He started the game with a 3-pointer to take the early lead. Isaac made multiple college-range 3-pointers. He also had multiple made 3-pointers in transition. Cody showed a smooth running floater in traffic. I like how quickly he sets his feet before his shot. He can put up points in a hurry. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1144600" first="Carter" last="Zeller"] (2024) |6-6 PF|</strong></p> <p>15 points, 5-6 FT’s. He fights for every rebound. I loved his patience in the post, his shot fakes, and how he sealed deep in the paint. Carter has a soft finishing touch and he is a solid FT-shooter. I like how he absorbs contact and finishes physically. Carter moves very well without the ball, after his man helps he finds the open spot for a shot. Carter was great at putting back offensive rebounds. Nobody from the Sabers could match his strength around the basket. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1144475" first="Jeremiah" last="Sem"] (2024) |6-3 G|</strong></p> <p>22 points, 4 three-pointers, 8-8 FT’s. He was sensational from the charity stripe. He was great at shooting triples off the dribble, with a step-back, and off the pass. Sem stood out with his hesitation-move. Jeremiah has amazing hang-time. On defense, he blocked shots and deflected passes. He dropped many dimes when he was attacking the basket, the help side would step up and Sem found the open man. Jeremiah had multiple fullcourt finishes, he is a superior athlete. He can go coast to coast in the blink of an eye. Sem is going to have a special season for the Spartans. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="812228" first="Luke" last="Loberg"] (2022) |6-3 F|</strong></p> <p>10 points, 2 three-pointers. He is a very serious scoring threat. His 3-point shot looked good in the first half. Loberg scored off pull-up jumpers and by spacing the floor and hitting in catch-and-shoot situations. Luke has great footwork and hands.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1180420" first="Nathaniel" last="Kallod"] (2022) |6-1 G|</strong></p> <p>5 points, 1-2 FT’s. He had an impressive steal which led to a physical finish in transition. I liked the way Kallod jumped stopped and gathered himself. From there he used a shot fake to draw a foul and get to the line. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1334664" first="Peder" last="Haugo"] (2024) |6-3 F|</strong></p> <p>He is a physical defender and hard worker.

This lefty is an impressive and very strong athlete. He battled all game on the boards and Kellogg snagged many O-boards. On defense, Jaxon had an impressive pass deflection on an in-bounds play. In transition, Kellogg had a huge tomahawk block that sent the ball flying out of bounds. He showcased multiple physical finishes where he kissed the shot off the glass. Jaxon had a nice basket cut bucket. Kellogg was the best player for the Sabers on Saturday. </p> <p><strong>Kiefer Glenn (2022) |6-2 F|</strong></p> <p>6 points, 2-4 FT’s.

Zander is a quick leaper with a great vertical. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="812223" first="Joey" last="Buzalsky"] (2022) |6-0 G|</strong></p> <p>10 points, 1 three-pointer, 5-8 FT’s.
