NCC April 17 Shootout Evaluations    
I thought the talent level was the best I have seen in the 15 plus years I have been attending! Here are my top players at each position.
 
Post Play: I like Jevin Zimmerman out of Garden Spot. I thought he was the toughest guy at the Shootout and had decent basketball skills to go with! He could score facing the basket or on the blocks and ran the floor well. He is class of 2011 so he would be a a great last minute addition.
 
3 man position: This was a tossup between Nathan Alalmarode out of Warren County Virginia and Daniel Rusling out of Palmyra. I thought that Nathan was a good offensive player in the painted area while Rusling was a better defensive player in the painted area and deceptively quick. Offensively Alamarode was better scoring 15 feet on in and Rusling was a lights out 3 point threat! Two quality players.

Guard slot: Cori Ebersole just played well, shot well, defended and played hard. He came from a winning program at Dallastown and played the game the right way! He is more of a natural 2 guard. Royce Hunsberger out of LaPlata Maryland shot lights out from three point range and teams are always looking for players who can put the ball in the basket because good shooters make smart coaches!
