Howell senior point guard Ryan Keegan, the school’s all-time leading scorer, will continue his career at The College of New Jersey, which was first reported by The Asbury Park Press. Keegan was an All Shore Media third-team selection for a Howell squad that reached the Shore Conference Tournament quarterfinals.
Also, as always, if you are with an AAU team that features Shore Conference players, feel free to send me any updates on the team. Here is an update on the Game7 Sharks, which features several Shore players, recently adding Colts Neck junior standout Hunter Wysocki.
Game 7 Sharks is in our sixth year of existence. What started out as one team has now evolved into a program with eight team’s. Our 17U ELITE team features several of the top 2012 players in the Shore Conference. We are sponsored by Under Armour. Our website is http://www.shoresharks.com. Here is a breakdown of each of our guys in alphabetical order:
Mike Aaman (6’8’’, F, 2012, Raritan) – The reigning Shore Conference and Monmouth County Player of The Year is on a mission to finish out his high school career strong. His inside game around the basket has improved very much over the past year. With us having a very big team, Aaman has been able to work on his perimeter game and develop a 15-foot jumper and is improving his handle. The premier shot blocker and rebounder in the Shore area. Committed to Wagner.
Will Boman (5’11’’, G, 2012, Middletown North) – Standout on our 16U team. Good defender who works hard and will have a nice career these next two seasons at North.
Bobby Brackett (6’7’’, G/F, 2012, Lawrence) – Our only non-Shore Conference player, Brackett is a human highlight film. He had six impressive dunks in a championship win two weeks ago. Strong around the basket and enjoys contact. Can step outside and hit the three. His older brother was a standout football player this past season for Penn State.
Jack Donnelly (6’1’’, G, 2012, Rumson) – Sharpshooter from behind the arc. Can score off the catch and shoot and can put the ball on the ground and take it to the hole. Netted 63 three-pointers for RFH this past season and may lead the Shore in that statistic this year. Good defender who loves to compete.
Jim Dzugan (6’5’’, F, 2012, Middletown South) – Strong post player with a lot of energy. Active on both sides of the ball; has a very high motor. Can score around the basket and gets a lot of second chance points. He is starting to develop into one of our better athletes.
Tim Frawley (6’4’’, G, 2012, Middletown North) – Versatile player who can defend the 1-4 positions. Can get very hot from behind the three-point line. Good shooter off of 1-2 dribbles. Has added a few new off the dribble moves to his repertoire. Also is a key player on North’s baseball team.
Jason Huelbig (6’4’’, G, 2012, Middletown North) – High riser who can get up and jam in a defender’s face. Very good length and could be a good defender. Has the ability to score in bunches and take over a game. Arguably the most athletic player in the Shore Conference. Looking to take that next step from a good player to a great player.
Bill Wrightson (6’9’’, F, 2012, Toms River North) – In his first year with the program and is improving each week. Big body that takes up a lot of space. Starting to develop a good motor. Has the potential to make a big impact on both sides of the ball. Nice touch around the hoop.
Hunter Wysocki (6’5’’, G, 2012, Colts Neck) – Can score inside and outside and will score a lot of baskets for us. Has a very high motor and competes every play. One of the best passers in the area and is very unselfish. Good defender and is a very good rebounder. Creates a lot of mismatches with his unique game. Very good volleyball player as well.
Eric Youncofski (5’11’’, G, 2012, Middletown North) – Led the Shore Conference in assists this year. One of the toughest kids you’ll ever meet, plays with a chip on his shoulder. Unselfish player who would much rather create plays for others than himself. Has extended the range on his jump shot and his ability to take it to the hole and score. Vocal leader.
