Madison West-La Follette Prospect Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>MADISON -- </strong>In a matchup between Big Eight Conference foes, Madison La Follette overcame a huge second half deficit to take down Madison West 97-93 in a WIAA regional on Tuesday...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_pdsXkrd3ku0026amp;t=428s","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_pdsXkrd3k&amp;t=428s </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2364732' first='Quincy' last='Mosley'] - 2026 - SG - Madison West</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A prospect I didn't know about coming in, Mosley jumped on my radar following Tuesday's performance. He was pretty good throughout the night, but once West's leading scorer fouled out, Mosely took his game to another level and nearly helped the Regents pull an even bigger stunner, scoring five consecutive points down the stretch. Mosley scored 15 of his 27 points in the second half. Knocking down tough, contested shots in the mid-range, Mosley had the Regents on his back at times and wasn't fazed by a hand in his face. Even against physical defense, Mosley stayed composed, got to his spots on the floor, and made some difficult attempts look easy and routine.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1561953' first='Thian' last='Riak'] - 2026 - SF - La Follette</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid has all the tools to be a special player, not only in high school, but at the next level. Riak checks a ton of boxes in terms of his length, athleticism, strength, and skillset. Think if he gets shot selection and offensive IQ in order, there's no stopping Riak. The sophomore forward had a huge second half to bring the Lancers back from the dead. Riak scored a game-high 30 points, 25 of which came after halftime, including the go-ahead free throws late. At 6-foot-5 with a strong build and budding perimeter skillset, Riak can play in isolation, take guys down in the post, shoot off the dribble, and he's a freight train when gets up and down in transition. Showcasing his defensive versatility as well, Riak was guarding West's point guards on Tuesday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1561953"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65e19a7562ebb"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2045266' first='Michael' last='Wilson'] - 2026 - CG - Madison West</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wilson elevated his stock despite Tuesday's loss. Hitting the 1,000 point mark as a sophomore, Wilson poured in 25 points before fouling out. Really like the body type and game of Wilson. At 6-foot-2, he's got a good blend of length and strength. At the rim, the kid knows how to take a bump and finish through contact. He goes up with a purpose and doesn't try to avoid defenders, thus putting up wild attempts. He goes through their chests, which is a very hard skill to learn. The lefty has some quality combo guard ability. I like him as a bigger, scoring point guard, but against La Follette's zone, Wilson could beat it with the pass and knew how to attack the gaps. Also a strong shooter from all areas of the floor, Wilson can mix it up from downtown and in the mid-range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2045266"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65e19a7562f15"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2364733' first='Aidan' last='Wiley'] - 2025 - SG - Madison West</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another new name, Wiley gave West a big boost in the first half and blew the game open with a flurry of 3's. The lefty made a huge shot in the second half as well to momentarily stymie La Follete's run. A smooth shooter who can spot up in the corners and help spread the floor, Wiley hit four 3-pointers on Tuesday. He's also very good at getting defenders off their feet and really sells his pump fake.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
