Our staff has already got a look at hundreds of player from within the State with five showcases so far with another on-deck in the fall with the Northern Idaho Open (Sept. 9).

We continue our uncommitted spotlight series below with a look at 2025 CINF Cooper Thompson of Twin Falls High School who was a Future Gamer last summer and has impressed with his strength at the dish over the past year.
