Tinson was one of a few standouts from this very good Ramey squad who was able to make it all the way to the semifinals with a few impressive wins. The point guard made a ton of plays throughout the tournament with both his abilities with the ball as well to his high energy and quickness. He used his speed to often get into the paint and finish at the basket or with his effective floater while also facilitating it out. Tinson also used his quickness defensively in the full court press, defending the ball, and in the passing lanes to force plenty of turnovers.

Drew Lenz – 2029 – G – Team Herro
