| Tate Van Regenmorter Tate Van Regenmorter 6'5" | PF Western Christian | 2023 State IA | | Western Christian | Tate has been one of the more dominating big men in Northwest Iowa. He has the size and skill to complete his game. The biggest thing that stands out when watching him is his footwork going in both directions. He has the ability to knock down threes as well, allowing him to score at all three levels. Keep an eye on Tate to have a big senior season.
| Luke Meyer | | Sioux City East |
Luke is an excellent young big man! He has great size and length and runs the court really well. He plays with a high IQ on both ends of the court. On offense, he works well out of the post scoring and passing. On defense, he can protect the rim and block shots outside of the paint. As Luke adds muscle and keeps growing look for him to be a more dominant big man in the 2025 class.
| Owen Vander Pol | | Moc – Floyd Valley |
Owen is a solid back-to-the-basket post. He is a really strong player who can hold his own down low. He runs the court well and often finds himself in a good position on both ends of the court. He has a good IQ when it comes to making the right pass and when. As Owen continues to grow and get stronger, he will rise up the boards in the 2025 class!
| Carson Bruhn Carson Bruhn 6'6" | PF Sioux Center | 2024 State IA | | Sioux Center |
Bruhn is a solid forward who can post up or knock down the three. He plays with a high motor and is always hustling after loose balls and rebounds. The lefty has a nice smooth release to his jump shot and shoots it at a high clip. Down in the post, he has a nice bag of moves he can go either left or right. Expect the junior to have a big junior season!
| Brandt Van Dyke Brandt Van Dyke 6'8" | PF Sioux City East | 2023 State IA | | Sioux City East |
Brandt is a solid stretch big at 6’8! He can shoot open jump shots at a high level and has no problem shooting over defenders. He has a good handle for his size, allowing him to put it on the deck. Around the rim he causes a lot of trouble with his length, he is often blocking shots or making it tough for the players to shoot over him. Brandt has had a good summer for recruiting, look for that to continue through his senior season.
