ROSELLE, N.J. — Tyler Ennis returned from his unofficial visit to Syracuse to help key yet another St. Benedict’s Prep blowout.
One day after watching the No. 2 Orange handle UConn at the Carrier Dome, the junior point guard scored 16 points and dished nine assists as the Gray Bees crushed in-state rival St. Patrick, 81-53, in the PrimeTime Shootout at Roselle Catholic High School.
St. Benedict’s (26-1), No. 12 in the Five Star Power Rankings and No. 6 in USA Today, is just a one-point loss to St. Anthony away from being undefeated and in the conversation for a mythical national championship.
“Anytime it’s St. Pat’s, St. Anthony and St. Benedict’s, it’s a great rivalry,” Gray Bees coach Mark Taylor said. “All the players know each other. Our guys wanted to come out today and send a message, which I think they did a great job.”
NEWARK — Seton Hall hasn’t made the NCAA Tournament since 2006.
Pittsburgh is one of three teams — along with Kansas and Gonzaga — to win more than 20 games overall, capture 10 league games and appear in the Big Dance 10 straight years.
Now, with Seton Hall’s 73-66 victory over the Panthers Sunday at The Prudential Center, the Pirates (17-8, 6-7 Big East) have simultaneously helped their NCAA resume while severely injuring Pitt’s.
“”They’re still hanging on the edge but I would say the right side of things for the moment,” bracketologist Jerry Palm of CollegeRPI.com told SNY.tv in reference to Seton Hall. “They gotta keep going.”
ROSELLE, N.J. — St. Anthony remains unbeaten and Tariq Carey is a major reason why.
The 6-foot-2 point guard scored all nine of his points in the second half Saturday as the Friars, No. 5 in the Five Star Power Rankings, held off No. 6 Huntington (West Va.) Prep, 50-49, in the PrimeTime Shootout at Roselle Catholic High School.
“It was definitely good for my confidence,” Carey said after the game. “Up to this point, I was playing a little bit of a role, just trying to score and stuff like that. But I think I really showed Coach [Bob] Hurley that I can do much more this game.”
ROSELLE, N.J. — At 6 feet, 7 inches tall, Rondae Jefferson doesn’t look like your average high school guard.
But that is precisely what has made the 2013 combo guard so appealing to so many big-time schools.
“It’s hard to get the ball from me most of the time,” Jefferson said after scoring 15 points in Chester’s 76-62 victory over Neptune Saturday in the PrimeTime Shootout at Roselle Catholic High School.
“[In] college, I want to play guard, so this summer I’m going to spend all my time in the gym working on my point guard skills.”
ROSELLE, N.J. — Andrew Wiggins is just a high school sophomore but he certainly ranks among the best pro prospects in North America.
And that is an impressive group that includes Nerlens Noel, Shabazz Muhammad, Kyle Anderson, Jabari Parker and Julius Randle.
“Not only is he the best young prospect in Canada, he might be the best young prospect in the Northern hemisphere,” longtime New York recruiting analyst Tom Konchalski told SNY.tv after Wiggins went for 19 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists in Huntington (West Va.) Prep’s 50-49 loss to St. Anthony in the PrimeTime Shootout.
ROSELLE, N.J. — Kyle Anderson still hasn’t lost in a St. Anthony uniform.
The 6-foot-9 point guard is now 52-0 in a Friars jersey after St. Anthony, No. 5 in the Five Star Power Rankings, downed No. 6 Huntington (West Va.) Prep 50-49 before a capacity crowd at Roselle Catholic High School.
After the Friars (19-0) came back from a 10-point first-half deficit, Anderson was asked if this was the best team St. Anthony has played this season.
