Phoenix, AZ – The 3^rd Annual Phoenix Fall Showcase (PFS) featured over 400 players from Arizona, New Mexico, California, Nevada and Wyoming. Players that stood out were Terrell Stoglin, Jamal Franklin, Jahii Carson, Martyre DeMarco and George Matthews. The PFS also attracted several junior college, NAIA and Division II colleges that were in attendance. Several scouting & recruiting services were also present. Here is a list of the Top Prospects from the PFS.

Terrell Stoglin – (2010 Santa Rita HS, AZ) The point guard loves to attack and get his team going. Stoglin is one of the pure point guards in the country who can score at will and get to the basket at anytime. His quick step allows him to be very hard to stop and has already committed to Maryland.

Jamal Franklin – (2010 Westwind Prep, AZ) Franklin is one of the most athletic players in prep this year. He also can take you off the dribble and can jump out of the gym. In one game he exploded for 5 dunks in one half . Franklin has committed to San Diego State.

Jahii Carson – (2011 Mesa HS, AZ) The 5’11 point guard is going to give Stoglin and run for the scoring title this season. Carson is a crafty and skilled player on the court. His leadership on the floor is one of the best in the country and can take over a game with his scoring ability. Carson has gave a verbal commitment to Craig Robinson and Oregon State University.

Tony Snell – (2010 Westwind Prep, AZ) Snell was a player to watch at the PFS. He also with Franklin are electrifying around the basket. Snell is a 6’8 wing player who committed to Steve Alford and the University of New Mexico.

Martyre DeMarco – (2011 Shadow Mountain, AZ) There is no better guard available in this class in Arizona that can score from anywhere. The 6’2 combo guard has flashes of Mike Bibby at times. DeMarco scored 57 points in one game in the PFS. He knows how to get to the basket and use his body on defenders to score. DeMarco is a solid mid to high D1 player.

George Matthews – (2010 St Mary’s HS, AZ) Matthews can play with his back to the basket as well as turn and face up. At 6’7 he is such a gifted athlete he out matches his opponents. Matthews could be in the running for player of the year in Arizona. He could be headed to prep and has taken visits to St. John’s, Arizona, UNLV, Arizona State and Connecticut.

Matt Korcheck – (2010 Sabino HS, AZ) The 6’9 power forward is a consistent rebounder who likes to play physical. He runs the floor well for a big man, bocks shots and can score in the post. Korcheck already committed to University of Texas El Paso.

John Bailey – (2010 Dobson HS, AZ) Bailey can run the floor very well for a 6’10 post player. He can score and has a mid range game. He likes to defend and sees the floor well in transition. Bailey needs to learn how to use his size better and has committed to the University of Portland.

Carter Warnock – (2010 Seton Catholic HS, AZ) The 6’10 center is hard to stop under the basket. Uses his size well and has major upside.

Warnock has gained interest from Eastern Washington, James Madison, Bowling Green, Arkansas Little-Rock, and Webber State.

Blake Vedder – (2010 Impact Basketball Academy Las Vegas, NV) Vedder is long and has great upside as he picks up quick on the floor.

Demetrius Balark – (2012 Kellis HS, AZ) He showed why he is was the top 2012 prospect in the PFS along with his scoring ability and he is a great on ball defender.

Already gaining interest from Oregon State, Memphis, Arizona, Georgetown, Pepperdine, Arkansas Little Rock and San Francisco.

Joey De La Rosa – (2011 Impact Basketball Academy Las Vegas, NV) Runs the floor and finishes with ease under the basket. Has a good mid range game and must improve his mobility.
