Allison Undlin Allison Undlin 6'4" | C Mohalll-Lansford Sherwood | 2023 State ND : Mohall/Langsford/Sherwood 2023- Much like her rebounding abilities and scoring abilities another tool in Undlins pocket is blocking shots. At 6’4 she utilizes her size, and long arms to swat balls away with ease, needless to say it’s never easy to get a shot off in front of her. Last year Undlin picked up 91 Blocks to add to her list of impressive stats. Not only was this #1 in class B, but she also led the State overall for class A & B. Coach Neumann is going to love having this talent on his squad the next few years.
Brenna Stroklund Brenna Stroklund 6'0" | PF Kenmare | 2023 State ND : Kenmare/Bowbells 2023- With good hight (6’0), quick feet and an “all or nothing” attitude on the court Strokelund knows how to get it done offensively, or defensively. The returning All-Stater has a bag full of refined talents, and one of those talents is protecting the paint. Stroklund was not only good for 9.1rpg, but also picked up 87 blocked shots, a number that was good for #2 in class B, and #2 overall in class A & B. Add those numbers with her 15.3 ppg average, you can say she’s a double-double waiting to happen.
Kennedy Harter Kennedy Harter 6'0" | PF Kidder County | 2023 State ND : Kidder County- I’ve been fortunate to watch Harter many times this last year, and something I’ve always noticed about her is how hard she works/hustles on the court, and her vertical which really impressed me. Kennedy is not only an offensive threat being able to connect mid-range and from behind the arc, but also utilizes her height and strength to block out and pull down the rebounds as well. Last year she averaged 13.5 ppg, 7.4 rpg, and picked up 63 blocks which was 3rd in class “B”. The returning All-Conference (District 6) Senior will be tough for teams to handle as she can get it done on both sides of the court. I’m expecting her to have another big year for the Wolves.
