<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Preseason Player of the Year: </strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1759936' first='Carson' last='Hoogeveen'] (West Lyon)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>West Lyon was the #1 team in 2A for a good chunk of last season, and Hoogeveen was the biggest reason why. A highly skilled guard who can score and facilitate at a high level, he'll pace the Wildcats again this season as they battle it out with Unity Christian, MOC-Floyd Valley, and others at the top of the league.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>First Team</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1759936' first='Carson' last='Hoogeveen'] (West Lyon): 16.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.9 steals, 39.7 3P%</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A high IQ guard who can create plays off the dribble for himself and his teammates, Hoogeveen had a great junior year after putting together an excellent 16U summer. He sees the floor extremely well, can score from anywhere, and is a pest on the defensive end as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='2413578' first='Dylan' last='Bosma'] (Unity Christian): 14.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 2.3 steals, 88.6 FT%</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A tough, physical guard who likes to play downhill and get to the rim, Bosma is one of the better two-way guards in small school basketball. He's in complete control of the game on both ends of the floor and uses his IQ, toughness, speed, and talent to dominate games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='2413600' first='Austin' last='Wieringa'] (Unity Christian): 12.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.0 steals, 52.1 FG%</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wieringa is kind of in a similar mold as Bosma, a tough, physical guard who doesn't shy away from contact around the rim and isn't afraid to mix it up on the glass or defensively against bigger bodies. They form the best one-two backcourt punch in the always loaded Siouxland.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='1765526' first='Carter' last='Kleinwolterink'] (Boyden-Hull): 17.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 steals</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kleinwolterink is the leading returning scorer in the conference, coming off an impressive sophomore season in which he led the Comets in nearly every major category. He's a skilled guard who can play with or without the ball in his hands.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1426697' first='Ephraim' last='Hoefert'] (Central Lyon): 12.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hoefert is a long, rangy wing who shoots it well from 3-point range, can defend multiple positions, and is solid on the glass. He moves really well without the ball in his hands and shoots it well off the catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Second Team</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='2398061' first='Blake' last='Aalbers'] (MOC-Floyd Valley)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='1765545' first='Kaden' last='Van Schepen'] (Rock Valley)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1523401' first='Ahman' last='Langton'] (MOC-Floyd Valley)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1951824' first='Braeden' last='Bosma'] (Unity Christian)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='2397298' first='Easton' last='Jacobson'] (West Lyon)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Honorable Mentions</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2026 Ben Byers (Sibley-Ocheyedan)<br>2026 Caleb Simington (Okoboji)<br>2025 Cooper Jansma (Sheldon)<br>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1573093' first='Koury' last='Serck'] (Central Lyon)<br>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='2731892' first='Jordan' last='Meyer'] (West Lyon)<br>2026 Colby Den Hartog (Rock Valley)<br>2027 [player_tooltip player_id='2405597' first='Layton' last='Snuttjer'] (Rock Valley)<br>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='1978131' first='Draeden' last='Punt'] (MOC-Floyd Valley)<br>2025 Traevin Van Beek (Unity Christian)<br>2027 [player_tooltip player_id='2419800' first='Tyce' last='Van Donge'] (Unity Christian)<br>2025 Kolton Smit (Unity Christian)<br>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='2731896' first='Jared' last='Ciesielski'] (West Lyon)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
