<p>Van Regenmorter didn't put up eye-popping numbers throughout the week, but when you watch Western Christian play his impact on the game is evident on both ends of the floor. He's in complete control of the game when he has the ball in his hands, making the offense go, and he's incredibly versatile on the defensive end.</p>

<p>Barrantes was a force in the paint on both ends of the floor in the Thunder's two games, blocking a total of 10 shots during the week. His presence in the paint over the last three years has completely changed the way that teams can attack GVC defensively, and that was on full display again last week.</p>

<p>It may seem odd to have two Grand View Christian players on the first team, but these two were absolutely fantastic and were the only reason that the Thunder were even in the position to potentially play for a state title. Hoben was really good on the offensive end, scoring in bunches, hitting tough, contested shots, and using his big frame to get to the rim or shoot over defenders.</p>

<p><strong>2026 Jorden Meyer (West Lyon)<br></strong><em>Stats: 15.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.0 steals, 51.4 FG%, 37.5 3P%, 62.5 FT%</em></p>

<p>Meyer was ridiculously good throughout the course of the week, using his eye-popping athleticism to impact the game on both ends of the floor. He's a strong, physical wing who can play downhill and attack the rim for finishes, and he also showed that he can step out and stretch the floor.</p>

<p><strong>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='2413626' first='Landon' last='De Stigter'] (Western Christian)<br></strong><em>Stats: 13.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 53.8 FG%, 57.1 3P%, 75.0 FT%</em></p>

<p>I thought De Stigter was fantastic, especially in the semifinal and championship games for the Wolfpack. A long, skilled 6-4/6-5 wing who can really shoot it from the 3-point line, his length was a major factor throughout the week.</p>
