Hoops City Highlights

The first thing people notice about Skal Levissiere is that he is tall. He has a shot shooting touch from 17ft in. He's not very physical, but he runs the floor like a 6'6" wing plus he blocks and changes alot of shots. The one thing that you won't notice at first glance he his amazing story of how survived one of the worst earthquakes in modern history. Skal, a native of Hati, was at his home when the quake hit causing his entire house to collapse on him. Skal talked about how he was trapped in a small cramped space under the rubble that was his home. After three hours, Skal was rescued by his father and neighbors.

Markel Crawford is magic with the rock. At 6'5", Crawford has tremendous play making ability with the ball in his hands. He also has the ability to play off the ball. Markel was one of many talented players on the Memphis YOMCA 17u team that finished second in the Nike Peach Jam and AAU Nationals.

Leron Black's, 6'7" Small Forward 2014, game is morphing into beast mode. Black is the perfect combination of size, length, skill, and plus he has the will to want to be great. Leron's White Station Spartans lost three key players to graduation, but he feels that he and fellow 2014 team mate Davell Roby are ready to step up.

Alex Anderson works harder than any prep basketbball player I've ever seen. Over the Summer, Alex Anderson wanted to become more of a floor general than a scoring point guard. At 5'9", Anderson is naturally quick and his handles along with his strength allows him get his shot off on any defender. Going into his senior year, Anderson's Woodale Cardinals have a chance to make some noise and surprise a few teams.
