Not only did the state championship guard play well and win a lot of games, his scholarship options exploded in a big way. Hill has added offers from the following schools this month:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Jacksonville State</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Purdue Fort Wayne</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Chattanooga</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Wyoming</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Indiana State</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Illinois State</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Tennessee Tech</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Ohio</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Add in Montana and an offer from Cal State Bakersfield from last year and that is ten D1 offers from the point guard,</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1819128"],"_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-6a6288a664239"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bryce had a fantastic month of production that started at the tail end of June and then continued to July in a pair of Prep Hoops events. Jamestown, Northern State, Concordia-St Paul, St Cloud State, Michigan Tech and Sioux Falls watching him often. They were joined by North Dakota State and then North Dakota in July and UND offered Gaustad yesterday. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126118"],"_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-6a6288a664261"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The pass first, hard working defender, state championship point guard recently added the scholarship option to state home and play for St. Thomas. In addition, Tyler also added July scholarship offers from South Dakota State, North Dakota, and Sam Houston State to go with an offer from Ohio. Forest now has a very strong group of schools to pick from as visits start in later August (although visits can happen this week as well). </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126102"],"_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-6a628cc8d87a5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Udean had a monster, monster shooting game in front of 247 Sports Analyst Eric Bossi and 24 hours later Udean was in the national rankings of 247 Sports Top 250. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Udean had a massive week in St. Louis scoring 118 points across four games making 45 percent of the three he took (I am guessing the total was about 19 of 40 if my math is correct which is pretty strong three point shooting numbers). Then in Dallas, Jaeden was named All Session Second team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126458"],"_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-6a628cc8d87fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Luke has earned a bag full of local scholarship options and then took to UA Rise play the past few weeks. He scored over 23 points a game this past weekend and there were some Summit league teams there watching. Time to keep an eye on if a D1 steps forward while several D2s continue to track the sharp shooter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2052332"],"_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-6a629169db636"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Trey had a great showing at both the Great Plains Alliance and then 2K26 and he did it in front of the Minot State staff watching regularly. After seeing Theis score four/five times a game, hit the three when he had a chance, defend hard and rebound in good numbers, Minot State had Trey on campus and he committed. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2877054"],"_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-6a629169db6c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Looking for more proof that so many Minnesota teams that travel more than they stay home look ridiculous compared to those that play local? </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Look at [player_tooltip player_id='2877054' first='Asher' last='Wieberdink']. His schedule for the summer was MBCA Camp, Great Plains Alliance, 2k26, and the Fury/Heat Summer Shutdown. While he was at those events rim running for rebounds, rim finishes and showing off his agility at 6'7/6'8 he had a ton of Northern Sun schools watching and giving him opportunity. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Asher can now pick between Minnesota State-Moorhead, Sioux Falls, Northern State, and Southwest Minnesota State when it comes to scholarship options. Four really good options. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
