Each of these players have put up consistent numbers for their squads. Cameran Ratz | Portage | 5’6 G Ratz has been a great impact player for this Portage squad so far. She impacts in many ways on the floor and is a standout defender as well. A super scrappy guard with the ability to handle the ball and pull up from deep. Ratz is certainly a competitor on the floor. She is averaging 10.3 points per game for her team. In a game against a tough Baraboo squad, Ratz finished with 18 points. Taylor Marquart | Fort Atkinson | 5’10 F Marquart has played some huge minutes for her team. She is averaging nearly 13 points per game. She’s consistently been able to be versatile on the floor and score from many different spots. Her ability to be patient and composed on the floor makes her a tough matchup as well. In a game against New Glarus, Marquart scored a season-high 26 points. Maya Krause | New London | 5’6 G Krause brings great energy on the floor for the team and has a high ceiling for becoming an impact player for this team down the stretch. A clear leader on the floor as well, the offense seems to run smoothly with her in. After four games this season, Krause is averaging quiet 7 points per game. In her first matchup against a talented West De Pere team, Krause finished with 14 points. She can knock down the three point basket as well and is confident handling pressure on the perimeter. [player_tooltip player_id="132375" first="Grace" last="Schmidt"] | Watertown Luther Prep | 6’1 F Schmidt is an extremely talented and traditional post player who gets the job done inside. She’s a dominant presence in the paint on both ends- she does well altering shots and causing her opponent to take perimeter baskets simply by intimidation. On the offensive end she is smooth in the paint and has elite post footwork. She is averaging 30.5 points per game this season and is showing why she is a major candidate for Player Of The Year in her conference. In a two point loss against Winnebago Lutheran, Schmidt scored 37 points for her tem. Grace Lomen | Catholic Memorial | 5’9 G Lomen is so impressive with her ability to play inside and out. She’s a versatile prospect who has a bag full of finish moves. Her ability to shift the defender and change pace when attacking the lane makes her a very difficult player to defend. Her energy on the floor is high and she has shown glimpses so far of being an elite playmaker. She works well alongside senior post player [player_tooltip player_id="202241" first="Alyssa" last="Nimz"]. They work well in the high low situation and Lomen does an excellent job taking offensive pressure off of her. She is averaging 15.6 points per game this season. In a win over Muskego, Lomen scored 22 points. Annie Christenson | Kewaskum | 5’10 G Christenson is another player who can excel playing inside and out. She’s quick yet strong enough to hold her own in the paint. She seems most comfortable handling the ball and being able to create her own opportunity but is also thriving in transition and offensive rebounds this season. She is not afraid to attempt the three point basket if left open either. She is averaging 14 points per game. In a win over Rio, Christenson finished with 16 points per for her team. Sarah Hardwick | Notre Dame | 5’10 F Harwick is a fantastic two way player who impacts the game so much when she is in. Her movement on the offensive end is a big reason for why she is doing so well. She uses cuts and screens well and is elite and holding her own on the block. This season she is averaging 9 points per game. She has proven to be able to put up consistent numbers and can easily be a spark plug for this team. In a win over New London, Harwick scored 14 points. [player_tooltip player_id="204128" first="Olivia" last="Hoerl"] | Kiel | 5’10 F Hoerl has been a major player for her team this season. She’s taken on a leadership role and has really shown glimpses of how terrific she can be offensively. She is averaging 15 points per game this season. She’s a sniper from beyond the arc as well, Hoerl is confident with the ball on the arc. In a game against Valders, Hoerl scored 20 points for her team and went 67% from the three point line.
