13 Stock Risers
14-9 record, lost in SoDak 16, 9.9 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 5.3 apg. He ran the point in HS ball at 6’7″, obviously Brooks is gifted and skilled. Ben is a stat stuffer and a difficult matchup. Long arms, soft shot, nice pull-up game, he makes everyone better. Sky is the limit.
Highlights

Highlights
21-5 record, 2nd place finish at State. His offensive game has made leaps in the past year. Goodbary is dripping potential with his 6’8″ height, and arms that go for days. He comes well and is a difference maker on D. Soft touch & solid rebounder.
Highlights
19-5 record, 2nd place at State, 8.1 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.3 apg, 45.5 FG%, 45.1 3FG%, 1.8 3FGPG. Had a great State Tourney. In AAU, Talley is scoring from behind the arc and at the rim. He is a smooth shooting wing but also has the skills & feel to run the PG spot.
Highlights
20-2 record, lost to Hot Springs in SoDak 16 qualifier. He proved to be a gamer and big-shot maker during the HS season. Kieffer has been great in AAU. Lightning quick, can get his shot off anytime that he wants, has a picture-perfect pull-up J. Active & tough on-ball D.
13-8 record, lost in SoDak 16, 7.1 ppg, 5.1 rpg, 2.4 apg, 36.4 FG%. The Lynx will be one of the best in AA next season. PG the last two seasons, will be a veteran as a 11th-grader. Very, very, fast & athletic. Multi-sport stud. Has improved as a leader.
Highlights
21-5, 2nd place at State, voted to the All-Tournament Team at State. He plays mature beyond his years. Cole is a natural athlete with razor-sharp skills. He has played well this spring on the New Balance Circuit. A bucket from beyond the arc but also can slash-n-score.
Highlights
21-4 record, 3rd place at State. Had a great State Tournament. Missed 1st ten games of season, when Stormo came back, he made the team go. He is scoring from all levels in AAU, played solid D, matchups well with wings and forwards. A very versatile player.
19-5 record, 4th place at State. Did not play ton of varsity but did some nice things. Noll has played well this spring w/ SSA 16U Black. He is a standout defender w/ great quickness. His mid-range jumper is nice and he can stroke it from three. Makes plays w/ quickness off the bounce.
Highlights
15-9 record, State Qualifier. Harrisburg is very high in this young point guard! Feeldy is aggressive on the court, has eyes like a Tiger, pushes the tempo, and gets his team into their stuff. DISTRIBUTOR, Rockstar on-ball D, twitchy quick, fast reactions, improved leader.
16-7 record, lost in SoDak 16. This kid is BIG, strong, physical, and a freak athlete. Koepsell is gritty and tough. He will also space the floor and drill 3-pointers. Luke is a lefty with a soft in-rhythm shot. He anticipates well and is a versatile defender.
16-7 record, lost in SoDak 16, 8.4 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 5.3 apg, 2 spg. He is a gym rat with a high hoops IQ. Klundt is a leader, floor general, distributor, and facilitator. 5.3 apg for a soph is impressive! Cruz is crafty, clever, smart with the ball, and also controls the tempo.
Highlights
15-6 record, lost in Region Quarters, 9.5 ppg, 3.8 rpg, 1.5 apg, 1.5 spg, 32 3FG%. Broke the Beresford single game 3-point record this season. His batteries never run out, Hamm has a crazy motor. Makes plays happen with hustle. Annoying & frustrating on D. Opportunistic scorer.
