Blake Anderson of St. Louis Park. The Orioles knocked off Minnehaha Academy in a great team effort. Blake’s ten points and a dozen rebounds while doing his best to make sure Prince Aligbe Prince Aligbe 6'6" | SF Minnehaha Academy | 2022 State #167 Nation MN didn’t dominate them was one of many key performances helping SLP get a memorable win.
Muja Burton Muja Burton 6'4" | SF Columbia Heights | 2022 State MN of Columbia Heights. When Muja gets hot bringing out defenders, it’s over. He hit five threes and also had the space to go to the cup to score 33 points on a very good Minneapolis South team. Impressive performance from the Hylanders senior.
Isaiah Hagen Isaiah Hagen 6'3" | PG Orono | 2023 State MN of Orono. Minnesota, Orono looks to be for real. Hagen had 26 points including three three-point makes in leading Orono over Delano 78-60 in a key victory. Throw in four steals and four assists and it was a full day of quality.
Kobe Kirk Kobe Kirk 6'2" | SG Mounds View | 2022 State MN of Mounds View. There are one, maybe two handfuls of players in Minnesota that have that ability to simply explode as a scorer changing the game in an instant. Kobe Kirk Kobe Kirk 6'2" | SG Mounds View | 2022 State MN of Mounds View is one of those players and he scored 39 in a 75-48 win over North St. Paul. When he gets hot, the range and position of the defender really don’t seem to matter.
Theo Liu Theo Liu 6'4" | PF Blake | 2022 State MN of Blake. Theo! My goodness. Liu completely dominated Hill-Murray putting up 37 points with 10 boards in a big double-double before an early seat. When you score 37 points in less than 30 minutes you are doing something for the Tuesday Night Elite!
Benard Omooria Benard Omooria 6'2" | CG Osseo | 2022 State MN of Osseo. I’m guessing that Omooria was juiced after Tyirece Waits Tyirece Waits 6'1" | PG Osseo | 2022 State MN scored 34 over the weekend because in the very next game Benard put up a 30 spot himself in a 71-58 Osseo win over Moorhead. Benard hit 9 of 12 attempts at the arc and blew the game wide open.
Ashton Sivilay Ashton Sivilay 6'0" | PG Jordan | 2022 State MN of Jordan. Making a return to these pages is senior Ashtong Sivilay, one of the more surprising 30 point per game scorers I have seen in some time. Had another 30+ game (31) as the Hubmen rocked Belle Plain 96-74. Need to get over to see him play, the numbers he’s putting up are special.
Asher Zubich Asher Zubich 6'1" | PG Mountain Iron-Buhl | 2023 State MN of Mt Iron-Buhl. Asher led his squad over Virginia 90-66 with a near triple double of 38 points, 10 assists, and 7 rebounds. One of the state’s more explosive players had another big game for the resume.
