The all-area first team: What they accomplished

Here is a look at the first-team all-Southeastern Pennsylvania boys' basketball team:

Tyreke Evans, American Christian.

One of the nation's top players, Evans is almost always a matchup problem. The 6-foot-6, 210-pound combo guard routinely drives past forwards and shoots over guards. As a result, The Inquirer's Southeastern Pennsylvania boys' player of the year averaged 29 points, eight rebounds, six assists and 4.3 steals. The McDonald's all-American ended his career with more than 3,300 career points. He is unsigned for college.

Maalik Wayns, Roman Catholic.

The Catholic League Southern Division MVP is the latest in a long line of tough Philadelphia point guards. Despite being a pass-first, shoot-second player, the 6-2 junior still averaged a team-leading 22.4 points. The second-year starter also averaged 5.1 assists and 4.8 rebounds and 2.1 steals. He gave an oral commitment to Villanova.

Scootie Randall, Communications Tech.

The Public League MVP may be the most unselfish player in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Putting his team first, the 6-5 senior forward was at his best when the game was on the line. Randall averaged 21 points, 12 rebounds, five assists and two blocked shots en route to leading Communications Tech to the Public League title. He ended his three-year career at Communications Tech as the school's all-time leading scorer with 1,735 points. He is heading to Temple on a scholarship.

Nasir Robinson, Chester.

Slightly undersized at 6-5, the senior looks out of place in the low post. But that's until the opening tip-off. Despite routinely playing taller opponents, the power forward is a rebounding machine. A vital force on the Clippers' Class AAAA state-champion team, Robinson averaged a team-best 11.3 rebounds. The low-post terror also averaged 16.5 points, 3.9 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.1 blocks per game. He signed with Pittsburgh.

Aaric Murray, Glen Mills.

The 6-foot-91/2 junior center was a highlight clip in the making. He averaged 19 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks a game. His ability to shoot eight- to 12-foot jumpers, finish feeds to the post and score off one- or two-dribble spin moves helped the Bulls reach the District 1 Class AAAA playoffs. Murray has scholarship offers from Pittsburgh, West Virginia, Marquette, Rutgers, La Salle, Temple and St. Joseph's.
