He's really talented and is on the middle of a great stretch of basketball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 SG Gavin VanGorp (PCM) -- 32 points (12-17 FG, 5-9 3P, 3-4 FT), 1 rebound, 2 assists, 7 steals [vs. Greene County]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A 6-1 guard who scores in bunches, VanGorp had his best game of the season against the Rams, scoring at the rim, knocking down shots from the arc, and creating all sorts of chaos on the defensive end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 SG William Seyler (Grand View Christian) -- 32 points (11-25 FG, 10-24 3P), 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 steals [vs. South Hamilton]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A 5-10 off-ball guard who shoots it really well off the catch, Seyler knocked down 10 3s against the Hawks in a blowout win. He has a quick release off the catch, moves well without the ball in his hands, and is improving as a shotmaker off the dribble as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 SF [player_tooltip player_id='2419764' first='Oaklan' last='Jirak'] (Wilton) -- 31 points (11-17 FG, 5-8 3P, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 1 block [vs. Prince of Peace]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Prince of Peace/Wilton game was an epic shootout, a 86-82 win, so of course there were a number of great performances. Jirak, a 6-2 wing, was just one of them, posting an impressive double-double while showcasing his ability to score from all three levels. He uses his length effectively on both ends of the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 SG [player_tooltip player_id='1765543' first='Quinn' last='Street'] (Osage) -- 29 points (12-22 FG, 5-9 3P), 3 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals, 1 block [vs. Saint Ansgar]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6-0 guard was great as a scorer, playmaker, and defender against the Saints last week. He does a great job getting into the teeth of the defense and finding open teammates after the defense collapses in on him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 SF [player_tooltip player_id='2419757' first='Bryer' last='Putman'] (Wilton) -- 28 points (12-17 FG, 1-2 3P, 3-7 FT), 16 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 blocks [vs. Prince of Peace]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Putman has only played in five games this season after sitting out the first chunk of the schedule following a transfer and return from Muscatine. He has picked up right where he left off during his sophomore year, including this masterpiece against the Irish. He's a physical wing who can get to the rim seemingly at will, control the glass, and impact the game in a major way defensively. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 PF [player_tooltip player_id='2721688' first='Finnegan' last='Cline'] (Louisa-Muscatine) -- 29 points (12-20 FG, 5-8 FT), 20 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block [vs. Pekin]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cline put together a massive double-double against the Panthers, pulling down a ridiculous 20 rebounds in addition to scoring at will around the rim. A physical, athletic 6-5 big man, he does a great job high-pointing the ball as a rebounder and using his frame to finish through contact. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
