Todd Fertig | Prep Hoops Scout
Ruud (pictured) turned in one of the best performances of any player in any game in any classification. He battled furiously to keep Basehor-Linwood in the tough matchup with top-seeded Highland Park. He hit 9-17 shots from the field, most of them of a high-degree of difficulty. The future Washburn Ichabod scored 22 of the Bobcats’ 49 points.

Speaking of motor, Ruud (pictured) is revved up all the time. This guy has made a huge jump in the past year. A year ago, he was ranked 72nd in the 2023 class and was looking to make an impact in the Basehor-Linwood rotation. Now he’s the 4th ranked player in the class and recently committed to play at Washburn University. He’s a high flyer who plays with power and tons of energy.

Another explosive wing player who earned Low to Mid Major and multiple MIAA offers this spring and summer. Ruud gets off the floor with quickness, burst, and power, showcasing them all throughout the grassroots run with SSA. Also a 40+ 3 point shooter and come come off screens, pop off setting screens, or hit off drive and kicks. At 6’6 with his athletic ability, is a really versatile player.

Another player on this list that garnered massive momentum in recruiting with multiple MIAA offers and a mid major offer. The long and bouncy wing showed off his versatility on both ends of the floor and on defense primarily having to guard more traditional forwards on a ton of occasions. Improved in the mid range game, finishing sot with either hand, his rip drive attack was effective, and continued to shoot the three ball well. His highlight dunks were also a major note from the grassroots season.
