Five Freshmen Set To Have A Big Season.

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wisconsin's Class of 2030 is loaded with talent, and several freshman could make an immediate impact on the varsity floor. Here are five players I'll be watching closely this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["888339"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af1e619177fc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Pewaukee was one of the best teams in the state last season, and Johnsen has the potential to earn meaningful minutes for the Pirates as a freshman. I've watched her for a few years, and what gives me confidence in her is how willing she is to step up in big moments. As the season wears on and the games get tighter, I expect her to be comfortable with the ball in her hands.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1218844"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af1e61917860"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tomah is rebuilding, and I expect Yarco to help set the tone for the Timberwolves. The talented guard headlines Tomah's freshman class and could take on a leadership role early in her varsity career. I'm predicting a breakout season for Yarco, and I wouldn't be surprised if she finishes the year averaging close to a double-double</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1205920"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af1e619178af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Few freshmen in recent memory have entered Wisconsin girls high school basketball with as much buzz as Brown. She already has a college scholarship offer before playing her first high school game, and I'm interested to see how her role grows over the course of the season. I expect her to make an early impact, and by the time the postseason rolls around, she could emerge as one of the team's leaders</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1248231"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af1e619178fa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Langebartles picked up multiple scholarship offers over the summer and is high on my radar in a deep Class of 2030. She joins a Wisconsin Lutheran roster full of established players, giving her a chance to learn from teammates who already know what it takes to contribute at the varsity level. I'm looking forward to seeing how she carves out a role with the Vikings, and I'm confident she'll deliver when her number is called.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241178"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6af1e6191793e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Columbus enters the season as one of the favorites to win the Division 5 state title, and the addition of Bluth makes the Cardinals an even tougher matchup. I'm looking forward to seeing her bring the same passion she showed over the summer to her first varsity season. She'll share the floor with one of the top guards in Wisconsin, and how quickly those two develop chemistry will be one of the storylines I'll be following.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
