Team camp season wraps up this weekend, with high school prospects and college coaches alike turning their attention to the upcoming July live recruiting periods.

More than two dozen high school teams, as well as a few AAU squads, will be taking part in this weekend’s Temple team camp, which runs Friday night and most of the day Saturday in the program’s six-court Pearson/McGonigle practice facility on North Broad.

Highlighting the event are several of the region’s top programs:

  • Abington, the two-time defending District 1 6A champs, return Villanova-bound big man Eric Dixon and Penn-bound wing Lucas Monroe, and the two rising seniors will have the Galloping Ghosts yet again in the running for district and state titles.

  • Roman Catholic, the defending Catholic League and state 6A champion, features rising seniors Seth Lundy and Hakim Hart, both of whom are being chased by quite a few Division I programs, and two of the top freshmen in the area -- Jalen Duren (6-8) and Justice Williams (6-3), who will jump right into the Cahillites’ rotation if not the starting lineup.

  • Several other Catholic League schools bring Division I talent to the table; La Salle College HS features rising senior forwards Zach Crisler (6-9) and Konrad Kiszka (6-7), St. Joe’s Prep has Princeton commit Jacob O’Connell (6-11) in the middle and talented rising junior Trevor Wall on the ball, and Archbishop Wood has impressive rising sophomores like point guard Rahsool Diggins and wing Daeshon Sheppard.

  • Both WeR1 and Team Final are bringing their 16U teams to Temple, and each is stocked with future Division I talent; Team FInal has Imhotep’s Elijah Taylor in the middle and recent Temple offeree Jyare Davis (Sanford School, Del.) on the wing; WeR1 features Coatesville standout Jhamir “Jig” Brickus running point plus Bishop McDevitt’s Robert Smith and Ahmir Harris in the backcourt.

Here’s the full list participating teams: Abington, Achieve More 1, Achieve More 2, Archbishop Wood, Baltimore Polytechnic (Md.), Bethlehem Catholic, Bishop Shanahan, Camden (N.J.), Central Dauphin East, Cherokee (N.J.), Cherry Hill East (N.J.), Constitution, Episcopal Academy, Germantown Academy, Haddon Heights (N.J.), Harriton, La Salle College HS, Norristown, Oak Park (Mich.), Overbrook, Roman Catholic, Simon Gratz, St. George’s Tech (Del.), St. Joe’s Prep, Plymouth-Whitemarsh, Shipley School, Team Final 16s, Team Speed (N.J.) Team St8ment (Md.), TU All-Stars, WeR1 16s, West Catholic
