1. Amari McCottry Amari McCottry 6'5" | SF St. Thomas More | 2024 State #304 Nation WI (St. Thomas More)
McCottry had a number of huge showings moving over to Phenom University on the Nike EYBL circuit. Looked like the state’s fourth ranked player was ready to ascend potentially into high major territory. As it stands now, Milwaukee, Miami (OH), and Grambling are the three scholarship offers for the intriguing 6-foot-5 small forward. A mismatch problem as a ball-dominant wing, McCottry posted 24 points, seven rebounds, and three assists as a junior, leading STM to a 23-5 overall record and a trip to the sectional finals.
2. Sekou Konneh Sekou Konneh 6'6" | SF St. Thomas More | 2024 State WI (St. Thomas More)
Nobody in the 2024 class arguably has the upside of Konneh. As a junior, Konneh went for 17 points and 15 rebounds per game. A long, explosive, 6-foot-7 wing, Konneh couples intriguing measurables with a sweet mid-range game. Konneh has shown huge flashes throughout his career and continues to trend upward. Indiana State, Loyola (IL), Miami (OH), and Milwaukee have all offered the St. Thomas More product. He said Xavier, DePaul, and St. Louis are also interested.
3. Stevie Clark Stevie Clark 6'6" | SF Oshkosh North | 2024 State #322 Nation WI (Oshkosh North)
Clark owns scholarship offers from South Alabama, Murray State, St. Thomas, Valparaiso, and Green Bay. A well-rounded, three-level scorer, Clark posted monster numbers for the Spartans last season. Leading North to a 16-9 record, Clark went for 24 points, five rebounds, and three assists per game. That all game while playing alongside one of the state’s top sophomores. Clark said he will take official visits to Colgate, St. Thomas, and South Alabama. He’ll also participate in the Southern Utah elite camp.
Highlights
4. Keaton Frisch Keaton Frisch 6'7" | SF Waunakee | 2024 State WI (Waunakee)
A key part of Waunakee’s 23-5 squad last season, Frisch averaged 11 points per game in a methodical, equal-opportunity offense. If all else fails, Frisch is a terrific shot blocker with defensive versatility — able to switch and defend guards. A high-upside prospect that’s not even close to his ceiling, Frisch has a chance to impact the game in a lot of ways offensively as a 3-point shooter, perimeter mismatch problem, and a post-up threat. Air Force, Lehigh, Bradley, Western Illinois, and Jacksonville are all involved with Frisch at this time.
5. Will Murray Will Murray 6'7" | SF Darlington | 2024 State WI (Darlington)
Over the summer, Murray showed a lot of value as a glue guy for the next level. Willing to stick his face in the fan, do the dirty work, and not get a lot of glory for it if it means his team wins, Murray can find his way on the floor at the next level. At Darlington, he is the guy. As a junior, the 6-foot-7 forward put up 17 points, six rebounds, and two assists per game. Murray listed Indiana State, Upper Iowa, UW-Parkside, Bemidji State, Indianapolis, Augustana, UW-Oshkosh, UW-Stevens Point, and UW LaCrosse as the schools currently showing interest.
