The Elite 75 List Drop Continues!

Friday, September 27th, 2024

Five new names on the Frosh/Soph Elite 75 list have been revealed today.

Let’s take a look.

DJ Hawkins, St. Thomas More - After two seasons at Farmington High School in Connecticut, Hawkins reclassed and joined the powerhouse at St. Thomas More. He’s a very athletic 6’7 wing, with loads of upside and picked up a Youngstown State offer following the showcase.

Talib Martin, St. Peter’s HS - Coming from a family full of high-level basketball players, Martin is next in line. He’s a 6’5 wing with a smooth pull-up game, finishes in a variety of ways around the basket, and recently received a George Mason offer.

Ray Fernandez, Iona Prep - One of the top performers of the event, Fernandez is a player of note heading into his sophomore year. He’s very fluid, has one of the smoothest shots in the class of 2027, and is very well-rounded with rebounding chops and playmaking skills.

Amyas Hall-Chiari, Putnam Science - With experience playing on the Putnam varsity team, Hall-Chiari has upside at the guard spot. He’s a crafty guard with three-level scoring abilities entering his freshman year.

Brandon McCloud Jr, East Longmeadow - The Western Massachusetts native was a pleasant surprise heading into the showcase. He’s got evident athleticism, plays with a high motor and thrives as a slasher. Keep an eye on him as he enters his sophomore year.

Stay tuned for the next drop of the Elite 75 list tomorrow!
