Preseason All-Conference: Western Valley
Player of the Year: 2019 Nathan Keck, Kingsley-Pierson
You could make a strong argument for either Keck or OA-BCIG’s Kaden Ladwig for the POY honor, but we’ll give the slight nod to Keck, who stuffs the stat sheet a little better than Ladwig, and is a more efficient scoring threat. Kingsley-Pierson and OA-BCIG should battle for supremacy in the league throughout the winter, and Keck and Ladwig are the biggest reasons why.
First Team
2019 Nathan Keck, Kingsley-Pierson (16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 3.2 steals)
Keck ranked among the scoring and rebounding leaders in the league and led the conference in assists and steals. A playmaking wing, he’ll be looking to lead the Panthers to the top of the league.
2019 Kaden Ladwig, OA-BCIG (16.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 2.1 steals)
Ladwig ties with Keck as the leading returning scorer in the league and is a solid all-around player who contributes across the board.
2019 Calvin Coffman, West Monona (14.7 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 2.9 steals)
Despite being just 6-0, Coffman is among the best rebounders in the league, and looks like the best bet of anyone to post double-doubles this season.
2021 Garrett Trapp, River Valley (14.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 2.1 steals)
The 6-0 sophomore guard was one of the most productive freshmen in the state last season, and efficient to boot, shooting 40.7% from behind the arc last winter.
2019 Landon Ray, OA-BCIG (12.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists)
An efficient scoring wing who like Ladwig contributes across the board, Ray is part of a group that will lead a talented Falcons squad into battle against Kingsley-Pierson all winter.
