I have heard all year that Crum wouldn't be able to hit 3's without Hammonds. Every game I watched, He got himself open to shoot or shot with someone on him and was very consistent. Yes hammonds passed him the ball, but thats just being a point guard. I think it is more of Crum making Hammonds look good than what people think. Now dont get me wrong, Alex is a heck of a player, and I watched Alex all through his high school career and thought he was a pretty good point guard, but this year Crum made him alot better. Without him, Hammonds wouldn't have had all of his assists, and also the floor wouldnt have been spread for him to drive in to get his points. They played very well together. Yes if you take out Hammonds, Crum would still be a good player but Hammonds made him better. But look at it the other way, take out Crum, and Hammonds wouldnt have been nowhere near as good and neither would the AC team. They played well off each other. I mean you dont lead the state in 3's while shooting 50 percent, top 10 in scoring in the state, and be 2nd all time for 3's in a season if you are not a very talented ball player. IMO, both of these boys were in the top 10 in the region, and probably even Logan Crowder in there as well. Just the postseason though, here is my top 10

1. Shane Grimm
2. Elisha Justice
3. Landon Slone
4. Aaron Crum
5. Jake Bryant
6. Dustin May
7. Ian Welsh
8. Logan Crowder
9. J.D Vanhoose
10. Ashley Hatfield

Top 10 all year long

1. Landon Slone
2. Elisha Justice
3. Aaron Crum
4. Shane Grimm
5. Devon Adams
6. Ashley Hatfield
7. Dustin May
8. Alex Hammonds
9. Ian Welsh
10. Jake Bryant/ Logan Crowder

I agree, never really looked at it that way. Hammonds & Crum for Allen Central had a very good year but I just think that there are better players in this region than Aaron Crum.
