<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2436020' first='Jaiden' last='Gholson'] - The 2030 five-foot-eight-inch Rosemount guard will be playing JV/Varsity as an 8th grader this Winter and he showed lots of reasons why should be. Smooth easy deep 3-pointer shooter with good accuracy making a number of triples in the 5-on-5 contest. Ability to handle the ball and be the lead guard on the attack. Gholson also was able to drive and facilitate multiple times getting paint touches and finding open shooters or teammates for scores. Gholson also showed willingness to guard a much taller player than himself, and held his own moving side-to-side multiple times in one-on-one chances.</p>

<p>Jeremiah Nkunda - Nkunda is a 2030 guard from North Dakota that had some shiftiness to his dribble not fully formed yet but the five-foot-nine-inch guard displayed traits of good growth. Nkunda's most impressive quality right now is outside shooting and he showed off in the 5-on-5 contest knocking down a number of triples. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2848608' first='Carter' last='Neutz'] - Neutz is a six-foot 2030 forward from Annandale that I've seen a few times playing with [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] over the past year. Neutz skills have definitely improved and along with his constant motor on offense and defense he's a force. Neutz rebounds constantly creating opportunity. Defensively he holds his own well positionally and with growth he'll be a quality inside player.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2974544' first='Jacoby' last='Sullivan'] - The five-foot-two-inch 2032 guard from [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] showed good outside shooting and a good IQ for the game for a 6th grader, which makes a lot of sense since he is the son of former Iowa State and Tartan standout Jake Sullivan and younger brother of JJ Sullivan. Sullivan showed savvy moves going to the basket and despite his size he is a solid finisher.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2977933' first='Tannar' last='Beuning'] - Beuning is a five-foot-seven-inch 2030 combo guard from St, Cloud Tech that passed and wasn't selfish and showed off a jump shot that has solid mechanics on a 3-pointer he hit from the right wing. Beuning attacked the rim off the dribble a couple times driving and finished while being fouled one time. In transition Beuning attacked with good aggression and showed patience with the ball.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2859949' first='Maddox' last='Axdahl'] - Axdahl is a five-foot-seven-inch 2032 guard that made a couple lay-ups and seems knowledgeable as a player. As a 2032 6th grader Axdahl has solid size already for a guard and that should enable him to be stronger with the ball as a handler as he grows and matures.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2915331' first='Caleb' last='Omare'] - Omare is a 2030 five-foot-eight-inch guard from Wayzata that made a 3-pointer on a shot that looked fairly effortless and Omare had a good release. Omare is an ok finisher around the basket and made the opportunity at the basket.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2932468' first='De'Ivory' last='Gibson'] - Gibson is a 2030 five-foot-six-inch guard that used his hands to poke away the ball for a steal, displayed fine ball handling, drove to the basket hard, and showed he was able to make 3-pointers on a shot he hit.</p>
