<p>What players around Minnesota had big Tuesday night performances? We give you the best of the best now!</p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="958677" first="Will" last="Van Scoy"] of Duluth East. Great to see/hear about Will having success after missing last season to a knee injury. In a 20+ victory over Cloquet last night Will had 18 points, 10 boards, and six assists doing some of everything to lead his team to a victory in the first game of the season. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1284139" first="Grayson" last="Okoronkwo"] of Blake. The Bears are 2-0 and the scoring of sophomore [player_tooltip player_id="1284139" first="Grayson" last="Okoronkwo"] has played a big part in their success. He pushed Blake to a one score win over Southwest Christian in the opener and then Grayson exploded for 35 in a victory over Cristo Rey. The sophomore is off to a great start and you can see him this weekend at the Breakdown Tip Off Classic against Morris Area. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="850723" first="Dylan" last="Wheeler"] of Mounds View. Wheeler scored 21 points while playing point guard for his team dishing out six assists. Wheeler went the other way and defended Centennial's best player limiting that guard to only a couple baskets. The Mustangs improved to 3-0 and did it in convincing fashion. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="958636" first="Alonzo" last="Dodd"] of South St. Paul. One of the best do it all performances came from [player_tooltip player_id="958636" first="Alonzo" last="Dodd"]. In leading his team past Fridley, Dodd handled the ball some, scored 25 points, grabbed 18 rebounds, dished out seven assists, and recorded six steals! That's the type of all around game that gets you talked about as a Mr. Basketball candidate. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1214075" first="Soren" last="Richardson"] of Northfield. The Raiders earned a 46-43 late game win over Red Wing and at times Richardson carried the team on his back. He scored an And1 late that tied the game and then led to a score that put his team ahead for good. It was the Raiders opener and Soren scored 30 of his team's 46. </p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="850706" first="Jackson" last="Loge"] of Morris Area. In a 31 point performance against New London-Spicer (a win putting Morris Area at 3-0) Jackson became the all time leading scorer at Morris Area. The person he passed? His father Kevin Loge. Jackson is 45 points from 2,000 for his career. </p>
