Second time seeing both squads this season. Ritter is lead by Skyler Brentz, a 6'6 senior, while Park Tudor is led by Indiana University commit Yogi Ferrell.
Yogi Ferrell dominated the game right from the start and he didn't do it by scoring. He did it by finding teammates which led to wide open layups and shots. J.B. Rapp was on the receiving end of most of Ferrell's assists in the first quarter. Rapp had 7 points in the first period. Park Tudor took a 19-15 lead to the second quarter.
The second quarter was more of Yogi. He increased his scoring but still was making great passes. Park Tudor started to pull away from Ritter a bit in the second quarter. Trevon Bluiett was now Yogi's main target. Bluiett converted on shots near the basket and a couple of mid-range jumpers. Park Tudor was up 11 at the break.
The second half was more of the same. No huge runs by Park Tudor, but just consistent offense and pretty good defense that kept Ritter out of the paint most of the night. Glen Williams, 6'2", did have a couple of big two-hand dropstep dunks for Ritter. One of which was an "and 1" when he got hit in the head during his dunk.
Park Tudor won 63-45. Ferrell had 15 points and 10 assists, Bluiett chipped in 16 points, J.B. Rapp finished with 9 points.

Yogi Ferrell 5'11 PG 2012 Park Tudor
Yogi is explosive with the dribble, finds teammates extremely well, anticipates passes very well. Outside shooting is a strength of his as well. His toughness and IQ will be great at the next level.
Trevon Bluiett 6'4 SF 2014 Park Tudor
I'm not a huge Bluiett fan at this point in terms of offering him a scholarship. He definitely has some skills and some upside. I would like to see him be more explosive and be better on the perimeter. He shoots it pretty well from the mid-range right now but it is a push shot and I don't think it will translate against tough defense. A good talent, but I would like to see him develop more before I say he will be good at the high-major level.
J.B. Rapp 6'3 SG 2012 Park Tudor
Great catch and shoot guy. Lateral quickness is a weakness and he can't do much off the dribble because of his lack of explosiveness. He is strong and seems to know the game well though. D2/NAIA/D3 type prospect
Troy Spears 6'3 SF 2014 Park Tudor
Spears could be really good if he gets another 2 inches. He is a very good athlete, he is tough, good shooting form, can handle the ball a little bit. If he continues to develop his outside game, I could see him being a very good Mid-Major prospect.
Paul Bayt 6'4 SG 2012 Park Tudor
Not as consistent from the outside that Rapp is, but Bayt is also a good shooter. Bayt is a little bit longer and slightly quicker. I don't know that he is very tough though. Rarely puts the ball on the floor. D2/NAIA/D3 prospect.
Skyler Brentz 6'6 SF 2011 Ritter
I like Brentz's skill set. Good catch and shoot, shooter from the outside, can put the ball on the floor some, good length at a true 6'5 and maybe really 6'6. Not an elite level type athlete, but I think he can get away with it because of his height/length. Could be very good at the D2/NAIA level.
Glen Williams 6'2 SF 2011 Ritter
Explosive athlete, can defend, good motor. Offensive skill set is very limited. JUCO would probably be the best fit possibly NAIA.
Christian Ford 5'10 PG 2011 Ritter
Ford was much more under control this game in terms of shot selection than the times I have watch in the past. He is a streaky shooter from the outside. When he is on, he is really on. When he is off, then he might go 0-10 that night. No right hand off the dribble. Decent quickness, defensively he needs a lot of work.
