<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="957631" first="Marcus" last="Banks"]</strong> of Cannon Falls (6’1, PG). Banks is a top 250 kid in the state having played lead guard for his team this year and also scoring 11 points a game. Cannon Falls is a very good passing basketball team and Banks used that ball movement to hit threes and he led cutters very well. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="957614" first="Peyton" last="Dunham"]</strong> of Rochester Lourdes (6’4 SG). Dunham handled a lot of roles for the Eagles. Good rebounder out of the backcourt, solid passer, and he scored 11 points a contest. A top 200 senior-to-be in his grade statewide. </p>
<p><strong>Dieth Duop</strong> of Austin (6’3 SF). Duop received a bit more varsity time as the year moved on but his biggest contributions were for the Austin junior varsity. Has a chance to step into a nice role as a senior. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="774824" first="Ethan" last="Forthun"]</strong> of Southland (6’3, PF). Ethan is a strong, interior line football prospect that will give the Lightning an interior fight. Played JV for the Rebels as a junior. </p>
<p><strong>Bhan Kuey</strong> of Albert Lea (6’6, PF). Kuey will be the biggest player on the Lightning roster. Played mostly junior varsity for an improved Tigers team. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="774834" first="Haevan" last="Quimby"]</strong> of Triton (6’2, SF). Quimby was the leading scorer for the Cobras and he handled a lot of roles both playmaking and needing to board some as well. Hard worker in the weight room and a high percentage finisher. </p>
<p><strong>Charlie Reilly</strong> of Winona Cotter (6’0, PG). Charlie has dealt with some injuries in his career but when he has been able to play he has been a double figure scorer for Cotter. </p>
<p><strong>Devon Schultz</strong> of Randolph (6’2 SG). A skilled multi-sport athlete that scored in double figures for Randolph at 11 points a game. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="956149" first="Nolan" last="Stier"]</strong> of Stewartville (6’2, PG). Nolan is the player that college coaches will show up to see when the Lightning takes the floor. He’s a top 100 talent in the state with a near 40 percent three point shooting stroke and an excellent transition game with or without the ball. Will be able to play a combo role for the blue and white. </p>
