Whitnall had a size advantage over St. Cats, and Brody used that to his advantage to have a breakout game. Parkinson finished with a team high 20 points in the win, showcasing his effort in the paint and ability to stretch the floor from three. Knocked down a few pick & pop shots from deep, and even hit a turnaround jumper from the baseline showing soft touch on his shot. Added in a big block in the first half, and helped his Whitnall team really control the glass throughout the game. The guards will get most of the attention on this team, but Brody looks like a player ready to step up with a strong senior season.
Kon had an uncharacteristically off night from three, but didn’t let that stop him from contributing in a number of other ways to lead Wisconsin Lutheran to a big win. He utilized his length on the defensive end to help limit a D1 committed forward to just 6 points, all while putting up a game high 24 on the offensive end. Kon did a great job of posting up against smaller wings, and when his shot wasn’t falling he showed he can attack the rim with composure off the dribble. Never looked rushed and just found ways to maneuver around defenders for high percentage looks. Swatted a pair of shots and also pulled in a game high 8 rebounds.
Highlights
St. Cat’s ultimately came up short against a tough Whitnall team, but Lamont still impressed in his sophomore season debut, finishing with a career high 33 points. St. Cat’s already has an inexperienced team this season, and was without a few key players, so Lamont had to take on a very large role offensively. The defense was constantly looking to collapse on him, but he showed his physical toughness by powering his way through contact for a handful of tough finishes. Also shot 5-9 from beyond the arc as his jumper looks more comfortable than last season and he got great lift when he pulled up to shoot. Defensively he was giving a D1 offered guard issues, but a couple of fouls away from the basket put him in foul trouble so his coach switched him off for about half the game. As just a sophomore Lamont has shown he has the ability to impact a game on both ends of the floor.
Wisconsin Lutheran graduated a handful of key players from last year’s team, and Grayson looks ready to step up to fill in that void. He did so to the tune of 16 points on 6-7 shooting, scoring the ball in a number of ways. When his defender sagged off he comfortably hit a three, and he also showed good lift as he knocked down a mid-range jumper off the dribble. Added in some strong takes to the basket in which he played off two feet and exploded off the floor to finish strong at the rim. Grayson is more explosive than I knew as well, as he threw down a transition dunk and nearly had a second that he was fouled on at the rim.
Highlights
Offense was hard to come by for Brookfield Central last night, but Rise still managed to put up 16 points on 6-10 shooting. He’s so fast when he gets out in the open floor, and constantly has his eyes scanning as he weaves in-and-out of defenders. Just found ways to get into gaps and get to the rim to finish while also stretching the floor for a pair of threes. He’s one of those point guards who never seems to get rattled under pressure, and because of that he’s able to dribble or pass his way out of otherwise difficult situations.
Highlights
Jack Lutz Jack Lutz 6’0″ | SG Whitnall | 2025 State WI had a quiet first half, but stepped up in the second to help Whitnall overcome a half-time deficit and come away with a win. There’s not much Jack wasn’t doing on the floor, as he was handling the ball under pressure, stepping in to take charges, finishing in transition, and knocking down open jumpers on his way to 15 points. When St. Cat’s started to go on runs to try to get back in front, Jack always seemed to come up with a play to keep Whitnall ahead.

Everyone in the gym knew Lamont Hamilton Lamont Hamilton 5’10” | PG Racine St. Catherine’s | 2026 State WI was going to be able to score last night, but with not much returning from last year’s team there were questions on who else would be able to step up. Richard looks like a name ready to step into a big role as he was one of just two St. Cat’s players in double-figures last night. He showcased a quick first step that allowed him to blow by poor closeouts and get to the rim, and went 2-4 from deep to keep defenders honest. Has a nice floater to finish over size as well. One of a handful of promising sophomores on this young Angels team.
