Earlier this summer we kicked off our first series of events at Wilsonville HS.

Summer events events such as this provide players with the opportunity to build their profile with the most up-to-date information and video footage. All players in attendance receive an online profile with their verified statistics, player report, picture and video. Additionally, all subsequent stories written about a prospect will be linked to the player’s profile, ultimately creating a one-stop shop for recruiters.

Showcases help identify which prospects have asserted themselves towards the top of their class as well as who might be one of the next youngsters to emerge onto the scene. They also serve as potential identifiers for invite-only events such as our Future Games and Junior Future Games

We previously released the Statistical Leaders from our Oregon Summer Kickoff.

Now we're highlighting individual performers from the event. Here are 6 uncommitted prospects in the 2022 class...
