Jackson Zwart Jackson Zwart 6'3" | CG Colman-Egan | 2025 State SD – 6’3 G 2025 – Colman-Egan – Jackson clearly stood out in Colman-Egan’s 64-45 win over Oldham-Ramona/Rutland. Stood out from everyone with his burst and speed on the court, along with his lengthy frame. Zwart brought the ball up with speed, pushing the tempo at a quick pace, at his 6’3 frame. Made a few impressive blocks, in which he got up high off the ground. He was solid scoring in transition and did most of his damage close to the hoop. I had him at 15 points and hitting 1 of 5 three-point attempts. Jackson is a prospect that deserves a long look from college coaches.
Logan Peskey Logan Peskey 6'4" | SF Iroquois-Lake Preston | 2023 State SD – 6’3 G/F 2023 – Iroquois/Lake Preston – The Senior was lights-out from three in the second half, scoring a total of 30 points. He was squaring-up and knocking down NBA range threes for perfect swishes. The very big-bodied guard willed ILP to a 54-47 victory over Baltic.
Jack Erickson Jack Erickson 6'5" | SF Baltic | 2024 State SD – 6’4 G/F 2024 – Baltic – Jack struggled from the field offensively, but he still showed to me to be a good prospect that can make plays on the defensive end and as a playmaking passer. Not his best game overall, but Prep Hoops Dakotas is still high on this 6’4 Junior.
Mark Ditter Mark Ditter 6'1" | PG Baltic | 2024 State SD – 5’11 G 2024 – Baltic – Ditter is a solid guard for Baltic that hit shots to contribute 15 points. Not a flashy guard but can push the ball with speed and control. Took care of the ball and hit open jumpers.
Nic Gaspar Nic Gaspar 6'2" | SG Dell Rapids St. Mary | 2024 State SD – 6’2 G 2024 – Dell Rapids St. Mary – Gaspar is a great athlete, fluid mover, and leaper. Did a nice job getting by his defender and slowed himself down to rise up and finish in traffic. Great body control and control in general when he gets ready to lay the ball up through contact to score. Had a big 1st half scoring the ball in the lane and hit some jumpers, finishing with 21 points and he also hauled down 10 boards for a double-double.
Trevon Beckman – 6’0 SG 2025 – Dell Rapids St. Mary – Beckman is a smooth and skilled offensive prospect that has a pretty jumper. An underrated part of his game might be his feel for the game, vision, and accuracy as a passer. Always on target and sees the floor at a high level. Highly skilled passer with his left hand as well. Deep range from three, and he showed that off with 18 points in the game. St. Mary blew the game open in the 2nd quarter and Trevon had a lot to do with that, as he had a continuous run of playmaking.
Maverick LeBrun Maverick LeBrun 6'4" | SG Dell Rapids St. Mary | 2025 State SD – 6’1 SG 2025 – Dell Rapids St. Mary – An unconventional three-point release from the hip but he is very accurate with it if given some space. Standing at 6’1, it seems LeBrun has length of a 6’3 prospect. Long arms, a solid handle on the ball, and a three-ball game. Has a frame to build upon and skills, so things are looking up for the young prospect. Finished with 17 points in the game.
Jake Jorenby Jake Jorenby 6'4" | SF Deubrook | 2024 State SD – 6’2 G 2024 – Deubrook Area – Jorenby was a guard that I was really impressed with overall. A good size and skill combination that translates to the next level well. Good verticality, allowing him to finish around the hoop fairly easily and consistently. A very strong finisher near the hoop. Came down with what it looked to be an ankle injury in the 2nd quarter.
Gavin Landmark Gavin Landmark 6'1" | CG Deubrook Area | 2024 State SD – 6’1 G 2024 – Deubrook Area – Landmark is a very fluid athlete and natural mover, and it is easy to see. One of the better on-ball defenders you’ll find, with his great technique and quickness combo. Great control with the ball as a ball-handler and passer. Plays with speed and pace with the ball as a ball-handler. Landmark is a next level athlete.
Landen Johnson – 6’3 G/Wing 2024 – Deubrook Area – Landen stood out in his quickness, length, and effort on the defensive side of the ball. Played heavy pressure defensively and was highly active.
Lane Tvedt – 6’0 G 2024 – Castlewood – Stud and talented guard, that plays with a ton of confidence. Really high on Tvedt. Has one of the prettiest jumpers you’ll find. Smooth three-point stroke. Led Castlewood to a win, pacing the team with 19 points and four three-pointers. Very shifty and can contort himself to get by the defense to get into the middle of the paint and become a threat.
Bryon Laue Bryon Laue 6'9" | PF Castlewood | 2025 State SD – 6’8 PF/C 2025 – Castlewood – Laue is a physical presence and the #2 rated 2025 prospect in South Dakota. An inside presence that will battle inside consistently and protect the paint. He had 10 points and five rebounds in a heavyweight matchup with Aiden Jensen Aiden Jensen 6'9" Madison | 2023 SD .
Quincy Thu Quincy Thu 6'1" | SG Castlewood | 2024 State SD – 6’0 G 2024 – Castlewood – Quincy reached double-digits and finished with 12 points in the game. Plays low to the ground and plays with great quickness on the court, especially in a transition scenario.
Booker Schooley – 6’0 G 2023 – Castlewood – Booker made an impact in many stat categories, with six points, five rebounds, four steals, and seven assists. Did a good job getting into the lane effectively and kicking the ball out to shooters.
Jamison Keszler Jamison Keszler 6'1" | CG Castlewood | 2025 State SD – 5’11 G 2025 – Castlewood – Under six-foot but is a feisty guard that plays with alertness and quickness defensively. He was getting after it in half court defense, playing in transition and getting up and down the court in a hurry. An athletic guard that has hops and is springy.
Aiden Jensen Aiden Jensen 6'9" Madison | 2023 SD – 6’9 F 2023 – Madison – Aiden is on another level physically compared to his competition. For obvious reasons, being he’s 6’9. He’s also sporting a built-up and strong frame. Already possesses a collegiate frame. He was rising up and blocking shots on the way down in this game. Loves challenging the competition at the rim. Nine points and eight rebounds in this contest.
Ben Brooks Ben Brooks 6'9" | SF Madison | 2025 State SD – 6’8 G/Wing/F 2025 – Madison -The #1 prospect in the 2025 class, is another rare commodity as far as his physical profile. Brooks, the 6’8 Sophomore is long and has a slender frame to build upon as he matures. A high-end prospect in his class, and the entire state as well. Showed the ability to hit leaning fade shots in the matchup against Castlewood. A very versatile prospect for his size, because he can nearly play all positions and can bring the ball up and handle it with no problem. Eight points and nine rebounds in the loss.
Charles Callahan – 6’1 G 2024 – Madison – Callahan led the game in scoring with 22 points, pouring in six three-pointers. So, he clearly did most of his damage and difference-making beyond the three-point line.
