He has limitless range, gets others involved, and can break down the defense and get to the bucket, where he has really improved as a finisher. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h4>First Team</h4> <p><strong>2023 [player_tooltip player_id="956876" first="Chase" last="Henderson"], Hoover: 17.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.1 steals</strong></p> <p>The division’s leading returning returnee in both scoring and assists, Henderson can impact the game in a multitude of ways. He’ll pair with Vos to give the Huskies one of the best one-two punches in the class.</p> <p><strong>2023 [player_tooltip player_id="956869" first="Elijah" last="Vos"], Hoover: 12.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, 51.3 FG%, 48.1 3P%, 76.9 FT%</strong></p> <p>A big, physical 6-5 wing who can fill it up from all three levels, Vos is remarkably efficient, posting 51-48-77 shooting splits as a sophomore. With more shots opening up following the graduation of [player_tooltip player_id="727866" first="Manny" last="Austin"], Vos could establish himself as one of the state’s best scoring threats this season.</p> <p><strong>2024 [player_tooltip player_id="1171658" first="Trovary" last="Cavil"], Lincoln: 15.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.2 steals</strong></p> <p>Cavil had a really successful freshman year for the Railsplitters, putting up 15 points a game. Over the summer, he put forth an effort to improve his shot selection and efficiency, which should benefit his numbers and Lincoln as a whole this year. Armed with a dynamic mid-range game and excellent handles, Cavil will be an offensive force for the next three seasons.</p> <p><strong>2023 [player_tooltip player_id="1167710" first="Sam" last="King"], Roosevelt: 11.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 83.3 FT%</strong></p> <p>A 6-3 wing with a nice mid-range game, King led the Roughriders in scoring last season and is improving as a playmaker and with his efficiency. Roosevelt has a good amount of talent coming back, especially in their 2023 class, and King is the headliner of that group.</p> <p><strong>2024 [player_tooltip player_id="1171694" first="Tyron" last="Wright"], East: 10.8 points, 10.9 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, 50.0 FG%</strong></p> <p>Wright is an athletic 6-6 forward who led 4A in rebounding last season as a freshman. His offensive game is still a work in progress, but he plays with a lot of energy, has great hands, and is a fantastic athlete who rebounds at an extremely high clip. As he continues to develop his offensive skill set, watch out!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h4>Second Team</h4> <p>2022 [player_tooltip player_id="1158446" first="Adam" last="Greiner"], Ottumwa</p> <p>2023 [player_tooltip player_id="1167733" first="Jamison" last="Patton"], Roosevelt</p> <p>2024 [player_tooltip player_id="1171699" first="Ja’Vion" last="Bell"], Lincoln</p> <p>2023 Jamal West, Lincoln</p> <p>2023 [player_tooltip player_id="1167697" first="George" last="Williams"], Roosevelt</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h4>Honorable Mentions</h4> <p>2023 Kobrom Mikele, East<br /> 2024 JeCari Patton, East<br /> 2022 [player_tooltip player_id="1235022" first="Victor" last="Hatungimana"], Lincoln<br /> 2023 David Caulker, North</p>
