Owen Berg of Forest Lake (6’5). Berg is a bigger wing that came off the bench and scored five points a game with a few boards. Working to have a starting role next season.
Caden Boettcher Caden Boettcher 6'5" | SF Maple Grove | 2021 State MN of Maple Grove (6’4). The Maple Grove program has become a model of consistency with strong players growing year after year within the system. Caden is a strong product of the Crimson program and he’s about to be the leading returning scorer, rebounder, and shot blocker for the program.
Bryce Boyd Bryce Boyd 6'4" | SF Holy Angels | 2021 State MN of Holy Angles (6’4). Boyd gives the team a main scoring option, a guy that can chase down rebounds, and a long player that can defend some size, and some athletes. Bryce averaged 12 points and four boards a game and he’s a top 100 level player in the senior class.
Jordan Boysen Jordan Boysen 6'6" | PF Forest Lake | 2021 State MN of Forest Lake (6’7). We’ve learned a lot about Jordan since our end of the season rankings for the 2021 class. First off Jordan is a couple inches bigger than we knew of and more skilled than we knew. Scored a dozen a game this year and is a 4.0 student.
Max Kachman Max Kachman 5'10" | PG St. Anthony Village | 2021 State MN of St. Anthony Village (5’10). Max played off the ball with Tait Nelson Tait Nelson 5'10" | PG St. Anthony | 2020 State MN running the point, and on the ball at times too. He was a combo guard that averaged nine points, 4.2 boards, 3.6 assists, and 2.3 steals a contest. .
Evan Kim Evan Kim 6'4" | SG Mounds View | 2021 State MN of Mounds View (6’3). Evan is a crafty playmaker that has a lot of juice, confidence to his game. Uses both hands well and Evan does an incredible job of letting space develop and then attacking it to produce regardless of what’s moving around him opposition wise. Led an improved Mustangs team with 16 points per game.
Luke Omodt Luke Omodt 6'3" | PF St Anthony Village | 2021 State MN of St. Anthony Village (6’5). Luke is a fantastic position defender that communicates well and does a great job moving his feet to position off the ball screen. One of the best charge takers in the metro and he averaged 9.5 points and 6.5 rebounds a contest.
Cole Sorensen Cole Sorensen 6'0" | PG Mounds View | 2021 State MN of Mounds View (5’11). In watching the Mustangs this season I enjoyed how Sorenson was a possession after possession contributor. Scored his three-four baskets a game but also created for others, rebounded, worked his way to force turnovers, and something of everything.
Andy Tran of Maple Grove (5’10). Tran played on the Crimson junior varsity team this year and could step into a key ball handling role on varsity next winter.
