Southside Rising Stars ID: Statistical Analysis
March 21, 2022
On Sunday, March 20, we hosted the Southside Rising Stars ID at Powerhouse Athletics in Franklin, IN. This event served as an open identifier into the state's 2026 and 2027 graduates, providing our staff an early look at the area's top players as they continue to progress as prospects.
These early Rising Stars events also serve as identifiers for future invite-only events, including this summer's Junior Future Games at Lakepoint in Emerson, GA.
