First team:
Dylan Dunn, 6-foot-4 forward, 2024, Blue Valley Southwest:
The first-team quarterback is a rugged force in the paint, a big guy who can handle the ball and be a threat to score. He’s playing a key supportive role for the Timberwolves, who are off to a nice 4-1 start.
Gus Hawkins Gus Hawkins 6'6" | C Mill Valley | 2024 State KS , 6-foot-8 center, 2024, Mill Valley:
The KSU-signee hasn’t played a lot of minutes for the Jaguars yet this year. Will his role change after the break? Hawkins is a monstrous presence in the paint who has surprisingly skilled hands.
Tanner Heckel Tanner Heckel 6'0" | CG Lyndon | 2024 State KS , 6-foot guard, 2024, Lyndon:
This guy transitioned smoothly from the gridiron to the hard court, exploding for impressive performances from day one. He’s springy and athletic and an intense competitor. Without a lot of practice following their state football championship, the Tigers have steamrolled all six of their opponents.
JC Heim, 6-foot-3 forward, 2024, Washburn Rural:
A one-man wrecking crew on the football field, Heim is just as physical and tough around the hoop for the Junior Blues. The team has gotten off to a tough start, but Heim will provide leadership to turn things around. He chips in offense, dominates the glass, is a physical defender and makes athletic plays.
Jackson Voth Jackson Voth 5'10" | CG Cheney | 2024 State KS , 5-foot-11 guard, 2024, Cheney:
Gamer. Voth makes plays regardless of the sport. He can light it up from deep, plays a physical style and is a clutch performer. Big games like Tuesday’s meeting with undefeated Hesston are his element. He led all scorers with 15 in the win.
Second Team:
Michael Boganowski Michael Boganowski 6'2" | SF Junction City | 2024 KS , Junction City
Carter Hajek, Nemaha Central
Roman Hauser Roman Hauser 6'4" | SF Norton Community | 2024 State KS , Norton
Kaedin Massey, Lyndon
Third Team:
Sammy Dresie, Maize South
Brandon Schmelzle Brandon Schmelzle 6'2" | PF Axtell | 2025 State KS , Axtell
