<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Over the new few days we will break down our 2027 rankings in a little further detail and give subscribers some insight to their high school seasons that just ended as well as look ahead to their spring and summer schedules. Today we start with some guards that had big high school seasons and could break out with more offers this spring and summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["893232"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec44fa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A big season with the Badgers led to Bojaboj jumping to third in our class rankings and the top point guard in the 2027 class. A big summer awaits with her [program_tooltip program_id='712709' first='Nebraska' last='Attack'] team that will play on the UAA Next circuit, which will start for them next weekend in Pennsylvania. They get a warm up this weekend at the Phee Classic in St. Louis. Bohaboj led Bennington to the Class B state title with a 28-0 record and had averages of 11.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["719887"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec45c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A stalwart for the past two Lincoln Southwest state tournament teams, Irons offensive game stepped up in a big way during 2025-26. A real playmaker in her role, Irons should excel here as well for ETG Midwest [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] on the adidas 3SSB tour this spring and summer. She upped her scoring to 14.8 points per game this past winter and also led LSW with 2.1 steals per contest. An [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] shooter, she connected on 52 percent of her 2-point shots and was 34 percent behind the arc, making 56 triples on the year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["893265"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec466c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the state's [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] shooters, Beveridge led Gothenburg to a third place finish in a loaded Class C-1 tournament field. Beveridge has true "in the gym" range and had a stellar season for coach Tim Strausser averaging 16.9 points per contest for the Swedes, she also added 4.7 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.6 steals. A 30+ percent 3-point shooter, Beveridge made 80 triples last season and has over 150 career 3-point makes. Maybe held back a bit by not being on a "shoe circuit" team, Beveridge could see some action that way this spring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["865479"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec470f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another Bennington product, Johnson and her teammate, [player_tooltip player_id='777559' first='Haydin' last='Jackson'] were nearly identical this year and they are right next to each other in the rankings. Johnson will play with the ETG team this summer after a year where she made 55 3-point shots on an [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] 43 percent mark from distance. Johnson's development and ability to shoot it at that kind of level over the spring and summer could land her major college interest. At 5-9, Johnson also brings plenty of length on the defensive end where she added 2.6 rebounds and 2.5 steals this past winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["902885"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec47b1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Heimes is an active player on both ends of the floor with big upside as she heads to her senior season at Pius. She'll get a start on her final campaign with a spring and summer season with [program_tooltip program_id='712709' first='Nebraska' last='Attack']. At 5-10, Heimes can guard multiple positions on the floor and was a key contributor for Pius' state semifinal team in Class B as she filled the stat sheet with 8.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists while shooting nearly 40 percent from the floor for the Bolts. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["894986"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d5ae0ec4847"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">If there was a wish we had for the next 12 months it is that as many college coaches as possible could see Province play. She doesn't ever need to come out of a game with [program_tooltip program_id='713325' first='Elite' last=''] conditioning and plays relentless basketball on both ends of the floor. In a historic season for Kearney where they advanced to the Class A semifinals, Province averaged 11.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 3.1 steals per game. Province can play both guard positions and is usually at her best attacking the lane with the ball in her hands. She had great finishing ability and is just as lethal on the defensive end of the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
