2025 Rankings Update: Class AAAA New Names to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We give you our new names to know in the 2025 class rankings from Class AAAA. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1874936' first='Willis' last='Crudup'] of Osseo (6'0 Guard). Played off the bench last year for the Orioles giving them guard depth and was a scoring force on the junior varsity in his time there. Had a strong performance at the Expo and is a guard that I think could have a big senior year leading the O's in scoring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2614701' first='Joe' last='Fredkove'] of Stillwater (6'5 Big). Joe scored seven a game last year and was one of the team's top rebounders. He will be a steady player for the Ponies joining the sophomore size in giving this team depth up front. Stillwater might be better than expected. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2436860' first='Jacob' last='Hudson'] of Minnetonka (5'11 Guard). Hudson has moved over from Hopkins to Tonka where there is more opportunity and I think he can help with his defense and speed. There is a need for experience at Tonka and I've liked some of the things I've seen from Hudson. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2614702' first='Emmanuel' last='Jentzen'] of Park Center (6'6 Forward). Jentzen is a quality story for this season. He didn't play varsity last year because he transferred from somewhere in Rochester I believe I was told, and then he played with [program_tooltip program_id='2075485' first='Gain' last='Elite'] who didn't play around here last 17u season so Jentzen's name remained a mystery. But people started seeing Jentzen at the Breakdwown events in June, then we saw him at the MBCA Camp, and then some other summer high school events and it was clear this was a scholarship level talent that was going to help PC. He was just offered by Minnesota State-Mankato he announced and we think he will have a huge senior year. Last thing, his answer to the Breakdown Book when they asked what his strengths are.... "You'll see". LOL. He seems to want to remain a bit of a mystery but he won't be a mystery for long. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2429912' first='Ryan' last='Mann'] of Wayzata (6'1 Guard). Mann was a very solid player for the Crossfire and it was often related to his ability to shoot the ball. He shot it with good percentages, he shot it was range, and he shot it well in the Clutch. He should give the [program_tooltip program_id='2075965' first='Trojans' last=''] an option as a good shooter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2436413' first='Nick' last='Norduane'] of Wayzata (6'8 PF). Nick had a strong year for the Fury Shepherd team this year and we saw a player with 6'8 size move well to defend and move actively to score. He also showed face up four man touch that really caught us off guard. I don't know that Wayzata will need that considering all the shooting they have, but this young man has quality potential. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2402639' first='Taigan' last='Plowman-Tate'] (6'3 Sg). Tate was injured much of last year but this off-season at 17u and in different camps he was a versatile guard playing both spots. He's a longer guard with agility that we believe could be excellent next to [player_tooltip player_id='1617722' first='Jaxon' last='Young']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
