State Contenders
Freedom
The state runner-ups return four starters from last season. They have the talent and experience that would lead me to believe that the Irish should be back at the Resch next March. Winona State commit Sadie Jarmolowicz Sadie Jarmolowicz 5'9" | CG Freedom | 2023 State WI is back and is one of the most effective returners in the state. Wings Kierstin Kriewaldt Kierstin Kriewaldt 6'0" | SG Freedom | 2023 State WI , Rylie Murphy, Sydney Bartles, and Gracie Martzhal are back. They have more returners and a talented freshman this season. This group feels like it has unfinished business.
Kewaskum
After a heartbreaking sectional loss to Waupun last season, Kewaskum got moved from sectional three to sectional two. This group also returns a talented 2023 class, including 6-foot forward Madilyn Dogs Madilyn Dogs 6'0" | CG Kewaskum | 2023 State WI . They can compete with anyone in Division 3 and are more than good enough to lift the gold ball in March.
Sectional Teams
Wrightstown
Although the Tigers lost a massive senior class last year, this program returns some talent and has a history of developing talent. With Jordan Vickman Jordan Vickman 6'2" | C Wrightstown | 2023 WI back, the Tigers could still find themselves in sectionals next year.
Brillion
Winona State commit Megan Schuman Megan Schuman 6'0" | SF Brillion | 2023 State WI is one of the toughest players to guard in Wisconsin. The Lions were one game away from the state tournament last season. I don’t see why this team won’t contend next season.
Oostburg
The Flying Dutchmen return two of their three top scorers and add a few talented freshmen. I’ll rarely highlight freshmen as why I think a team will make a run in the postseason, but the Keterhagen twins are that good. Ady and Riley Keterhagen are excellent wings who can take this team to another level.
Frisky Regional Teams
Chilton
This team lost Olivia Hoerl, but I think her sister Adahlyn Hoerl Adahlyn Hoerl 5'10" | CG Chilton WI | 2025 State WI will fill the void left by her older sister well. I don’t know what to expect from this team, but I think they’ll be competitive.
Kettle Moraine Lutheran
Makenzie Luehring Makenzie Luehring 5'6" | PG Kettle Moraine Lutheran | 2025 State WI , Madeline Leffel Madeline Leffel 5'10" | SF Kettle Moraine Lutheran | 2025 State WI , and Taylor Schwalenberg Taylor Schwalenberg 5'6" | PG Kettle Moraine Lutheran | 2024 State WI are excellent together, and they beat Waupun last season. They’re competitive and could surprise a team in the postseason.
