6-4 record, averaging 12 ppg & 6 rpg, game high of 28 vs. West Central, a versatile forward who is strong at the rim, watch him play & it’s easy to see Tad is long & athletic, has a legit outside game, keeps defenders honest or they will pay the price
I thought Tjaden moved pretty well for his size. Especially defensively moving his feet, and running the court. The lefty earned a lot of his opportunities and buckets.
WHY? He is intriguing with his length, size, and athleticism. I imagine that the college scouts will be keeping a close eye on Tjaden. He had a nice offseason and improved his overall game. I am interested to see his foot speed, strength, and if he can take over a game. Tad certainly will be a matchup problem for most of the players at the Expo.
This long lefty is full of talent and intrigue. Tad had a quality sophomore season and he stuck out on the defensive side of the ball for the Quarriers who won 16 games. Tjaden plays with great energy and he is active on both sides of the ball. He is at his best when cutting and slashing to the rim, he can also hit from outside. Tjaden was a high percentage shooter this past winter. He will be the best defender for Dells and Tjaden will increase his offensive production. PHD is expecting big things from Tad is 23-24!
13-2 record, Tjaden is not putting up huge numbers because he is surrounded by many STUDs, shoots a high %, 56 on FG’s & 35 from 3, a great defender, the glue guy for the Quarriers, is super unselfish, impressive length & mobility, has high upside.
