Section 3AAA Rundown
The Islanders have so much senior experience that I just don’t see them being beaten this year. Not to mention Nasir Whitlock Nasir Whitlock 6'2" | PG Delasalle | 2023 State MN is by far the best player in this section and it’s not close at all. St. Thomas Academy should be the top contender though. They return nearly every player from last year’s rotation and we think Michael Kirchner Michael Kirchner 6'0" | PG St. Thomas Academy | 2023 State MN , Isa El-Amin Isa El-Amin 5'7" | PG Minnetonka | 2025 State MN , Jack Chamberlain Jack Chamberlain 6'0" | PG St. Thomas Academy | 2023 State MN , and Luke Dobbs Luke Dobbs 6'0" | PG St. Thomas Academy | 2024 State MN could be a group that team’s just won’t be able to stretch to. Then there is South St. Paul. They lost their entire rotation but the transfers that have come in the last couple years will keep them solid. Two Rivers will be decent, Simley has a great trio in Reid, Williams, and Zach Jacobson Zach Jacobson 6'2" | SG Simley | 2023 MN , and keep eyes on Highland Park and Harding who both have a lot back.
