All Wisconsin Dominate 15s. All Wisconsin likely had the best combination of size at each position, prospects, and strong team play at the 15u level of play. They won their games by 51, 20, 34, 22, and 24 points heading into the title game and then knocked off a Fury Antl team that entered the title contest at 36-3, and won that game 76-64. Chapman Basketball Academy and Wisconsin Academy are good teams and All Wisconsin beat them by a combined 46 points in the elite eight/final four games.
Fury and All Wisconsin played a competitive, one score game for most of the contest, until the end. All Wisconsin’s size advantage at every spot seemed to wear on the Fury and in the final moments guys like 6’4 Sawyer Durkee Sawyer Durkee 6'4" | SG Bay Port | 2026 State WI , 6’9 post Andrew Jensen Andrew Jensen 6'9" | C Kaukauna | 2026 State WI , and 6’5 big guard Ethan Joling Ethan Joling 6'6" | PG Hortonville | 2026 State WI eventually overwhelmed the smaller players trying to defend them (they combined to shoot 24 of 33 from the field). And All Wisconsin did a great job as a team getting these players in position to make the plays needed to win the game.
Andrew Jensen Andrew Jensen 6'9" | C Kaukauna | 2026 State WI , The Stock Riser. . Andrew is a 6-foot-9 post player from Kaukauna and he’s a player I could see developing into one of the best prospects in Wisconsin. He runs well at 6’9 and has a frame that has some muscle to it, and can add muscle to it without hurting his agility. He moves his feet well in the post and has good agility. Andrew finished explosively getting off his feet quickly and his post position was deep and his shoulder turns after the catch were balanced and quick. He finished the title game with 16 points on 8 of 12 shooting with 14 rebounds. It’s my only viewing of him so far but that one viewing has me thinking Jensen has a great future ahead of him as he continues to work and progress.
Ethan Joling Ethan Joling 6'6" | PG Hortonville | 2026 State WI (MVP). Ethan is a versatile, 6’5 guard that also seems to have really strong potential. He’s blossomed in a strong way with this All Wisconsin team playing both point guard and the wing spot. At his size and age, the comfort with which he was beating six foot guards was eye catching, and his lateral movement defensively keeping a top Minnesota 2026 guard in front of him was almost more impressive. Joling went at the rim for 22 points in the title game scoring on 9 of 12 shots as the Fury had no player with the size or the agility in the backcourt to try and slow Joling.
Top Performers
Sawyer Durkee Sawyer Durkee 6'4" | SG Bay Port | 2026 State WI of All Wisconsin. As we explained the Fury had a lot of trouble with the bigger, talented players from All Wisconsin (obviously, lol, everybody does) and Durkee was the third option that produced in a high percentage way. Durkee scored 13 points on 6 of 9 shooting with seven boards.
Alex Schroepfer Alex Schroepfer 6'4" | SF Eagan | 2026 State MN of Minnesota Fury . We have spent a lot of time this off-season talking about Eagan players and Alex might be the most impressive we have seen this spring/summer (in one individual game mind you). I really like the skill level at forward that Alex has and his ability to get a couple dribbles into an attack and score against a good group of Wisconsin players really caught my eye. He scored 18 points on 8 of 13 shooting against some of the elite players in Wisconsin at their position.
Bennett Skinner Bennett Skinner 5'11" | PG East Ridge | 2026 State MN of Minnesota Fury . Skinner is a shooter to keep in mind for this winter at the varsity level for East Ridge. He scored 15 points in the title game yesterday, Bennett knocked out a half court game winner this week to beat Team Tyus 14s, and he;s one of the better perimeter shooters I’ve seen in his class of Minnesota players.
Kayden Oakland Kayden Oakland 6'4" | SF Northfield | 2026 State MN of Minnesota Fury . Oakland is a Northfield wing with a good frame and a good skill level. Oakland played for his varsity team in the Big Nine this past year scoring six a game and you can see that he is physically ready to be an impact, double figuring scoring starter for his team next winter. Impressed with what he did in the title game.
