<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1046352" first="Treysen" last="Eaglestaff"] (2022) |6-5 F| Bismarck</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 23.1 ppg, 6.3 rpg 2.3 apg, 2.7 spg. Tre was All-State and All-WDA last year. He is the most talented and gifted player in Class A. Eaglstaff also has good size and length. He is a gym rat and a tireless worker. Treysen is a pure scorer and a lights-out shooter. He has committed to UND for hoops next year. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1050249" first="Alex" last="Dvorak"] (2023) |6-0 G| Dickinson</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 18.9 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 2.8 apg, 1 spg. Alex was an All-WDA player last season. He is a very quick player with fast-twitch moves. Dvorak is bouncy and he can finish above the rim. Alex can create his own shot in many ways. Dvorak is going to have a monster season and he be one of the best scoring threats in all of North Dakota. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1048689" first="Anthony" last="Doppler"] (2023) |6-4 SG| Bismarck Century </strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 13.4 ppg, 5.7 rpg, 2.9 apg, 2 spg. He was an All-WDA selection last season. This summer at the NDSU team camp, Anthony looked like the best player in the gym. He is a big guard that will be a tough matchup for every team. Doppler is a precision 3-point shooter with stellar form. He can finish with power or finesse. Anthony also has the ability to be a great defender. </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="812219" first="Carson" last="Hegerle"] (2022) |6-3 G| West Fargo</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 18.4 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 3.2 apg, 2.5 spg. He was All-State and All-EDC last year. Carson and the Packers also won the State Championship. Hegerle is one of the most explosive and dynamic athletes in North Dakota. He is great at slashing and attacking the basket. Carson is almost impossible to stop in the open court. He is an amazing finisher. Hegerle has committed to NDSU for football. </p>
<p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/67-Conner-Kraft-crop-2500x1642-1633894310.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1305460" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/09/67-Conner-Kraft-crop-2500x1642-1633894310-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1128188" first="Conner" last="Kraft"] (2023) |6-7 PF| Fargo Shanley</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 10.5 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 1 apg, .7 spg. Conner is a tremendous athlete and his stock has blown up in the past 6 months. He has interest from many D1 programs. Kraft had a great spring/summer in AAU hoops and he showed that he can compete with some of the best talent in the country. Expect a monster year from Conner and for his numbers to shoot way up. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1050246" first="Darik" last="Dissette"] (2023) |6-3 G/F| Minot</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 15.5 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 1.7 apg, 1.4 spg. He was All-State and All-WDA last year. Darik is a rock-solid all-around player. He is a great athlete and an even better defender. Dissette was one of the best cutters that I watched play last season. His 3-point shooting has improved in the past year and his range is extended. Darik is deadly off the bounce and he does the little things that do not show up on the stat sheet. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="812229" first="Ian" last="Motschenbacher"] (2022) |6-1 G| Fargo Davies</strong></p>
<p>Last season stats: 16.8 ppg, 4.5 apg, 3 rpg, 1.4 spg. He was an All-EDC player last season. Motschenbacher is a tough and gritty player. He can take over a game in the blink of an eye. He is a crafty and creative finisher. Motschenbacher has some of the best footwork in the state. Ian has committed to Northern State for hoops next season. </p>
<p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/Jeremiah-Sem7.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1224631" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/Jeremiah-Sem7-300x188.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="188" /></a></p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1144475" first="Jeremiah" last="Sem"] (2024) |6-3 G| Fargo North</strong></p>
<p>He is a special athlete and on a different level than most. Sem led the Spartans to the State Tournament last year as a freshman. His dunking and finishing at the rim are unbelievable. Sem is silky smooth and it seems like he can not be stopped at times. He can dominate a game and completely take it over. If you have not watched Sem play yet, you are missing out!</p>
