<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The High School Spotlight Series is back and we are excited to feature multiple teams throughout the state once again! The season is still a few weeks away, but it is never too early to look ahead at the high school season. We will be taking a look at some quick hitters, the roster and more for the upcoming season. For today's spotlight, we take a look at the West Lafayette Red Devils.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Quick Hitters</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Went 22-5 last season.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Lost to New Haven in Sectionals. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Jacob VanArsdel starts his 6th year as head coach.

Vogt returns 14.1 points and 4.6 rebounds per game as a sophomore last season. Vogt was one of the players in the in-statr 2028 class that had one of the bigger breakouts this past spring/summer. The 6'5" sharp shooter has such great positional size and length on the perimeter and has flashed some impressive defensive instincts to go along with the elite shot-making ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Key Roster Members</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2799464' first='Calvin' last='Snyder']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2807826' first='Henry' last='Umulis']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cody Boyle</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Korbyn Keen</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Chase Ostrom</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Max Smosna</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='3033336' first='Andrew' last='Pfeiffer']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gio Pacheco</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tanner McPherson</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2958534' first='Karam' last='AbuSara']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Braylon Crisp</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
