November 2025

The Quinnite Invitational delivered a high level environment from the first possession to the last. The gym stayed full. The energy stayed loud. The moment felt bigger than a preseason event. Tim Duncan watched quietly but intently from the sideline. Stephen Silas studied spacing and pace like it was an NBA game plan. TMI Episcopal arrived led by Monty Williams, an NBA Coach of the Year with head coaching experience in New Orleans, Phoenix, and Detroit. His presence raised the bar for everyone in the building.

TMI brought depth, size, and discipline. Baylor commit Elijah Williams played with touch, balance, and confidence. He created offense with poise and showed control in tight spaces. Jaden Flemons added pace and playmaking, keeping TMI organized. Corbin Crocker protected the paint and secured key rebounds. He handled the dirty work, fought for positioning, and did all the physical things TMI needed to stay in games. His effort and energy steadied their interior presence

Legion Prep brought one of the deepest and most connected young cores in the event. Jeremiah Grisby competed with toughness. Cyrus Evans played with pace and confidence. Lanton Walker and Kenan Dikamba controlled space inside, using length and timing to anchor the paint. Solomon Bradshaw added scoring punch and composure, giving Legion Prep strong perimeter production. Their group chemistry was clear and consistent.

IX International made a strong impression with skill and discipline. Elijah Rebetez played with poise and clean pace, creating separation and making smart reads. His balance and control stood out. Triston McDonald added shooting at a high level, hitting shots with rhythm and confidence. Together they gave IX International one of the most polished young guard tandems in the Invitational.

ESD delivered a talented backcourt pairing. Michael Sorrell Jr. shot the ball with length and clean mechanics, while Drew Guy handled pressure, made mature reads, and controlled tempo. Their chemistry kept ESD steady in tough stretches.

Crowley showed one of the best mixtures of young talent. Collin King Sumberlin, Jaelon Germany, and Jeremiah Thirdkill formed a strong core. King Sumberlin played with poise, Germany scored at all three levels, and Thirdkill defended with intensity. Their connection on both ends made Crowley one of the most competitive groups in the event.

Lancaster came with toughness through William Langrum and Jacob Walker. Langrum attacked gaps with force. Walker played with strength and control. Together they gave Lancaster a confident and reliable backcourt.

Kimball brought a complete group. David Coe attacked downhill with force. Kayden King Gray spaced the floor with shooting and balance. Rylan Austin brought pace and creation. Their trio played connected and aggressive.

Faith Family looked like a national contender. Josiah Rose played with poise, IQ, and strong decision making. Xavier Young controlled the paint with force, timing, and rim protection. Josiah Jones added craft, scoring, and shot making that gave Faith Family a consistent perimeter threat.

The Quinnite Invitational continues to grow into one of the most important early season platforms in Texas. The competition stayed real. The development was clear. The players embraced the moment. The bar for next year is already higher.
