2027 Initial Rankings: Players Ranked 21-30

(21) PG [player_tooltip player_id='2419854' first='Drew' last='Fischer'] | North Scott | [program_tooltip program_id='2075630' first='Martin' last='Brothers']   Fischer is a really skilled scorer who is off to a great start to the spring with [program_tooltip program_id='2075630' first='Martin' last='Brothers'], showcasing his ability to score from all three levels in bunches. He's a good shooter both off the dribble and the catch, and is able to put the ball on the floor and attack off the dribble. He can also get his teammates involved well, seeing the floor at an advanced level.   (22) PG [player_tooltip player_id='2419752' first='Hayden' last='Schulte'] | Indianola | [program_tooltip program_id='2119712' first='Iowa' last='Suns']   A quick lead guard who can break down the defense and get to the bucket off the dribble, Schulte (pictured) has good court vision and is a talented passer. He finishes well around the rim and has good body control at the bucket. He's a good on-ball defender who moves his feet well and he has quick hands that he uses to pick ball-handlers clean. He averaged 7.1 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 1.9 assists while starting every game for the Indians.   (23) SF [player_tooltip player_id='2419754' first='Quantae' last='Alexander'] | Prairie | [program_tooltip program_id='2075605' first='Kingdom' last='Hoops']   This class is loaded with long, athletic wings, and Alexander is yet another one. He was a standout performer at our Freshman Showcase event in August and while he didn't get any varsity run at Prairie this winter, he's a big part of a bright future for the Hawks. He has great length and covers a ton of ground on both ends of the floor. He's an active defender who moves his feet well and contests shots, and he can do a little bit of everything on the offensive end of the floor.   (24) SF [player_tooltip player_id='2116043' first='Joshua' last='Jenkins'] | Johnston | [program_tooltip program_id='2075269' first='All' last='Iowa Attack']   I've said it a bunch already in previous articles, but the 2027 class at Johnston is loaded, and there's a chance that Jenkins is the best long-term prospect of the bunch. A long, 6-2/6-3 wing who does a great job using his length on the defensive end. He can create looks off the dribble for himself and his teammates and has a smooth stroke off the catch. If he can continue to improve as a ball-handler and add some strength to his frame, the upside may be as high for him as any other player in this class.   (25) SF [player_tooltip player_id='2419755' first='Tillman' last='Papcun'] | Norwalk | [program_tooltip program_id='2075605' first='Kingdom' last='Hoops']   Another program that has a strong 2027 class is Norwalk, and Papcun is one of the key pieces of that group. An athletic and long 6-1 wing, he can defend multiple positions, moving his feet well and contesting shots. He rebounds well on both ends of the floor and is a good ball-handler who can lead the break after pulling down a defensive board.   (26) PF [player_tooltip player_id='2419768' first='Tate' last='Wallace'] | Regina | [program_tooltip program_id='2075269' first='All' last='Iowa Attack']   Wallace is a physically advanced forward who had a very productive freshman season for the Regals, averaging 11.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 2.6 assists while helping lead them to the 2A state tournament. An active two-way player who can score efficiently around the rim, he has soft hands, plays with a non-stop motor, and has a strong mid-range game.   (27) SF [player_tooltip player_id='2381213' first='Jude' last='Hazell'] | Cedar Falls | [program_tooltip program_id='2075901' first='Team' last='Iowa']   Cedar Falls just seems to keep churning out talented players, and Hazel is the next in line. He's a long 6-3 wing with a big wingspan who covers a ton of ground on the defensive end. He contests shots well and moves his feet when defending on the ball. He can take smaller defenders onto the block and score, showing good footwork and touch, or he can take bigger defenders out to the arc and score off the dribble.   (28) PG [player_tooltip player_id='2272195' first='Keane' last='Jorgensen'] | Valley | [program_tooltip program_id='2270834' first='Iowa' last='United']   A lefty sharpshooter with a quick release and good form when shooting it off the catch, Jorgensen moves well without the ball in his hands and can torch teams in a hurry with his jumper. He handles it fairly well and can get his teammates involved with his ability to get by defenders and find open teammates.   (29) PG [player_tooltip player_id='2419747' first='Jeremiah' last='Slaughter'] | Council Bluffs Lincoln | Iowa Impact   Slaughter got solid run with the Lynx varsity this winter and was a strong contributor, averaging 3.1 points and 1.0 assists a game on 46-52-100 shooting. A 5-11 guard with a good feel for the game, he shoots it really well off the dribble and knows how to get to his spots off the bounce. He changes speeds well and can finish effectively with either hand around the rim.   (30) PF [player_tooltip player_id='2419783' first='Sam' last='Church'] | Muscatine | [program_tooltip program_id='2075630' first='Martin' last='Brothers']   A 6-3 combo forward who can do a little bit of everything, Church had a really solid freshman year for the Muskies, averaging 10.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.0 assists a game. He can score inside and out, and he plays hard.
