Continue ReadingThe high school season is still a few months away but with team workouts starting to take place, it is the perfect time to start previewing the season. In this series, we will be a look at some quick hitters, the top player, potential breakout player, other roster roster members and notable games of the upcoming season. For today’s spotlight, we take a look at the Terre Haute North Patriots.
Quick Hitters
- Finished 15-10 last season
- Lost to Brownsburg in Sectionals
- Back-to-back winning seasons
- Todd Woelfle returns for 16th season as head coach. 211-163 record overall.
Top Player: Braden Walters Braden Walters 6'6" | PF Terre Haute North | 2024 State IN
Things will look a little different for Walters this season after spending the last 3 seasons at Linton-Stockton. Now with a fresh start, Walters automatically comes into his senior season as the top player. We all know how great he does when it comes to things like defending, rebounding, passing, and all of that…but now as the top player, he will be looked on as one of the top scorers, a role he has never really had to face. Walters is a true ‘point-forward’ and one of the more unselfish players we have in the 2024 class. However, he will need to be much more selfish scoring wise if Terre Haute North is going to want to go on a big run this season.
Potential Breakout Player: Jack Halls Jack Halls 6'8" | PF Terre Haute North | 2024 State IN
Halls is going to be arguably the main frontcourt player for the Patriots this season. Halls is a 6’8 forward that can stretch the floor and burn opponents from the three-point line. He’s long and fairly athletic, going to dunk most dump-offs around the paint. He should pair really well with the surrounding pieces that Terre Haute north has this season.
Other Important Roster Members
- Bryce Renn Bryce Renn 6'10" | PF Terre Haute North | 2025 State IN – The 6’9″ center was another player on this Terre Haute North team that I could see having a breakout season. He is very thin, but is consistently involved in the rebounding efforts, blocked some shots, and shows his offensive skill stepping out to make a corner three-point shot at times.
- Cameron Fennell Cameron Fennell 6'0" | PG Terre Haute North | 2026 IN – Fennell is a guard that could see an increase in his role. Fennell is a truer lead guard with a good IQ.
- Brady Klopfenstein Brady Klopfenstein 6'6" | SG Terre Haute North | 2026 State IN – For being only a sophomore, Klopfenstein already has so much length at the two-guard spot. He was one of the best rebounding guards in the class as well.
- Gavin Woelfle Gavin Woelfle 5'9" | PG Terre Haute North | 2026 IN – Woelfle is a 5’9″ lead guard who just so happens to be the coach’s son. Tough player that should have a bigger role this upcoming season.
