10 2026 Prospects Impressing This Weekend

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2120490' first='Brett' last='Siroin'] - The six-foot-five-inch wing from St. Anthony Village scored 29 points versus Bloomington Kennedy Friday. Siroin made plays in transition and his athletic ability makes him a tough opponent to guard in transition especially after his picks off lazy passes cross-court. Siroin showed a bit of playmaking ability driving the seam and kicking to the corner for a 3-pointer by a teammate. Earlier in the year he scored 30 points versus Fridley on December 10th.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560749' first='Colin' last='Piper'] - The six-foot-eight-inch 2026 center put together a pretty complete game with 21 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 blocks versus Centennial in win. The blocks were impressive especially one where the opponent went right at Piper and Piper stood his ground and blocked away the shot attempt showing he can be a solid post defender. Piper shows big man abilities offensively posted up with solid footwork and does well diving to the rim on cuts away from the ball and when used as a screener. Piper&nbsp; had a 30 point, 24 rebound game versus Forest Lake in mid December.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1552751' first='Michael' last='McKenzie'] - McKenzie is a six-foot guard from Eagan and Friday night he had a season high 26 points versus Apple Valley in a 80-76 victory with 8 made 3-pointers. McKenzie showcased deep range from beyond the arc with a quick release. McKenzie shot with a defender close enough to defend on a number of the triples and it was like those defenders weren't even there. For the season he is averaging 14.4 points per game and had a 20 point game versus Rochester Century a week ago with 5 made 3-pointers.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">[player_tooltip player_id='1552751' first='Michael' last='McKenzie'] (<a href="https://twitter.com/mrmckenzie_6710?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@mrmckenzie_6710</a>) 8 3&#039;s vs Apple Valley Jan 2025<br><br>2026<br>Guard<br>Eagan <a href="https://twitter.com/EaganBoysHoops?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@EaganBoysHoops</a> <a href="https://t.co/kmCq1rSDbx">pic.twitter.com/kmCq1rSDbx</a></p>&mdash; StreetHistory Videos (@streethistory) <a href="https://twitter.com/streethistory/status/1876026298893729921?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 5, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560747' first='Alex' last='Schroepfer'] - The 2026 forward from Eagan scored 24 points versus Apple Valley Friday night increasing his average to 15.2 points per game. Schroepfer is just so skilled in all the basics of the game of basketball. Good passer as a creator for his team and the offense like the two times he dribble far enough to make the defense commit and he found fellow junior [player_tooltip player_id='2118833' first='Kevin' last='Kemp'] for dunks inside. He's able to handle the ball and bring it up the court, good footwork, and a real solid shooter from all over the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2271330' first='Trey' last='Parker'] - Continues consistent play with 24 points versus Eagan with 4 3's as he shot 9/19 on all shots and added 4 rebounds and 3 assists. Parker does well picking of passes from guard on the perimeter by being a free safety like defender just waiting for the lazy cross-courter.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Camare Young - The six-foot-four-inch junior made an impression all spring and summer with his style of play. Young's body type makes you think he'd be an inside bruiser but his agile agility and athleticism makes him a tough guard from the perimeter to the paint. Versus Eagan he scored 19 points on 8/14 shooting including 2 3-pointers, collected 4 steals, and had 5 assists. One steal he took on an opponent on the perimeter and got into the open floor for a smooth lay-up, and one assist he posted and made the right pass to an open shooter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Matthias Bruning - Bruning is a six-foot guard from Litchfield that had 32 point performance versus GSL following 23 point game versus Concordia Academy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560769' first='Ethan' last='Sonju'] - The [program_tooltip program_id='2075709' first='MN' last='Swish'] lead guard Sonju scored 26 points versus Litchfield Friday the night after he put up a 36 point game against Hutchinson. Sonju sees the floor well and is a solid passer that plays with a good pace in transition. Sonju can play the point guard in a transitional sense, setting up the offense and making sure they have the right flow.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560806' first='Mitchell' last='Schmidt'] - Schmidt is a six-foot-two-inch forward from Jordan that is averaging 16.8 points per game. Against Hiawatha he put together a pretty complete game scoring 29 points, grabbing 7 boards, dishing out 3 assists, swiping 4 balls, and blocking 2 shots. The blocks were both in help situations where he stepped over to deny a score.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1521424' first='Kayden' last='Oakland'] - The 2026 Northfield wing put together another full stat sheet game, 33 points including 3 3-pointers, 10 rebounds, and 3 steals versus Red Wing in a 91-73 win Saturday. Oakland is just so fundamentally sound around the basketball finishing off two feet and does so well cutting and making himself open for teammates.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Game #8 highlights <br>33Pts<br>10Reb<br>3Stl<br>3/4 3pt<br>4/4 ft<br>Team win! <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachAntl?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachAntl</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/mnfuryboys?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@mnfuryboys</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/NorthfieldHoops?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NorthfieldHoops</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/RyanJamesMN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@RyanJamesMN</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/FreshCoastHoops?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FreshCoastHoops</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/AndOneFilms?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@AndOneFilms</a> <a href="https://t.co/rEUjlUv6eP">pic.twitter.com/rEUjlUv6eP</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1521424' first='Kayden' last='Oakland'] (@kaydenOakland2) <a href="https://twitter.com/kaydenOakland2/status/1875954045535522891?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 5, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html -->
