THE FAVORITE – KIMBERLY
Last season’s co-champs won’t be as deep or as talented on paper, but do return a solid 1-2 punch in the backcourt in

Got got big minutes for the Spartans as a freshman and based on his summer, will be one of the top players in the FVA as a sophomore. Clark was second on North in scoring last season at 11.9 ppg. He shot 50.5 percent from the floor and also grabbed nearly five boards per outing.
SURPRISE PLAYER –
Amari Allen

Right now, Allen is either the No. 1 or No. 2 player in Wisconsin’s 2025 class. The 6-foot-5 wing is clearly an instant impact player for Kaukauna, even in a league as good as the FVA. Likely a high major prospect, Allen checks a lot of boxes athletically and has a unique all-around game for his age.
