Five Best
Calvin Foy Calvin Foy 6'1" | SG Andover | 2021 State MN of Andover. Calvin Foy Calvin Foy 6'1" | SG Andover | 2021 State MN is about to be a three year double figure scorer in the Northwest Suburban Conference and that can not be said about that many guys. He’s a solid shooter, quality defender, and overall Calvin is a true under the radar talent.
AJ Kaul of Blaine. AJ Kaul seems to have hunger for the game and a feel as a scorer that is not many players have. This is why as a sophomore Kaul was one of the main two options for Blaine, and this is also why AJ is scoring in binging ways for the Crossfire right now.
Noah Paulson Noah Paulson 6'8" | C Duluth East | 2021 State MN of Duluth East. Paulson is a player that I have really grown to appreciate this summer. He looks to have grown to 6-foot-9 and Paulson seems to have outstanding footwork based on the video we saw from last weekend and over the winter. Good defender but also the main guy that Duluth East ran a lot of the offense through/around. Two years averaging a double-double.
Mattie Thompson Mattie Thompson 6'6" | SF Duluth East | 2021 State MN of Duluth East. Thompson is a good sized wing at 6-foot-6 that is also quite agile, bouncy off the floor. Scored 20 points a game as a junior using his agility to get to the right cuts, to get up the floor ahead of others, and to actively find ways to produce high percentage baskets around the rim.
Will Van Scoy Will Van Scoy 6'1" | PG Duluth East | 2022 State MN of Duluth East. Will is entering his junior year, but also his third year as the Greyhounds starting lead guard. Will is at his best when he gets to the rim and makes play but he balances that well as the main distributor. Paulson and Thompson don’t have the years they do without Will’s backcourt direction.
Next Five
Nick Bartlett Nick Bartlett 6'0" | PG Forest Lake | 2022 State MN of Forest Lake. Lead guard that has caught our eye this summer, we think he will have a big junior year.
Jordan Boysen Jordan Boysen 6'6" | PF Forest Lake | 2021 State MN of Forest Lake. Boysen is more like a first five guy following a 13 point per game year and having a nice summer.
Connor Braaten Connor Braaten 6'5" | PF Cambridge-Isanti | 2021 State MN of Cambridge-Isanti. Connor is one of the only guys returning for C-I that has experience. He averaged nine points and seven boards a game.
Ben Kopetzki Ben Kopetzki 6'0" | PG Andover | 2023 State MN of Andover. Ben is on the verge of being one of the better shooters in Minnesota, his approach is confidence and aggressive.
Samuel Musungu Samuel Musungu 6'1" | PG Andover | 2023 State MN of Andover. Samuel scored four buckets a game as a frosh and physically is ready for an even bigger role next winter.
