directing traffic and ensuring everyone is in the right position. His ability to control the pace allows us to dictate the rhythm of the game, making him an invaluable asset on offense”

–

OKC

Aiden Todd – Bethany

Aiden has been our leading scorer, passer, and steals guy the previous two years. He averaged 18 PPG, and 5 APG while being not caught and double teamed in a lot of games. He has an elite handle with a very good ability to get paint touches and make plays for his teammates. He is the hardest worker in the gym and he truly loves the grind. He is a lead by example type with his work ethic. He is a very smart basketball player and the best offensively skilled player I’ve ever coached. He is lethal on ball screens because if you switch, he is too quick for a big to stay in front – if you go under, he will shoot it, and if you double, he will find the open guy.

–

Lukas Wooldridge – Bethany

Lukas is a very skilled wing. can play guard and can bang down low. Can really shoot it and can make 100 in a row if he finds a grove and stays hot in a workout. Has grown a ton in height and athleticism over the past year. Led a 5A Tahlequah team to the state tournament two years ago as a sophomore. Sat behind a couple state champions at Edmond North last year and will have another star season here at Bethany this year. Already holds two college offers and will have more soon.

–

Cooper Bradley – Bishop McGuinness

–

Jaxon Oliver – Blanchard

One of the best point guards in 4A. A lock down defender on the ball, had over 20 player control fouls guarding the ball handler last year. Always guarded a team’s best offensive players.

Not only will he likely be our leading scorer this year, he will likely be one of our best defenders.

–

Creighton is a versatile 6’5″ forward who does so much on the floor. He defends 1-5, rebounds, moves the basketball, scores around the rim, and does a great job getting to the free throw line. He is also our biggest vocal leader on the floor and in the locker room.

Bryce is on his way to

surpassing the 1000 pt career scoring mark at some point this season. Bryce currently holds two offers from Oklahoma City University, and Southwestern (Kansas). Bryce is the hardest working player that I have coached in my 10 years at McLoud.”

Tripp Niles – SW Covenant

Tripp can play inside or outside. Finishes well around the rim but shoots the ball at 39% from 3 point range as well. He draws a lot of double teams every night and has learned to be a good distributor to open teammates. Loves to have the ball in his hands late in games and has proven to be reliable with five game winners at the buzzer in the last two seasons. Certainly one of the best Juniors – if not, players – in class A.

Gunner is tall, lanky and a very creative scorer. He can shoot the ball from deep and he finishes really well around the rim (eFG of 68%). Excellent shot blocker and looks to be more physical this season. He has all the tools of being a top notch

–

Kevin Chambers – Foyil

Talon started every game last year as a sophomore at the 5 for us. He will get to move to the 4 this year, which is a role he is much more familiar with and comfortable in. He averaged 10 points a game and 8 rebounds last year. He has spent more time in the gym than anyone to be ready to step up and be a more consistent scorer for us this year. The weightroom is really paying off for him as well. He is the type of kid that wants to be good, wants to be coached hard, and will do what it takes to help his team. I always say he has gotten better, but still has room for growth and still has another level he will be able to reach if he wants to get there.

–

Connor Pierce – Oklahoma Union

Connor was our leading scorer (11 ppg) and rebounder (6 rpg) while also being one of our best defensively. I’m looking forward to seeing his growth in year 2 as a starter. He also is our starting quarterback and a starter on our baseball team all while being in the running for valedictorian and having one of the better ACT scores in his class. He is an unbelievable all around kid that will be successful in anything he chooses to do because of his work ethic and determination.

Basketball wise he is our leading scorer, probably our best defender, he plays with a great motor and he is a very smart, heady player. I think he is kind of the glue that holds us together and he is a gym rat and one of the hardest workers I have ever coached.

–

Jaylen Melton – Braggs

Jaylen has been a 4 year starter for the Braggs Wildcats. In that time he has scored over 1000 points and recorded 800 assists. His hustle, unselfishness, and athleticism are a catalyst to the way we play. He is one of the better point guards in the region if not the state.

–

Maddox Bridges – Eufaula

“2023-24 Vype 100

Preseason Vype 3A 2nd Team

Route 66 All Conference Team (Junior), All Conference as freshman (3rd) and sophomore (1st) at Checotah – 16ppg despite drawing double and triple teams, 8.8 points in the paint, 2.2 reb, 2 steals per game. Double digit points in 23 of 25 games; 15+ in 15 of 25 games

Two 30pt games (career high 38 vs Vian) 2+ steals in 17 of 25 games (5 steals vs Muldrow and Beggs) Recorded at least 1 block in 12 games (multiple 3 block games despite playing a guard – and top of our zone)

Maddox is a dangerous scorer who can go for 30+, but is more dangerous because you can usually pencil him in for 15 points no matter what. He’s lethal in transition from the wing and puts tremendous pressure on the defense because he can consistently get in the paint. Maddox uses his great athleticism to disrupt offenses and create turnovers.”

Cameron Eakle – Stigler

Cameron is one of the most improved kids I have coached in my career. He has a great junior year but made huge strides this offseason by putting in work in the weight room and has put on 20 pounds of muscle. He was primarily a guard who could shoot it in the past but has now added an effective midrange game and with his added strength can finish at the rim.

Getting the opportunity to compete against some of the best competition across the region will hopefully have him prepared for his upcoming season.

He went from playing 40 minutes his whole freshman season to being a starter and scoring a career high of 41 points against our rivals from Wewoka last year. He worked hard and the results showed by the way he improved from freshman to sophomore year. He is one of the hardest workers I have ever coached, and also one of the most coachable kids I have coached, he is an extreme competitor that hates to lose. Wyatt has a really good midrange floater that helps with his size, rebounds extremely well and is a streaky shooter from 3 but when he gets hot he can get really hot! Wyatt looked like the best player on the floor a lot of times this summer and I look for him to have a big time junior year this season and help lead us in all aspects of the game.

He plays with more of an old school vibe. Not only do I expect, but I am excited to see just how big of a year this dude can have.
