A sharpshooting guard who knocked down 61 3-pointers at a 47% clip as a sophomore. He’s a capable shooter both off the dribble and the catch. He’ll need to continue to expand his all-around offensive game, improving his ball handling and ability to get to the bucket, to round him into a really good all-around scorer.
Kolson Kruse Kolson Kruse 5'11" | SG Southeast Valley | 2022 State IA | SG | Southeast Valley
The other piece of Southeast Valley’s dynamic 2022 duo (big man Aaron Graves Aaron Graves 6'5" | PF Southeast Valley | 2022 State IA ), Krus is a knockdown shooter who made 67 3-pointers on the year at a 42% clip. He doesn’t handle the ball a ton for the Jaguars, but is a good decision maker with the ball in his hands, and does a nice job reading and jumping passing lanes on defense. It’s his shooting ability that will make him a coveted prospect.
Kaleb Booth Kaleb Booth 6'1" | SG Carroll | 2022 State IA | SG | Carroll
Booth is an absolutely fantastic shooter who buried 53% of his attempts from 3 on the year. He moves well without the ball and has his feet set and squared on the catch. If he has a second to get his shot off, he’s nearly automatic. The rest of his game is still a work in progress, but his shooting will play at the next level.
Landon Sauser Landon Sauser 5'9" | PG Senior | 2022 State IA | SG | Senior
Sauser was a big-time scorer for Senior’s sophomore team, which went undefeated. He’s tiny but can fill it up in a hurry. He has a pretty looking stroke from behind the arc, and has a fairly well rounded offensive game, using a quick first step to take advantage of bad closeouts and get to the bucket when teams overplay his shooting ability.
Dylan Kurt Dylan Kurt 6'3" | SF North Linn | 2022 State IA | SF | North Linn
A good shooter with size, Kurt moves really well off the ball to free himself up for open looks. He has a quick release on the catch and the ability to fill it up in a hurry. He was the third option for a really good Lynx team as a sophomore, but will become the second option next season with Austin Miller Austin Miller 6'2" | PF North Linn | 2020 State IA graduating.
Keeon Hutton Keeon Hutton 6'3" | SG Sioux City West | 2022 KS | SG | Sioux City West
A young wing with good size, Hutton shot 42% from behind the arc and had 53 assists against just 16 turnovers as a sophomore.
Kasen Bailey Kasen Bailey 6'3" | SG Washington | 2022 State IA | SG | Washington
Bailey handles the ball well and shoots it really well, especially off the dribble. He shot 42% from behind the arc as a sophomore, averaging 13.4 points a game.
Gunner Vanourney Gunner Vanourney 5'11" | SG North Linn | 2022 State IA | SG | North Linn
Started all year for the 2A runner-up, shooting 44% from behind the arc. He moves really well without the ball and has a quick release and extended range. He’s much better shooting it off the catch with his high arcing jumper.
Nick Macke Nick Macke 5'10" | SG Carroll | 2022 State IA | SG | Carroll
Macke is small, but he’s a great shooter who moves well off the ball and has a quick release on the catch. Albeit on limited attempts, he shot 59% from behind the arc for a strong 3A Carroll team.
Christian Vietor Christian Vietor 6'1" | SG Sioux Center | 2022 State IA | SG | Sioux Center
The 6-1 wing moves well off the ball and can really shoot it. He made a team-high 54 3s as a sophomore at a 37.5% clip for the Warriors.
Landon Becker Landon Becker 6'1" | SG Cardinal | 2022 State IA | SG | Cardinal
Becker is a capable shooter from deep who just needs to become more efficient. He made a team-high 51 3-pointers on the year, but shot just 29% on those attempts. Him and teammate Griffin Greiner Griffin Greiner 6'1" | CG Cardinal | 2022 State IA are asked to do a lot for Cardinal, and as a result don’t always get the best looks at the bucket.
Brayden Sawyer Brayden Sawyer 5'10" | SG Grundy Center | 2022 State IA | SG | Grundy Center
The 5-10 guard led Grundy Center in scoring at 12.5 points a game, making 42% of his 3-pointers on the year. He also contributes on the glass, ranking second on the team in rebounding.
Trey Jungers Trey Jungers 5'11" | SF Newell-Fonda | 2022 State IA | SF | Newell-Fonda
An undersized forward who can do a little bit of everything on the floor, Jungers shot 45% from behind the arc as a sophomore, while also leading the Mustangs in assists and steals. He averaged 13 points a game.
Mason Scheve Mason Scheve 6'1" | SG Pleasantville | 2022 State IA | SG | Pleasantville
Efficient scoring guard averaged 11.8 points and shot 43% from behind the arc. A majority of his shots come from deep, and he’ll need to continue to round out his all-around skill set.
