VanTimmeren is an All-State TE on the football field and has committed to the Central Michigan Chippewas. That being said, he’s a really solid basketball player as well. The athleticism and strength that make him such a high level football player certainly transfers over to the hardwood. VanTimmeren is in select company, winning state titles in 2 different sports.

Pokorzynski is listed as a small forward, but with the game the way it is today, I like him as a floor stretching wing. He’s a matchup nightmare with his ability to play both inside-out as well as outside-in. Pokorzynski can finish over and through his defender and reads the ball well off the rim when searching out a rebound. He has 3 point range on his jumper that creates a lot of space for his teammates.
#3
Regnerus is climbing the recruiting rankings in a hurry. He’s a long post that knows how to take advantage of that physical profile. He plays good vertical defense with his arms straight up, not folding or reaching for the ball. This allows Regnerus to challenge a ton or shots and block quite a few as well.

Hardy is a big time talent from Kent County. He’s a grinder in the gym that works on his skills and his physical strength on a consistent basis. The smooth lefty is able to attack from, and score from, multiple spots on the floor. Hardy is a tough above the rim finisher with 2 hands.
#1
Ouwinga has clibed the rankings ladder in a hurry. He recently received an offer from Eastern Michigan University. He’s athletic with a solid physical profile that fits at the next level. Ouwinga has developed solid post footwork and he’s earning more scoring opportunities and defensive stops because of it. His ceiling is very high and next level coaches are certainly seeing it.
