ND Attack 14U: Season Assessment

<p>We have a solid group of players on this 14U ND Attack team. They are from all across the state of North Dakota. The ND Attack team had a quality summer, improved as players, and they had some fun along the way! I am looking forward to seeing how these guys grew over the summer and to see what type of Impact that they have during the school season. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/03/Artwork_PNG_NDAttackLogo.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1159650" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/03/Artwork_PNG_NDAttackLogo-300x300.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p> <h3><i><u>Comments from coach <b>Bryce Laxdal</b></u></i></h3> <p>This was a really fun group to coach, they quickly gelled as a team and became very good friends. This team is full of future All-Region and All-State type guys, maybe even a State Champ or two. I am very excited to watch them grow and develop as players in the next few seasons. We ended the summer with 14 wins and had great contributions from everyone, that’s what really stuck out to me about this team. </p> <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>ND ATTACK ROSTER</strong></span></h3> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165097" first="Ben" last="Gudajtes"] (2025) |5-10 G| Midway/Minto</strong> - High basketball IQ, great defender.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165343" first="Brady" last="Haugen"] (2025) |6-1 F| Griggs County Central</strong> -    Great inside out guy, who can drive baseline and score with ease.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165347" first="Calvin" last="Garmann"] (2025) |6-4 F| Watford City</strong> - Very hard worker, super athletic and can score inside different ways.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165348" first="Drew" last="Passa"] (2025) |5-2 G| Drayton/Valley/Edinburg</strong> - Dead 3, when he gets his shot off he doesn’t miss often.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165355" first="Grant" last="Cosley"] (2025) |5-7 G| North Border</strong> - Ran the show for us, great defender.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165361" first="Jace" last="Dillman"] (2025) |5-5 G| Jamestown</strong> - Great shooter with a great basketball IQ, future coach.</p> <p><strong>Kaden Pierce (2025) |6-0 G| Warren/Alvarado/Oslo (MN)</strong> - Very physical score who can pull up or get to the rim easy.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165391" first="Nolan" last="Weidner"] (2025) |5-6 G| Dickinson</strong> - Another great outside threat, who can handle the ball.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1165392" first="Karter" last="Peterson"] (2025) |6-2 G| Thompson </strong>- Elite scorer, can score inside or out. </p> <h3><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Schedule</span></strong> </h3> <p>MN Comets Shootout (St. Cloud, MN) April 17 &amp; 18 </p> <p>Pentagon Spring Jam (Sioux Falls, SD) April 24-25 </p> <p>AYBT Tournament (Harrisburg, SD) May 2</p> <p>Pentagon Hardwood Challenge (Sioux Falls, SD) June 5-6 </p> <p>Great Plains Comet Alliance (St. Cloud) June 24-26</p> <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Recognitions</strong></span></h3> <p><b>Best Rebounder: [player_tooltip player_id="1165347" first="Calvin" last="Garmann"] </b></p> <p><b>Top Scorer: [player_tooltip player_id="1165392" first="Karter" last="Peterson"] </b></p> <p><b>Defensive stopper: [player_tooltip player_id="1165097" first="Ben" last="Gudajtes"] </b></p> <p><b>Most Improved:  [player_tooltip player_id="1165391" first="Nolan" last="Weidner"] </b></p> <p><b>Hardest Worker: [player_tooltip player_id="1165355" first="Grant" last="Cosley"] </b></p> <p><b>Most Unselfish:  [player_tooltip player_id="1165348" first="Drew" last="Passa"] </b></p> <p><b>Mr. Gritt: [player_tooltip player_id="1165343" first="Brady" last="Haugen"] </b></p> <p><b>Best Rim Protector: [player_tooltip player_id="1165392" first="Karter" last="Peterson"] </b></p>
