Preseason All-Conference: WaMaC West

<h2>PRESEASON PLAYER OF THE YEAR</h2><p><strong>Jake Neubauer, Clear Creek-Amana, 2016: </strong>In a tough call between Neubauer and South Tama&#39;s Darius Lasley, we&#39;ll give Neubauer a slight edge. Neubauer is a more efficient, albeit perhaps not as explosive, scorer, takes better care of the ball and is a solid defensive player. You can&#39;t really go wrong either way here, but give the slight edge to efficiency.</p> <h2>FIRST TEAM</h2><p><strong>Darius Lasley, South Tama, 2016: </strong>16.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 50 steals<br /> <br /> <strong>Jake Neubauer, Clear Creek-Amana, 2016: </strong>12.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 71 assists, 51 steals, 93.0 FT%, 46.9 3P%<br /> <br /> <strong>Nick Steger, Independence, 2016: </strong>11.6 points, 4.3 rebounds<br /> <br /> <strong>Tucker Schroeder, Benton Community, 2016: </strong>11.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, 21 blocks<br /> <br /> <strong>Grant Dirks, Center Point-Urbana, 2018: </strong>9.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 25 blocks, 53.8 FG%</p> <h2>Second team</h2><p><strong>Jordan Michels, Benton Community, 2016: </strong>6.1 points, 4.1 rebounds<br /> <br /> <strong>Lathan Cooper, Benton Community, 2016: </strong>10.7 points, 65 assists, 36 steals<br /> <br /> <strong>Tyler Rippel, Vinton-Shellsburg, 2016: </strong>10.8 points, 3.4 rebounds<br /> <br /> <strong>Jacob Manderscheid, Marion, 2016: </strong>7.8 points, 3.2 rebounds<br /> <br /> <strong>Riley Davenport, South Tama, 2017: </strong>9.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 57.0 FG%</p> <h2>Honorable Mention</h2><p><strong>Spencer Pink, Independence, 2016<br /> <br /> Cal Miller, Clear Creek-Amana, 2016<br /> <br /> Clayton Rosenberger, South Tama, 2017<br /> <br /> Jace Jirak, Center Point-Urbana, 2016<br /> <br /> Tyler Eggert, Benton Community, 2017<br /> <br /> Ben Subbert, Williamsburg, 2018</strong></p>
