Not guys that have been seen over and over, written about, and talked about, this is a true statement. Guys that haven’t hit these pages but should have, and they do today!
Section One. Junior Jayce Kiehne Jayce Kiehne 6'3" | SG Fillmore Central | 2024 State MN of Fillmore Central. Jayce was a 20 point per game scorer as a sophomore. He’s a quick to the rim, quick up the floor, quick to release, scoring threat. Good guard rebounder, forces turnovers and will have a heck of a final two seasons.
Section Two. Junior Chase Hubin of Buffalo Lake-Hector-Stewart. Another 20 point per game scorer as a sophomore, Chase scored his nine or ten buckets a game with a smooth scoring game highlighted by good length and a 6’3 guard frame. Led his team to a 10-6 conference mark last season.
Section Three. Junior Issac Post of MACCRAY. Post posted 18.7 points per game as a sophomore earning all league status in the Camden Conference last year. Isaac is a good athlete with a great first step and a 40% Club perimeter stroke that nearly hit 44 percent for the season. A weapon that will his 30 a game many times in the next few years.
Section Four. Sophomore Abu Tarawallie Abu Tarawallie 6'2" | SF Heritage Christian | 2025 State MN of Heritage Christian. Do you know what jumps off the page? 12.8 rebounds a game! As a freshman! Abu is 6’3/6’4 and well built. He’s a powerhouse in the paint that is also developing as a finisher (near ten points a game last year).
Section Five. Senior Michael Jude Michael Jude 5'5" | PG Kaleidoscope Charter | 2023 MN of Kaleidoscope Charter. Michael is a shooter, and he’s a shooter on a team that needed him to shoot a lot, and Jude performed his duty well last year: 23.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 5.8 assists a game. Some of everything.
Section Six. Senior Dezmond White Dezmond White 6'0" | PG Brandon-Evansville | 2023 MN of Brandon-Evansville. White is a six foot wing that was honored all league by two conferences and he did it as a charter member of the 40% Club. Dezmond shot 56 percent from the floor, 42 percent from the arc, and over 80 percent at the line. A pure shooter.
Section Seven. Senior Joey Bianco Joey Bianco 6'1" | PG Ely Memorial | 2023 MN of Ely. Joey is one of the better ball handlers in Class A basketball and he uses that skill as well as his quickness and aggressive approach to get middle constantly. Joey averaged 6.5 assists per game last season while also scoring nearly 23 points a game.
Section Eight. Senior Aaron Norland of Fosston. We talked about Aaron earlier today because he’s one of the more consistent, trusted, tougher players in Section 8A. Aaron will battle anybody defensively and he’s a leader. A leader on a very balanced team.
