<b>[player_tooltip player_id="14248" first="Bella" last="Swedlund"] - Winner - SD Attack - (5’8/CG/2022) -</b> I think I’ve lost track of how many D1 offers Bella has garnered so let’s just skip that notion. Needless to say, she’s getting a ton of attention from college programs looking for a skilled guard that is lights-out from three. Bella has range and can shoot it with defense there. Bella is one of the best scorers in the state at 22.5 per game. What might go unnoticed about her game is that she’s such a good rebounder for a guard. She can get up and attack the ball, securing it with strength. She’s poised to have a big and motivated summer, looking to prove she can play with the best the nation has to offer.
Bella can hit any shot on the court and see for yourself below!

<b>[player_tooltip player_id="98696" first="Kalla" last="Bertram"] - Winner - Black Hills State - (5’9/G-F/2021) - </b>Kalla plays second-fiddle to Swedlund but she is one of the best second options in the state as she averaged 19 ppg. on a whopping 58% from the field. She may be the Scottie Pippen of girls basketball in South Dakota. She was a 2nd team all-stater for class A. She makes numerous defensive plays for Winner, proven by her 96 steals on the season. I haven’t compared stats for steals but that has to be top 5 in class A for total steals. She’s off to D2 basketball because of her versatility, effort, and two-way effort and ability.
<b>[player_tooltip player_id="178967" first="Olivia" last="Hanson"] - Aberdeen Roncalli - (5’6/SG/2022) </b>- Olivia may be an unknown but her defense in the state tournament deserves high recognition. She was low on our rankings and basically an addition but she will shoot up the board and be a top 50 SD 2022 prospect. [player_tooltip player_id="150853" first="Madelyn" last="Bragg"] and [player_tooltip player_id="150861" first="Morgan" last="Fiedler"]’s defense was mentioned but Olivia was on another level with high pressure matchups with individual assignments with [player_tooltip player_id="98751" first="Lexi" last="Unruh"] and [player_tooltip player_id="98666" first="Haleigh" last="Timmer"]. Sioux Falls Christian scored 34 points and St. Thomas More only scored 35 points.
<b>[player_tooltip player_id="98751" first="Lexi" last="Unruh"] - Sioux Falls Christian - Creighton commit - (6’0/Wing/2021) - </b>Lexi is as talented as scorer as you’ll find in the state. She recovered just fine from an ACL injury with a couple 40 point explosions and a 23.8 regular season scoring average. A wing with good size at 6’0, solidifying her as a D1 prospect headed to Creighton.
<b>[player_tooltip player_id="99768" first="Rylee" last="Rosenquist"] - Dakota Valley - SD Attack - (5’8/CG/2022) - </b>It’s hard not to like the way Rylee plays. Plays with toughness and heart. She can bring the ball up with speed and score inside with strength. Rylee is already at #10 for the class of 2022 but she could move up even a few spots. On the regular season, she averaged 20.1 ppg., 7.9 rpg., and 4.4 apg. She shot 52% from the field. She hit the 1,000 point mark this season and is now Dakota Valley’s all-time leading scorer.
