<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We continue to talk about the new names being added to our top 175 prospects in the Minnesota class of 2029!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3710475"],"_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-6a6ba1412817a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tanner is a 6'8 five man that has good skills and can hit perimeter threes, he recently had a game where he knocked out four threes against [player_tooltip player_id='2821845' first='Malik' last='Martin'].</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>More of a player with potential that regular consistency yet but he's a young big and that can come. When Tanner adds core strength his game will really blossom. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3217892"],"_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-6a6ba141281e0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Weston is a player that is shooting up fast height wise, his profile was recently made and he's grown an inch plus since that happened! A guy to watch as a later blooming prospect because he is currently growing so fast and has tall parents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Olson is a good shooter and smart defender, plays a very efficient game. Was a key part of Hoop Habits and should be a very good player for the Mankato West rotation this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2847138"],"_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-6a6ba14128228"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A long guard/wing that did a lot of ball handling last winter for the younger Marshall teams and stepped into this role with the Stars and was one of their more consistent producers. Bly has a great feel for the halfcourt offense so he's a really good passer and a player that scores well moving without the ball cutting to the cup. Good length and good position as a defender as well, was one of the most consistent players for the Stars who were a top five team at 15u.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2844552"],"_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-6a6ba1412826a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A Dawson-Boyd varsity player last season who will move into a bigger role this winter because he can hit the three, use a quick step to get to the rim, and is a really good pressure defender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Stars were a top five team with Schwegel leading their backcourt and he went toe to toe with some of the best guards in his class and held his ground. A player that we expect to step into the Jacks backcourt and give them the depth to be a top ten team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3482070"],"_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-6a6ba141282aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Few 15u players were scoring the ball like Hogberg was in July. He was going 20+ on a regular basis and putting those points up in fast acting transition ways and bursting to the rim and fast finishing ahead of the help. One of a handful of Centennial young players that we think will really help the program take steps forward in the coming years. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2414660"],"_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-6a6ba141282e9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cotton was one of the more consistent players for a good Crossfire team and he did it with work rate. Game by game Cotton was active on the glass good for five or six boards a game and he scored his near double figure numbers in a variety of ways. During the first open period the Crossfire went at a good PLUTO program in Colorado and Cotton led the team to a win with 15 points and ten boards. A really good all around hard working player. Defensively versatile as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
