Last season as a junior, Brock was one of only two juniors to make the Chicago Public League All-Academic 1st Team. He was also named to the Chicago Public League Red-South All-Conference Team.
Stephon Hannah, entering his senior season is another in a long line of top guards coming out of Chicago like Jason Straight, Sean Dockery, Will Bynum and Luther Head just to name a few. Hannah can handle the rock, he sees the floor and can stick the long jumper or take you to the hole.
Named to the Chicago Public League Red-East All-Conference Team for the second year in a row. As a sophomore he was named all-conference after averaging close to 24 points per game.
