Jackson Baynard Jackson Baynard 6'0" | PG Marshall | 2024 State MN of Marshall (5’11 lead guard). Jackson is a solid, steady point guard that was really good for the Minnesota Rise last year and will be a key part of the Tigers the next two seasons.
Colton Benson Colton Benson 6'5" | SF New Ulm | 2024 State MN of New Ulm (6’3 Forward). Strong, tough, maturing and has been a monster around the basket scoring 23 points a game. Just had 32 points against Marshall making sure that everybody knows that New Ulm is the leader in that league right now. Benson and James Osborne James Osborne 6'2" | SG New Ulm | 2024 State MN have taken this program and made it very tough.
Tate Olson Tate Olson 6'5" | SF New York Mills | 2022 State MN of St. Peter (5’11 Point Guard). Another Olson who is really good at St. Peter? Yep. Tate is a playmaker and the third leading scorer for St. Peter at just under ten points a game. Excellent creator. Olson and Josh Bosacker will make for a nice backcourt for the next two years as well.
James Osborne James Osborne 6'2" | SG New Ulm | 2024 State MN of New Ulm (6’2 guard). James is scoring 18 points a game and just led New Ulm to their first conference title in nearly 30 years.

Dominick Kamrath of New Ulm (Guard). Steady, dependable player for New Ulm. Kamrath represents the rest of the excellent sophomore group at New Ulm as the Eagles use several. It’s a team that is going to be good for some time to come.
Andrew Mulder of Worthington (6’4 Forward). Mulder has scored in double figures several times and between Mulder and 6’5 big Ben Schreiber the Trojans have a nice frontcourt going forward.
Carson Schweim Carson Schweim 6'7" | SF Mankato East | 2024 State MN of Mankato East (6’3 wing). A reserve for the Cougars that scores a couple times a night and is likely to be a big piece of moving this team in to the next few years along with Jalen Hayes Jalen Hayes 6'1" | SF Mankato East | 2023 State MN and Brogan Madson.
