PRESEASON FIRST-TEAM ALL-CONFERENCE

G Trey Schroeder – Sr. (DeForest)
G Owen Ziegler – Sr. (Mount Horeb)
G Nate Abel – Jr. (Beaver Dam)
F Trevor Spray – Sr. (Sauk Prairie)
SECOND TEAM
G Zach Bestor (Reedsburg) – Jr.
G Max Weisbrod (DeForest) – So.
G Carter Daniels (Reedsburg) – Sr.
F Brandt Wilson (Sauk Prairie) – Jr.
F Andrew Keller (Waunakee) – So.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR – Will Furhmann
Furmann averaged 16.8 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 2.4 steals per game as a junior, leading Reedsburg in all four categories. A skilled, high-IQ, do-it-all floor general, Furmann was a unanimous choice for first-team honors last season while leading the Beavers to a 13-2 record.
BREAKOUT PLAYER – Max Weisbrod
Weisbrod had a very strong and impressive spring and summer on the travel circuit. Weisbrod got very valuable experience with DeForest’s varsity last season, averaging 4.6 points per game. Look for the sophomore guard to hit the ground running in 2019-20 and be one of the difference makers for the Norskies.
SURPRISE PLAYER – Owen Ziegler
Mount Horeb had a very senior-laden team last season. As a result, Ziegler flew under the radar. Ziegler was sixth on the team in scoring, averaging 8.0 points per game, but showed during the travel season he’s capable of leading a team. A deadly sharpshooter who can’t be left open or defended without a hand in his face, Ziegler is a strong candidate for first-team All-Conference honors.
