The rising senior class in Wisconsin is a talented group that will have talent land at every level of college basketball. We've highlighted a handful of kids in this class with the articles for the Top Ten, the biggest stock risers, and the new faces in the class. Today, we'll highlight some names who remain uncommitted and potentially under-the-radar players I think could contribute at the next level.   [player_tooltip player_id='636142' first='Maddie' last='Gratz']   The Darlington wing doesn't play AAU basketball, but she is still among the most talented players in her class. Gratz is a physical and skilled wing who can play on the perimeter or use her strength to play around the basket. She has been comfortable in the high-use role for the Cardinals and has been productive for a few seasons now. I'm not sure if she wants to play basketball at the next level, but she has the talent and skill set to do so.   [player_tooltip player_id='595865' first='Molly' last='Olson']   I'm partial to undersized guards who play like their hair's on fire, and that's how Olson plays whenever she steps on the floor. The way that she is willing to sacrifice her body for the most marginal reasons that could help her team win games is commendable. Olson is also a solid perimeter shooter who has knocked down shots in her time at the high school level. She may not have the size that some programs look for, but she's a coach's dream who would find her way on the floor at the college level if she wants to keep playing.   [player_tooltip player_id='932701' first='Kiera' last='Place']   The Sun Prairie East wing is an athletic wing with potential on the defensive end of the floor. Place can defend multiple positions at the high school level, and could add defensive versatility at the college level if she wants to play at the next level. She has the lateral quickness and length that could help her become an indispensable player on the defensive end for a college program.   [player_tooltip player_id='1265496' first='Sophie' last='Hook']   The St. Croix Falls guard was an excellent offensive player in her junior season. She shot the ball well and could make some things happen off the dribble. Hook has solid footwork when she gets around the paint and can create space for herself to finish in the paint. She also handled the ball well, helped initiate her team's offense well, and led her team to a solid finish in her junior season.
