He was thrust into the point guard role these last couple of seasons and seemed to start settling in toward the middle of last year. Gaeth is able to penetrate using both hands and can finish multiple ways around the rim. He knows how to get his teammates involved and will have plenty of weapons at his disposal with a deep Mustang this winter. Gaeth’s ability to affect the game in multiple ways will become his selling point come spring.

Elijah Gaeth Elijah Gaeth 6'1" | SG Millard North | 2024 State NE , a senior guard, is determined to make a statement this season after falling short in what could have been his third straight state championship last year. Gaeth averaged 12.7 points per game and showcased his scoring ability pouring in a season-high 27 points against Kearney. He also displayed his playmaking skills by recording a triple-double against Lincoln Northstar.

Gaeth is not only a capable scorer but also a strong rebounder, averaging 6.6 rebounds per game and notching three double-doubles last season. Defensively, he is a capable defender with his long reach and excellent anticipation skills, averaging 1.8 steals per game last season. Gaeth’s offensive skills, floor vision, and improved all-around game make him a formidable player. Alongside co-senior leader Neal Mosser Neal Mosser 6'2" | SG Millard North | 2024 State NE , Gaeth will be a force to be reckoned with in the backcourt for the Mustangs.

This 6’3 Point Guard has been catching a lot of eyes as of late and for good reason, his ability to lead his team and run an offense is a coaches dream. His offensive skill set is what is the most intriguing, I think the thing that stands out the most is his basketball IQ and his ability to get to his spots on the floor with no wasted dribbles and either makes a fantastic pass leading to bucket or scoring himself. His physical build is very deceptive and is quite surprising how well he can get to the hole and finish through contact, not to mention he is absolutely lethal from behind the three point line and can hit consistently of the dribble or off the catch. Gaeth is both a vocal leader on the court and some one who leads by example making him a player any teammate would love to have. He currently holds offers from Central Missouri, Maryville, Midland, Briar Cliff, Central Community College, Hastings College, and Concordia University (NE) and will definitely impact winning at whatever school is lucky enough to land him.

Elijah Gaeth Elijah Gaeth 6'1" | SG Millard North | 2024 State NE is a prospect that has blown up the past month. He has earned offers from some of the top NAIA programs in the area including Briar Cliff, Morningside and Concordia. While these are impressive offers, Gaeth may be one of the more slept on prospects in the state. Last season for Millard North, Gaeth averaged 13, 7 & 5 on one of the top Class A teams in the state. This year, he will look to have another impressive season. Expect Gaeth’s recruitment to continue to expand.

The explosive guard caught my eye with how he finished at the right. He uses his strength to create angles to the rim and craftiness below the rim. A good amount of meat on his bones to handle contact. Sprints in transition turning a half-court possession into a fast break. Knows how to score from the baseline. Dynamic guard that is fun to watch.
