A pesky defender with very good length and lateral movement, Pratt-Hassan makes even dribbling the ball a challenge for opposing guards. He seems to thrive on making things difficult with his stellar defense, but he also can put the ball in the basket. As a junior for an outstanding Racine Lutheran squad that went 23-4, Pratt-Hassan averaged 9.1 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals on a very balanced and talented team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3437482"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d3f8d1bd092"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> Unranked<br><strong>New Ranking: </strong>135<br><br>Helped University School of Milwaukee to a 13-12 record by averaging 22.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists. A quick, aggressive backcourt performer who can score with floaters in the lane and from three-point range, Farrington-Coleman made 56 three-point baskets for the Wildcats and shot 37 percent from outside the arc. He possesses the lateral quickness to develop into a very good defender and also plays with good court vision on his drives to the hoop. Farrington-Coleman earned first-team all-league recognition in the Midwest Classic Conference.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2415933"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d3f8d1bd102"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Previous Ranking:</strong> Unranked<br><strong>New Ranking: </strong>145<br><br>An honorable mention all-league performer in the competitive Badger Large Conference, Thome did a bit of everything for Monona Grove as a junior while helping the Silver Eagles to a 15-10 record.

At 6-foot-7 and with a varied skills package, Wilichowski can score by putting the ball on the floor and getting to the basket. He also draws plenty of fouls from opponents and can even step outside beyond the three-point arc to score. He averaged 11.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists for the Phantoms and received honorable mention all-FRCC recognition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
