|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | B.J. Stith | G | Lawrenceville, VABrunswick Bryant Stith on B.J. Stith: "B.J. has done everything that we've asked out of him in his first two years in our program. He's basically been our point guard, the glue that's held our team together and allowed other guys to score. He's very unselfish and was the facilitator. With the departure of Shaquille Jones and Tray Mason, we're going to ask B.J. to do a lot of scoring next year and not guard every other team's best player so that we can use his talents on the offensive end.

| #2 | Devon Hall | G | Virginia Beach, VACape Henry Collegiate School "He's a student of the game, has a good skill-set, he's also a leader and a great passer," says Devon's father and new Cape Henry Head Basketball Coach Mark Hall when asked what college coaches like most about him. "They obviously believe he's going to grow into something extremely special. He sees the floor really well, too." Devon already has multiple offers and is thought to favor UVa, where his older brother Mark is Class of 2012 football commitment! | 4 stars | 6'5" | list | |
| #3 | Romelo Trimble | G | Arlington, VABishop O'Connell Will Garlick wrote about Trimble "Melo is more than a setup jump shooter; he can take it to the rack. His six rebounds also tied for the team lead. A sure-fire D1 recruit, Melo faces tough competition every night playing in the WCAC." | 3 stars | 6'3" | 180 | list |
| #4 | Chris Tang | G | Newport News, VAHampton Roads Academy Back in the fall of 2010 Will Garlick wrote of Tang: A very skilled freshman that clearly has mid-major D-I potential as he sharpens up some parts to his already advanced, impressive game. A few of the plays he made on the perimeter were better than what you see out of some seniors and juniors. Tang, who arrived from China a month ago, already has a good head for the game, superb touch, sees the whole floor well and will look to attack with better than average athleticism. | 6'2" | 170 | list | |
| #5 | Markell Lodge | F | Crozet, VAMiller School His offensive game is limited to dunks and tip-ins but he is a game-changer on defense and very explosive. The 6-foot-6 Class of 2014 standout is receiving interest from George Mason. | 6'6" | 205 | list | |
| #6 | Jimmy Paige | F | Virginia Beach, VACape Henry Collegiate School "Jimmy Paige hasn't even scratched the surface of how good he can be. Once it clicks on for him and he knows he's getting mismatches on a regular basis, he should really flourish. He can guard the 2, 3 or 4 as well. He's going to be very good as the AAU season progresses. He's just athletic, can shoot the ball and gets a lot of things off freelancing." | 6'4" | 170 | list | |
| #7 | Jalen Hudson | G | Richmond, VABenedictine School The 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Benedictine is still developing his game but a number of colleges are already showing interest. | 6'4" | 185 | list | |
| #8 | Stephen Osu | C | Arlington, VABishop O'Connell | 6'8" | 210 | list | |
| #9 | Corbyn Jackson | F | St George, VABlue Ridge Jackson uses his big body to get position down low and he seems to enjoy contact. He is able to dribble out of traffic after grabbing rebounds and he is very strong holding on to the ball preventing guards from swiping at the ball. He's a good leaper who times his blocks well without getting into foul trouble. | 6'6" | 225 | list | |
| #10 | Marcus Evans | G | Chesapeake, VAGreat Bridge AAU Coach Coach Kenneth Chisholm told us "Marcus was a top scorer for his High School along with Taj Owens at Great Bridge. Here he has a little bit of a different role for us. Marcus is a slasher, defender and we put him on the hardest guard and he's a tough cover every time."
