Physical, Athletic 6'3 Da'Monte Williams is a Natural! New Ballislife Mixtape

Scott Comeau — Thu, 19 May 2016 03:32:15 +0000

6'3 Da’Monte Williams (Peoria Manual 2017) is the son of former Illinois star (2001 Big Ten POY) and 1998 Illinois Mr. Basketball and McDonald's All-American, Frank Williams. The four-star, strong, long, athletic 2017 combo guard is widely considered a top 50 player nationally and one of the top HS players in Illinois.
With a great deal of upside and a terrific feel, Da'Monte's game is described as beging reminiscent of his father's, but Frank was more of a point guard. While not known as a scorer, Da'Monte scored 37 points in Manual's dramatic Pontiac Holiday Tournament semifinal win over Joliet West in December. Check out our raw highlights from that game on Ballislife Midwest youtube channel.
Following in his father's footsteps, this season Da'Monte committed to play college basketball in the Big Ten at Illinois.
Check out Da'Monte Williams' first Ballislife mixtape covering highlights from his junior season at Peoria Manual HS and Mac Irvin Fire (AAU).

6'4 Jordan Goodwin Goes Beast Mode! Althoff Wins First State Title!

Scott Comeau — Thu, 24 Mar 2016 01:23:49 +0000

6'4 Jordan Goodwin (Belleville Althoff) is the winningest and most productive player in Illinois high school basketball and he's just a junior! He might not be the most athletic or the highest ranked on the national lists, but Goodwin is a pure basketball player and he wins! He doesn't need a "position at the next level."
Scoring over 1700 career points in high school so far, Goodwin led the Belleville Althoff Crusaders (32-2) to its first Boys Basketball state title after finishing second in 2015. Althoff checks in at #26 in the latest BALLISLIFE FAB 50. Look for them to move up!
Goodwin has dominated varsity basketball since he stepped on the court as a freshman. As a sophomore, he led team in scoring (20ppg), rebounding (8.4) and second in assists (2.5). As a junior, he did it again, averaging a team high 19ppg with a team high 293 rebounds and 99 assists.
Goodwin is as competitive and physical as any high school player. He guards the opponent's best player, even if it means a 7 inch size disadvantage as it did in Peoria vs St Joes' 6'11 Nick Rakocevic.
Check out these highlights from the IHSA State semis and finals from Carver Arena in Peoria, IL. You'll see Goodwin's high basketball IQ and court vision on display in this mixtape, but his biggest strength is his rebounding (toughness) especially for his size and his position (guard). He's also a leader for his team.
In the state semis and finals in Peoria (2 wins), Goodwin put up 44 points, 25 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 steals.
Goodwin scored 25 points, grabbing 15 rebounds in the 3A title game rematch from 2015 vs St Joes.
Then Goodwin and the Crusaders dominated Lincoln-Way West 62-37 to win the Class 3A state title, not allowing a single field goal for a seven-minute stretch.
In the final, Goodwin finished with 19 points (8-14), 10 rebounds, five assists and three steals before exiting.
It was a historic season for the St Louis area Althoff with their only losses coming to Highland (when most of team still returning from playing football) and to Chaminade which features Goodwin St Louis Eagles AAU teammate Duke-bound Jayson Tatum, one of the top players in the country.
As for recruiting, high major coaches are taking notice of Goodwin. Jordan currently holds offers from Iowa (Football and Basketball), Purdue, Indiana, Creighton, Illinois, Missouri, SLU, Virginia Tech, Illinois State, Northwestern and more. That list will continue to grow!
Thanks to Matt Troha and everyone at the IHSA and Belleville Althoff Catholic.

Villanova-Bound Jalen Brunson Wins State Title in Emotional Final HS Game, Scoring 30!

Scott Comeau — Tue, 24 Mar 2015 18:50:04 +0000

Jalen Brunson led Illinois preseason favorite Stevenson HS (Lincolnshire, IL) to its first State Basketball title. In their third consecutive trip downstate to Peoria, the Patriots become the first team in Lake County history to win a basketball title.
Brunson scored 30 in the title game leading Stevenson (30-3) to a 57-40 win over Normal, setting new high-scoring record for Class 4A final. Jalen Brunson averaged 23 points, five rebounds and four assists this season.
Headed to Villanova next season, Illinois' best player finishes his high school career with 2682 points. A McDonald's All-American and US National gold-medal winner, Brunson won over 100 games at Stevenson. Winning the state championship puts a cap on the career of Illinois high school basketball all-time greats.
As soon as the game ended, you'll see Jalen embrace his parents. Father Rick Brunson was a McDonalds high school All American (like Jalen) before starring at Temple and playing 9 NBA seasons on 8 teams.

Jabari Parker & #1 Simeon edges #2 Proviso East in epic Illinois state title game for 3-Peat!

Scott Comeau — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 06:33:10 +0000

2 of the nation's best public high school teams, #1 Chicago Simeon (33-1) and #2 Proviso East (32-1) battled for the Illinois Class 4A state championship at Peoria’s Carver Arena in the matchup that hoops fans had been anticipating all season.
Proviso East's 6’5 junior Sterling Brown (brother of Suns’ Shannon Brown) gave 6’8 Simeon junior star Jabari Parker all he could handle, but Parker’s Simeon teammates were there to pick him up when it counted most. Parker scored 15 pts and senior Steve Taylor (Marquette) had 12 pts + 17 rebounds in Simeon’s third straight Class 4A title with a 50-48 victory. Parker has one more than the Bulls' Derrick Rose with one season to go.
The win gave Simeon their 6th state championship (IL record) and #5 for Simeon coach Robert Smith (IL record).
This game was tied at the half. Sterling Brown scored 10 of his 25 pts in the 3rd quarter to give Proviso East a 39-34 lead with 8 minutes to play. But in the 4th, an 8-0 run gave Simeon a 45-41 lead with 3:05 left. Simeon extended the lead on a vicious dunk by Parker with 12 secs left before Brown hit a 3-pointer with seconds remaining.
After winning, all of Simeon’s players (except Parker who was being interviewed) removed their shoes and placed them on the court. With the exception of Parker, the coach suspended all the returning players for the first game of next season following this incident.
Simeon and Proviso East have won 10 state championships between them. We won’t be surprised if both return to Peoria next March to add another.
