Mielenz has put on a clinic to start the season, arguably the most effective perimeter shooter in the 5A as of now. Contributing threes at a rate some athletes convert at the rim (48%), he has made it clear that he means business at the varsity level. At his best operating within a couple dribbles, the guard gets to his spots for jumpers more often than not, although he can attack the paint when needed. The shooting guard is now up to 19 points and 5 rebounds per game for Green Mountain.

As Longmont's best perimeter shooter so far this season, Gaddis has held his own through his initial opportunities. The scoring guard is most comfortable from distance, bringing a smooth release off the catch, dependable regardless of the incoming contest. Contributing 9 points with 44% from distance, Gaddis is certainly an influential name to know within this class and the Granite Peaks League.
