Evaluations: Wisconsin Sophomore ID Camp Teams 11 and 12

Team 11    A thin combination guard with deep shooting range, Hannah had his moments for Team 11 in a contest against Team 12. He scored 11 points in the contest and knocked down a three-point shot. He scores well in transition and likes to attack the basket. His perimeter shot must be respected as well. Hannah hopes to work his way into the varsity rotation for first-year Kingdom Prep Lutheran coach Chauncey Russell, but the Wolfpack returns an abundance of experience so it will be a challenge.     A thin, rangy wing prospect who could emerge as a very good defender with his length and lateral movement, King competed for Team 11 and did a solid job of playing defense, moving the ball on offense and taking his scoring opportunities when they came his way. King is one of three sophomores for St. Augustine Prep looking to make a big impact this winter for the Lions. The others are [player_tooltip player_id='2971553' first='Kendall' last='Morris'] (5-11) and [player_tooltip player_id='2971551' first='Demarius' last='Zollicoffer'] (6-2).     A thin backcourt prospect with very good ball handling and improved perimeter shooting skill, Hannah played well for Team 11 in its game against Team 12. He finished with 11 points in the contest and hit a deep triple in the process. Hannah hopes to work his way into the playing rotation for first-year Kingdom Prep Lutheran coach Chauncy Russell, but the Wolfpack return a ton of experience so it will be a challenge to accomplish that feat this season.     A quick glimpse at Wittnebel immediately leads to intrigue as he has a basketball build. At 6-foot-6 and with impressive an impressive wingspan, Wittnebel looks like a basketball player. And then when you watch him compete, your realize he has a chance to be special. Such was the case for Wittnebel at the Prep Hoops Sophomore ID Showcase in Appleton on Saturday. Wittnebel rises up well on his jump shot, has a smooth shot and can put the ball on the floor and swoop in for layups at the rim. He has good range on his jump shot and can emerge as a very good defender/rebounder due to his length and bounce. He is ranked No. 8 in the state's 2028 class and will be a player to watch closely over the next three seasons for Beaver Dam.     King competes with excellent physicality and physical strength, and can play either guard position. He knocked down a three in a contest against Team 12 while also showing the ability to handle the ball against pressure defense. King is part of the ultra-successful program at Wauwatosa West and the defending WIAA Division 2 state champions return four starters and several other letter winners so he might be looking at time on the JV2 squad in 2025-26. But his future remains bright as he works his way toward varsity competition in the future.     Klopcic was efficient and productive for Team 11 as he earned multiple trips to the foul line while also scoring at a high percentage ner the basket. A letter winner for a Fort Atkinson squad that went 17-8 under coach Mike Hintz as a freshman, Klopcic figures to be one of the key players for the Blackhawks the next three seasons due to his competitive nature and ability to insert himself into the mix for rebounds and loose balls.     Sound in almost every facet of the game, Wyngaard takes good shots -- and usually makes them -- while also moving the ball, defending and handling the ball against intense pressure. He often scores in flurries, but he can put up points in a hurry. His ability to play different guard positions while playing with good basketball intuition could earn him a spot with the varsity squad for new Kimberly coach Kam Cerroni this winter. Just a very good all-around player who ranks No. 18 in the class of 2028 Prep Hoops Player Rankings.     It's always fun to watch players evolve and grow during their high school years. Rosplochowski played big minutes at Appleton North as a freshman, and earned his way into the Top 10 in the Prep Hoops Player Rankings. And now, he has grown a few inches, added some bunce and continues to knock down shots with the best of them. He had four triples for Team 11 in an outing against Team 12 while also delivering stellar passes to his teammates. He command of his team with the ball in his hands was impressive. He has become more than just a spot-up shooter and will be a huge piece for an Appleton North squad looking to have a big 2025-26 season under coach Chris Kellett.     A good spot-up shooter from well beyond the three-point arc, Castro keep defenses honest with his ability to make shots. He is a floor spacer due to his specialty of making shots from deep. Castro is part of the very successful Kettle Moraine High School program and figures to contend for minutes either with the varsity or JV1 squads this winter.    Team 12    Some players are just wired to score. Krause is one of them. He finds his way to the basket for layups and floaters while also scoring from the mid range and from outside the arc. He attacks, attacks and attacks before resting and attacking again. He finishes at a very high level, even over taller post players in the lane. Coming off a strong freshman season at Seymour, Krause is one of several key returning players for a Thunder squad looking to contend for the Bay Conference title.     As bouncy as they come, Johnson can dunk in traffic, in the open court and in warmups about as easily as any other player in the state. He was outstanding scoring in transition for Team 12 while also showing the ability to catch the ball on the wing, take a couple of hard dribbles and then rise p for a mid-range jumper. He did also connected from outside the arc. But the thing that stands out most about Johnson is his verticality. Once he rounds out the rest of the game, he's going to be an outstanding player for Union Grove.     A physically strong and fundamentally sound combination guard who makes the extra pass, competes on defense and can shoot it from the perimeter, Cliff fit in well with Team 12. He scored when the ball was in his hands, but he was also looking to get his teammates involved on almost every possession. Defensively, Cliff has the physical strength and lateral mobility to stay in front of opponents. He saw some varsity minutes as a freshman for coach Josh Erickson at Roncalli, and figures to be in the mix again for a Jets' squad looking to repeat as champions of the Eastern Wisconsin Conference.     On a team loaded with standouts, Patterson stood out for his cerebral play. He moved the ball, he defended, he rebounded and he took shots when left open. He is one of the more talented sophomores in the proud program at Mineral Point and could very well earn his way into some varsity minutes for first-year coach Bret McGraw this winter.     A non-step, Johnny-on-the-spot kind of player, Didion loves to compete and make plays. He did both of those things while also making three shots from outside the three-point arc for Team 12 in its game against Team 11. Didion finished with 13 points in the contest, and his high energy and willingness to get into scrums for rebounds and 50-50 balls was very impressive.     Coaches also covet size and veteran Wrightstown coach Cory Haese has a promising young big man in Hagerstrom. He was able to hustle his way to 12 points for Team 12 in a game against Team 11, using his nose for the ball and quick rebounding to score near the hoop. Wrightstown has a very good tradition of winning basketball teams and Hagerstrom figures to help the Tigers continue their winning ways over the next few seasons.     An intriguing player with good size, good skill and good bounce, Whited showed the ability to score from three-point range, in transition and in the half court. He is a confidence player with the ball in his hands and can score in different ways. Whited figures to contend for varsity minutes for another very good team at Onalaska this winter, and will be a player to watch as he continues to round out his game and shot selection in the future.
