AAU season is well under way and a number of new scholarship offers have been given out in recent days. With that in mind, MADE highlights several new ones to go out this week.
Ryan Moesch | 2026 Point Guard | Cushing Academy (MA)
The Upstate New York native has seen his recruitment explode over the past few years and it’s still gaining momentum. His reputation as a scorer has only grown and his performance in the NEPSAC last year was very impressive. This exciting play maker added a new offer to Duquesne this past week and more could be on the way. Moesch is a huge star in 2026, an elite decision maker, has a brilliant basketball IQ and should continue dominating all summer.
Deron Rippey | 2026 Point Guard | Blair Academy (NJ)
Rippey was putting on a show at the Made Hoops event over the weekend taking down multiple EYBL squads. He’s an explosive guard who plays above the rim, he’s an elite finisher, has a tremendous handle and is a lead alpha guard. The Blair product is a good teammate, a great kid off the court, super competitive, highly skilled and motivated. While our comparison for him has always been a Donovan Mitchell knock off his play as of late has been even better. His team posted that he just received new offers from Washington and Georgia.
Ethan Johnston | 2026 Guard | The Hill School (PA)
The immensely talented off guard has built up a great resume and has had plenty of D1 suitors. He has been a star at the Hill School and always picks up his play whenever he suits up for the New York Rens. His potential at the next level is very high, he’s versatile, can score in bunches and is a great prospect to build around. Johnston has plenty of options to choose from but Creighton has decided to join the mix as his latest offer. Their hope is to get him on campus for a visit but they will have tons of competition trying to lure him away.
Dior Anderson | 2026 Point Guard | Monsignor Scanlan (NY)
Anderson has quietly been a great prospect in the CHSAA for multiple seasons so far. He’s seen his scoring numbers increase every year and as a Junior he scored a ton. The Junior stud is tough as nails, elusive, a strong finisher, he lives at the line and can heat up from downtown. His recruitment has been solid with schools like Robert Morris and Stony Brook connected to him but this week he can now add Alcorn State to the list. Expect more schools to get involved for the All CHSAA selection.
Aleska Vlajic | 2025 Forward | Hoosac (NY)
Vlajic developed into a D1 prospect over the past few seasons and was committed to Fordham. This was a huge pickup for the Rams but when they fired their coaches it caused him to re open his recruitment. The big man has been running with 6th Boro Hoops which is a Made Hoops Circuit that competed over the weekend. They were terrific and Vlajic was spectacular, averaging almost 32 points in his two big matchups. He’s a stretch forward who understands spacing, he’s got a great release, nice touch around the rim and is a fully developed offensive big. His recruitment after leaving Fordham brought a lot of questions but after this weekend schools like Manhattan and Buffalo have now offered in hopes of landing him.
