Here are the top players from tonight’s game:
1. Brandon Albrecht Brandon Albrecht 6'1" | SG Grafton | 2021 State ND (2021) |6-4 G| Grafton – 13 points in the game. Brandon recorded a double-double with points and rebounds. He shot it well tonight from downtown. Brandon made multiple 3’s in tonight’s game. Besides spotting up for three-pointers he has a nice pull-up jumper. When shooting on the perimeter he has quick feet and a nice base.
2. Max Kobbervig Max Kobbervig 5'10" | PG Central Cass | 2021 State ND (2021) |5-10 G| Central Cass – 11 points in the game. He had a big-time buzzer-beating 3-pointer to end the first quarter from the corner. I really like his crossover move, it is quick and smooth. Max had a huge drive and finish at the end of the 4th quarter to tie the game and help put it into overtime. He continues to look like one of the best point guards in Region 1.
3. Stevan Garza Stevan Garza 6'2" | SG Grafton | 2021 State ND (2021) |6-3 G| Grafton – 10 points in the game and 5-6 from the charity stripe. He is a special athlete who had an off night scoring-wise tonight. I like his hesitation move that he uses to get by the defense. I was impressed with a quick post move he had in the second half. He is a smooth ballhandler. Stevan blocked a shot late in the game that helped slow down the Squirrels. He had a game-ending steal with under a minute in OT that helped seal the victory for the Spoilers.
4. Joshua Dixon Joshua Dixon 6'3" | PF Central Cass | 2021 State ND (2021) |6-5 F| Central Cass – 9 points and 10 rebounds in the game. He has been Mr. Reliable so far this season for the Squirrels. I like the way he sees the floor and passes the ball. He is a strong post player who can shoot it from outside. Josh shoots it with confidence from the free-throw line. He works hard for rebounds and produces every game.
5. Justin Garza Justin Garza 5'11" | SG Grafton | 2021 State ND (2021) |5-11 G| Grafton – 13 points in the game with multiple made 3-pointers. He is a reliable shooter from the outside. Justin put in a big one in the 4th quarter when the Spoilers needed a basket. I like how he moves without the ball. He had an impressive cut off the post for an easy basket.
6. Logan Prochnow (2021) |6-4 F| Central Cass – He crashed and rebounded well on the O-glass tonight. He has a soft touch in the paint. He can finish with both hands around the basket. Logan is a capable 3-point shooter. He had multiple “and 1” plays tonight. Logan plays well through contact.
7. William Jiskra William Jiskra 6'4" | SF Grafton | 2022 State ND (2022) |6-4 G| Grafton – 8 points in the game. He is a strong athletic forward. I like his baby hook shot he uses around the rim. William has a nice mid-range game. He works hard on the boards.
8. Cole Holzer (2024) |6-5 F| Central Cass – 7 points in the game. This young lefty looked good again. He made another 3-ball. He had a big basket in OT to help keep it close. Cole moves well and is a versatile defender.
9. Sam Kobbervig Sam Kobbervig 6'3" | SG Central Cass | 2023 State ND (2023) |6-1 G| Central Cass – 5 points in the game, all of them in the 4th quarter. He had a quiet night in this one. Sam came up big in the 4th quarter with a clutch triple and a tough drive and finish.
10. Carter Vrchota (2024) |6-0 G| Central Cass – The fearless freshmen came into the game in the 2nd quarter and immediately cashed in a 3-pointer. He plays with great confidence. As the season goes on and he gets more clock I suspect him to keep making big plays.
