<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We scanned Class AA basketball section by section to give you the TRUE under the radar talents of Class AA hoops. 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!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section One</strong>. Senior Drew Schindler of Chatfield. An intelligent scorer for the Gophers who put up 16 points a game last season and did it with his scoring touch in a number of different ways. Schindler was an all league player last year and a reason we think Chatfield will take a step forward this winter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Two</strong>. Senior [player_tooltip player_id='962308' first='Hayden' last='Niebuhr'] of Maple River. Niebuhr took a really nice step forward last season and into the summer as a consistent rebounder and low post finisher. Hayden is a strong 6-foot-7 and his development gives Maple River another element as a contender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Three</strong>. Senior [player_tooltip player_id='1225659' first='Eli' last='Nelson'] of Paynesville Area. Nelson will be a three year starting point guard who has a really steady handle and a solid scoring touch when he's able to attack and attempt shots on balance. Nelson scored 12 points a game as a junior. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Four.</strong>  Junior [player_tooltip player_id='1288695' first='Tysen' last='Hayes'] of St. Paul Academy. Hayes is a big wing listed at 6'6 who is really good spotting up and hitting with feet set. Hayes combines his ability to score with the face-up jumper with a low post game that produced double figure points a game as an underclassmen. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Five</strong>. Senior Cole Gilbert of HLWW. Gilbert is a solid 6'4 rebounder for the Lakers and he's coming off of a 12 point, 7 rebound per game season. Gilbert is an excellent shooter that knocked out nearly 80s threes last year and did it with a really nice touch with great range. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Six</strong>. Senior Anthony Dass of Sauk Centre. Daas scored 13 points with six rebounds and 2.5 assists a game last season for a 20 win team. A 6'2 all league player that is a really good passer that can create for others but also a nice shooter that can score at the arc. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Seven. </strong> Senior AJ Roen of Rock Ridge. There has been a lot of talk about all the good players coming together for the first year of Rock Ridge and one of those key guys is AJ Roen. Roen is a 12 point per game all league player that plays around the basket and on the perimeter. Good footwork in the post and working around screens. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Section Eight</strong>. Junior [player_tooltip player_id='1419970' first='Brevin' last='Stoa'] of Hawley. All league playmaker that averaged 13.5 points and 4.5 assists a game a year ago. Stoa plays point guard and has great size for the position at 6'3. Has always been a solid scorer but has really taken a step forward in running a team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
