Faribault 92 Park of Cottage Grove 88: Breakout Performers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Faribault beat Park in a a fun, exciting overtime game and within that contest there were several breakout games. We run through those performances now!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2115655' first='Ryan' last='Kreager'] of Faribault (6'10 2026). Ryan is a nationally ranked big and several colleges are aware of him. He had a really good game at Hill-Murray this year but I don't know that a ton of eyes were on him for that game. But yesterday at the Southern Minnesota Hoop Fest the eyes were there and Ryan performed at a high level. Kreager had a 27 point, 13 rebound, four block game shooting 13 of 17 from the field. Kreager ran the floor hard to the rim to finish off possessions at the rim and did so with numerous dunks. He also showed a touch on the shot, balanced shoulder turn make and defensively his shot contesting/blocking and defensive rebounding finished a ton of Park possessions. In fact, Park needed 18 threes to be made to stay in the game because Kreager controlled the middle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Keager and [player_tooltip player_id='2118832' first='Breuer' last='Wolff'] are a really tough junior combo of players to deal with . Wolff a tough and active 6'6 forward, had 23 points 23 points on 10 of 17 shooting plus he grabbed seven boards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1617784' first='Miskir' last='Esayas'] of Park of Cottage Grove (6'3 2025). This is the second time I have seen Miskir play this season and he's really been impressive. There is range to his jumper, he's a fairly decent athlete going to the rim at 6'3, and there is a confidence to him that a lot of players don't have. Park is a better team that I expected them to be and Miskir is a key reason why.Yesterday against Faribault, Miskir hit seven threes and 12 of 24 shots overall to put 32 points on the board with five assists. He is averaging 19 points a game this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2109883' first='Mohamed' last='Madey'] of Faribault (6'3 2025). Something that many young people won't take as a compliment but it really is..... I don't think Mohamed had a great game yesterday, and he still led his team to a win with 32 points! I just complimented Esayas above and Madey had the same amount of points (32) on the same amount of makes (12) on less shots (21). Plus, Madey had 13 rebounds and six assists! He is a 6'3 player with skill, almost too much confidence, and he plays with a fire that a coach would rather have than not, although he almost gets too fired up a times. And the good thing there, he is always locked in. Madey has a lot more potential than I think people know. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Madey is averaging 23 points, six rebounds and nearly four assists a game this year and he went over 1,000 points for his career yesterday </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2422764' first='Anthony' last='Giadyu'] of Park of Cottage Grove (5'11, 2025). Anthony leads Park in scoring this year at nearly 21 points a game and yesterday he had a rough start. However, after just two baskets in the first half, Anthony attacked the cup relentlessly and the Falcons did not have a ball pressure guy, or a guard that could laterally move with him. Giadyu had a 28 point game making half of his 18 shots (including four threes) and his push off defensive rebounds was outstanding. And several were his own d-boards as he had nine rebounds for the game. Love his attack game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2423150' first='Aaron' last='Sandin'] of Park of Cottage Grove (6'2, 2026). Sandin is a player I like. He and [player_tooltip player_id='1560748' first='Brandon' last='Bihm'] are nice junior guards for Park and yesterday Aaron hit four threes plus he grabbed four rebounds and dished out four assists. He's a nice all around player and he and Bihm (a 6'1 guard) are steady players that I think will keep improving and continue to make Park a solid team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
