Fish was a starter at West Fargo Horace last season and he averaged 13.7 ppg, 9.5 RPG, and 1.6 apg. Carvin knocked down 23 triples with 35.9 3FG% and shot 60.6 FT%. Expect Carvin to be a double-double type of player. He will be a mismatch problem with his shooting and slashing ability at 6'6". The Wambdi should be a top 3 team in Region 1 with the addition of Fish.   [player_tooltip player_id='1653800' first='Yohana' last='Ajwanga'] |6'5 PF| Milbank   I watched him play this summer at the MSUM Team camp and Ajwanga was impressive. Yohana is still learning the game of basketball and he keeps improving. Yohana is intriguing with his size, length, and long arms. He is also a fiery player with athleticism. I like how he crashes the boards and fights for the ball. When posting up, he is not afraid of contact and I liked the looks of his drop step. Look for Ajwanga and the Bulldogs to be competing for a top 3 spot in Region 1.   Jaxson Wildung |6'2 G| Milbank   I really liked the looks of his game this summer at MSUM. Jaxson stuck out to me as an aggressive, strong, and physical wing player. Every time that he touched the ball he was putting pressure on the defense. Wildung struck me as a playmaker off the bounce. He is a strong finisher that scores off of two feet. Look for Jaxson to eat up smaller guards this winter. He can also space the floor and hit outside shots. PHD expects Wildung to have stellar senior season.   [player_tooltip player_id='2049884' first='Jett' last='Carlson'] |6'4 F| Aberdeen Central   He was a starter for the Golden Eagles last season and Jett will have an increased role this year. Carlson and [player_tooltip player_id='1968829' first='Parker' last='Lemer'] will be counted on heavily this season as scorers. He is a long/lanky wing who can shoot the triple and will need to shoot the three well for AC to have success. Carlson is a talented multi-sport athlete. Get him on your watchlist for this winter.   [player_tooltip player_id='2105533' first='Cooper' last='Feddersen'] |6'5 F| Jones County   He put up impressive numbers as a junior with 18.9 ppg and 12.9 RPG. Feddersen has an athletic build and he dominates in the paint. He posts up hard and physically. Cooper bullies shorter defenders and takes it right at them to score at the rack. He uses his athleticism to score around the hoop. Cooper jumps and gets off the ground well to be a high-level rebounder, he attacks the ball in the air. Feddersen is a relentless player who draws fouls and lives at the line. He is a producer for sure! It will be fun to see what Feddersen can do in his senior season.   [player_tooltip player_id='2104068' first='Linkin' last='Ballard'] |5'11 G| New Underwood   He averaged 12 ppg last season, hit 39 triples, and shot 33 3FG%. Ballard is an old-school true point guard who takes care of the rock and does not get flashy/loose with the ball. Linkin is a distributor, facilitator, and creator. He does a nice job of running and initiating the offense. Linkin is also a legit 3-point shooter and a clutch shotmaker. When the Tigers need a play to be made, they want the ball in Ballard's hands.   [player_tooltip player_id='2100147' first='Joe' last='Shulte'] |6'5 F| Milbank   He has good length as a wing player. Shulte has an all-around game. Joe causes problems with his size and he can be a matchup problem. He has a positive impact on the game for the Bulldogs. Shulte can score the rock from the perimeter and inside the arc. He shoots it well and can create off the dribble.   [player_tooltip player_id='2139433' first='C.J.' last='Gainey'] |5'11 G| Huron   He is a twitchy athlete who defends and hustles. Gainey is a multisport athlete. On the basketball court, he has a quick first step and he moves well without the ball. C.J. has high-end speed going up and down the court. Gainey can hit from the outside but he stands out on the court with his athleticism.   [player_tooltip player_id='2075251' first='Boden' last='Schiller'] |6'3 F| Sioux Valley   He finished last season on a strong note and Schiller had a productive offseason where he saw plenty of improvement. Schiller is a stud of an athlete and he will be a difference-maker for the Cossacks this season. He stands out on the defensive end where he locks up the opposing team's top player. PHD is expecting Boden to have a Rockstar senior season and for Sioux Valley to be one of the best in A.   [player_tooltip player_id='2091678' first='Caden' last='Beauchamp'] |6'3 F| Watertown   He was a starter for the Arrows last season. Beauchamp is an interior player who is a strong rebounder. Caden scores in the paint and he defends well. He holds his position around the basket and he has great upper-body strength. Can can step out and hit the occasional jump shot. Beauchamp plays much bigger than his listed 6'3" height.   [player_tooltip player_id='2100148' first='Josh' last='Kleinsasser'] |6'1 G| Hot Springs   The Bison won 20 games last season and a large part of that success was because of Kleinsasser. He averaged 14 ppg and 6 rpg. He had a splashy game against Rapid City Christian where he went off for 26 points. Josh has a quick and effective first step. He knocks shots down from all over the court. He score off the dribble and catch. Josh has a smooth floater game and sweet pull-up J. He is a smart player and a clean passer. He holds his box-outs, attacks, and fights for the ball. Josh is a shooter, he knows how to score the ball, and he does the little things.   [player_tooltip player_id='2049883' first='Brayden' last='Sumption'] |5'11 G| Leola-Frederick   He is a southpaw who had a steady junior season for the Titans. Sumption is a three-level scorer who can put up points in a variety of ways because of his creativity and skill. He is a quick backcourt player who makes plays in the halfcourt and in the open court. Bryaden is elusively quick and he can score off the bounce and/or the catch. Look for Sumption to be a 2-way player that gets the job done on O & D.   [player_tooltip player_id='2049885' first='Grant' last='Fritz'] |6'3 F/C| Aberdeen Central   He is an undersized BIG/low post that balls with high energy, favorable positioning, and extra effort. Grant's motor and extra effort are impressive, they lead to positive plays for the Golden Eagles. He can score on the interior and Fritz does not shy away from contact. He is a blue-collar player and a workhorse. He can also get up and dunk in impressive fashion. Grant makes up for his size with grit and heart.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/11/PH-NewAdditions-crop-822x540-1682534994.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/11/PH-NewAdditions-crop-822x540-1682534994.jpg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1936950" /></a></figure>
