Junior Team Focus: Mount Carmel S.S

Throughout the years numerous amounts of people have debated on which is better "Mississauga Basketball or Brampton?". Surely Brampton Centennial represented Brampton this year by finishing the season almost undefeated. But Mount Carmel from Mississauga was overlooked this year despite their undefeated regular season record. Their one great weakness is that they lack size on defense and offense. If I'm correct, their tallest player is a 6'1 grade nine kid named Paul Galas. They effortlessly overcome that with their outstanding chemistry and smooth play.

Key Players

Paul Galas 6'1 G/F 2015

Along with Reece, Paul has displayed he is a great player by doing almost everything on the court. He can rebound, drive for two and shot the occasional Mid-Range jumper. I've seen this ninth grader a total of five times this season including tournaments and regular season games. In most of the games he plays outstanding defense with great defensive stance and quick reflex's on the block. I estimate Paul will be around 6'5 by the end of his growth and that is a perfect height for a shooting guard. Paul needs to improve on his jump shot and drive of the pick. If those qualities are improved on, than Paul will be an outstanding player in Peel, possibly top 20!

Jahvari Bennet 5'11 PG 2014

Jahvari, If I'm correct, has the perfect size for the point position. Hes quick, strong and can create plays for others. Jahvari is probably the 2nd best on this Carmel team, but he is hands down the best PG on the team. His strengths are evident, he can hit the open trey ball and drive in for two as well as pass out for a shot. If Jahvari gets taller, than he surely will be a great player from Peel. I'm going to love to see Jahvari, Paul, Hanson, and Cassidy play senior next year that's a given!
