Terry Hawthorne, 6-0, 165
ATH East St. Louis (Ill.)

Hawthorne made the all-tournament team on defense but may have also been the top receiver in the camp. He was the top two-way player at the event and has the ability to be an impact player at receiver or safety at the college level.

For now, it appears Hawthorne will start out on defense. His athleticism is off the charts and has clearly surpassed his more highly-touted teammate Kraig Appleton as a college prospect in our eyes. Whenever East St. Louis needed a big play, the ball went to Hawthorne. He has plus speed, great leaping ability and his timing on jump-ball situations is off the charts. He's a tough, physical player with great instincts and is always around the ball. In big situations, he wants to be the guy making the play. That can't be said about every top player we've seen this year.
