Award Winners from IWU/P-Hoops Prospect Camp

Today P-Hoops will hand out the remaining hardware to some worthy recipients who rose to the top at the IWU/P-Hoops Prospect Camp. There were many deserving campers, but the ones awarded here really stood out as the very best in specific aspects of the game. So without further ado, let P-Hoops unveil the cream of the crop from camp!

Most Athletic: There were many high-risers and freak athletes in attendance this past Saturday, but none was so impressive as Lawrence North junior Brandon Muncie. From the beginning of camp, Muncie wanted to impress all spectators with an array of above the rim antics, whether off the dribble during point guard drills, during water breaks, or even throwing down an alley-oop during 5-on-5 play. Muncie is a tad raw yet, but his athletic tools have equipped him to succeed with more and more hours in the gym.

Other athletes of note: Travis Burkett (Jr) Indianapolis Home School, William Clinton Barnes III (Jr) Marion, Seth Kisler (Sr) Blackhawk Christian, Darius Williams (Sr) Oswego (IL).

Best Post Player: There were some great big men in attendance and they were drilled well by assistant coach Jeff Clark with the help of star Wildcat players Zach Coverstone and Will Hubertz. One young man stood out above the rest with his great ability to establish himself in the post, hold off defenders, catch the ball, and make solid moves in either direction with both hands. Parker Stouffer of Southwood, a senior 6'8 manchild, earns the honor of best down low.

Other post players of note: Tyler Greathouse (Jr) Columbus North, Greg Miller (Sr) North Miami, Josh Cook (Sr) Mississinewa, Wade Thomas (Jr) Lebanon

Toughest: This award went to the camper who competed the hardest on the floor and in the workouts they were put through by Coach Tonagel and his staff. This camper not only excelled at these aspects of camp, but truly seemed to enjoy being put through some difficult situations. Spencer Krhin of Southwood, another senior, gets this honor. He was a beast in all the measurables, benching 185 pounds 16 times, doing 30 pull ups, and rising up 33 inches on his vertical. Impressive!

Other warriors of note: Travis Burkett (Jr) Indianpolis Home School, Spencer Comer (Jr) Rushville

Best Ball Handler: This camper was the best with the ball in his hands, keeping it away from the opposition while setting up his team for scores and great possessions. He had deft moves with the ball, showing off a solid crossover and good passing skills. Crawfordsville junior Trent Crabtree showed me the most at the point.

Other ball handlers of note: Spencer Krhin (Sr) Southwood, Spencer Comer (Jr) Rushville, Josh McDonald (Sr) Columbus East, Chris Birky (Sr) Mississinewa, Stephan Jones (Sr) Carroll

Most Potential: This award goes to the player with the highest ceiling, the brightest future, and the most probability of a big time basketball career. This player may not have had the best showing at camp, but the tools were evident and his frame and skill set are of the kind that make college coaches drool. He also has great length and above average athleticism and the potential to play three or four positions. Who is he? None other than 6'8 wing and Columbus North junior Tyler Greathouse.

Others with high potential: William Clinton Barnes III (Jr) Marion, Greg Miller (Sr) North Miami, Seth Kisler (Sr) Blackhawk Christian, Kyle Fillman (Soph) Norwell, Parker Stouffer (Sr) Southwood, Brandon Muncie (Jr) Lawrence North
