2025 Rankings Update: Class AA New Additions (Part 3)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another group of senior-to-be names as we prep for a list that is not just for the high scholarship levels but for NAIA schools, D3 junior varsity teams, and the numerous Minnesota junior colleges. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2445445' first='Braden' last='Blanchard'] of Rockford (6'4, Pf). Rockford had a better year than expected and it was guys like Blanchard that played better than expected leading the team. Blanchard led the team in scoring and rebounding plus did other things well because he is a player that competes, hustles and fights. That goes a long way. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2445574' first='Bryant' last='Knaus'] of Kimball Area (6'3 Sf). Knaus is one of the more athletic players in his area and he used that agility and explosiveness to score 17 points a game this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2175461' first='Joren' last='Olson'] of Watertown-Mayer (6'9 Big). Olson is an old school center that took a nice step this year. He scored seven a game, rebounded more and was low post size. He along with guards [player_tooltip player_id='2618748' first='Nathan' last='Ragner'] and Henry Janikula will be the senior core that leads the crew into next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2445581' first='Seth' last='Staloch'] of Osakis (6'7, Pf). Staloch is strong, big body active four man that has the physical tools to be an excellent ball screen and deep paint defender as well as active scorer and rebounder that gets double doubles. Think a taller defensive end type on the court. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2175457' first='Isaac' last='Tollefson'] of Southwest Christian (6'0, Pg). Came back from an injury last year, to help Southwest Christian be an improved program and team scoring 14 a game. Isaac can shoot it but he also can run the team so this is a combo guard that you must locate for multiple reasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2445429' first='Noah' last='Wagoner'] of Blake (5'10 Pg). Blake was a deeper team this year and Noah was a part of that giving them both another handle and another wing option to stretch the defense. Noah was one of four double figure averaging Blake players (along with Grayson, Carson and Omar) and is one of three of those returning double figure scorers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2445568' first='Gavin' last='Wang'] of Annandale (6'7 Big). The Cardinals had a mixture of seniors and sophomores that made them a top five team in state. And in between? NDSU football commit [player_tooltip player_id='2445568' first='Gavin' last='Wang'] who is 260 pounds of low post player that was the leading rebounder and third leading scorer for his team at 12 points a game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
