They're an overwhelming favorite in the division this year and Weisskopf, their best player, is an easy selection as the POY in the division.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>First Team</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2024 [player_tooltip player_id='1171685' first='Derek' last='Weisskopf'] (Williamsburg): 15.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.7 steals, 55.6 FG%, 42.4 3P%</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A future Iowa football player, Weisskopf would have also had a bright future on the hardwood had his chosen that route.
