Apache Memorial: 2027 Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Insider Exposure hosted their live event called Apache Memorial Showcase this weekend in Raleigh, NC.  Twenty courts were going at the same time with tough competition and college coaches in the seats to watch it all.  I was able to catch the first couple of days of the event, so let's take a look at some of the current sophomores that stood out to me.</p> <!--

was strong on both ends of the court going after rebounds. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block
