Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA is a handful for most underneath the hoop with her mixture of size, physicality, and coordinated footwork. Burpo comes in right around 6’0 and she handlers her own in the middle. She is a PF that takes up a lot of space with her post ability. If she gets her back to the basket with time and spacing, it’s usually an easy bucket because the opponent can’t handle the physicality. Defensively, Burpo alters a lot of shots with her presence alone. Guards that break past NW’s first line of defense are in for a rude awakening when they see Burpo in between the blocks. Overall, there is some promise here. She competes at a solid rate so as long as she works on being her best at her Forward position, she should continue to see results.

The running partner with Danburg at the Forward position for the Wolves is Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA . Burpo is a little smaller in height than Cassidy but she possess more muscle mass to pair along with her size. Offensively, she is a force to be reckoned with whenever she catches with time and space near the basket because of how simple it is for her to bully smaller opponents that try to matchup with her. She will simply go through anyone that is smaller/weaker, while being able to hit a counter move if she is ever cut off by someone that might be a little bit bigger. Defensively, she is a rebounding machine and someone that protects the middle of the lane well. All and all, this is someone with a D1 offer already at this time and she might field a few more before her high school career is over. If she does her thing and everyone else follows suit, who knows how far the Wolves could take things over the next couple of seasons.

A few days ago Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA of Waukee NW received her first Division-1 offer from down South. Burpo, a 6’0 PF, has the height and muscle mass to pair with it that all collegiate coaches love to see. She can bully her way to several buckets and rebounds in a short period of time if the opponent doesn’t game-plan for her. She can also step out, screen, and roll for a look going towards the hoop from the outside. Burpo should be a nice piece to her team’s puzzle, if you will, for this upcoming Winter with Waukee NW. They are going to have two starters over 6’0 and that will play to their favor against in the long run if they want to de-thrown the reigning 5A Champs.

In the terms of, I’m not sure if she is going to sink or swim right away when she hits the Varsity floor.

The biggest deciding factor that I think Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA is going to run into at the high school level is playing her position. If Burpo locks in to dominate with her size within 15FT of the hoop and works off of that, she could end up being one of the best Post players out of the 2028 Class before her high school career comes to a close.

If she has the correct guidance, is used in the proper ways, all while expanding what she is good at, then she is going to put together four memorable seasons with Waukee NW.

One of the more interesting prospects out of this 2028 Class comes to us in the form of Forward, Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA . Burpo will be attending Waukee NW High School for her next four years and I’m sure she is going to be a staple of that program once she gets her feet underneath herself at the Varsity level. She has solid height at 6’0, she is a physical body near the paint, and she is relentless in her pursuit of the basketball on shot attempts and in rebounding situations. I had a chance to see Burpo compete prior to this AAU season and she was really unstoppable against other prospects her age in the paint area. If she can build off of this physical play, while being a sound defender, she is going to find time on the floor with the Wolves in the near future at the very least.

The second tallest player on this team comes to us in the form of Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA . Burpo is 6’0/6’1 and physically dominant in every aspect under the hoop. She can catch with her back to the basket and finish on either side of the rim or she can clean up the mess of a teammate and rebound, ending the possession with either a finish offensively or an outlet defensively. Burpo is one of three prospects playing up on this team and it makes sense as to why. She is handful to deal with and what you combined her with Andernacht and Templeman, there aren’t too many programs that will be able to match up with their size. It’s all going to come down to if they have a connection in my opinion. If those three post players do, this is going to be a Spring to remember for the Forwards and Centers on this team.

I didn’t know too much about Victoria Burpo Victoria Burpo 6'0" | PF Waukee NW | 2028 State IA until this past 6 months but what I’ve seen since then has been special. Burpo has size. Size that you cannot teach at this point in the game. She is standing at 6’0 and she has the muscle mass to go along with it. She has a strong demeanor while being relentless in the rebound department. This Winter she will be suiting up with Waukee NW for her high school career. If she ends up getting some Varsity playing time and her guards can create, she is going to be very productive for this Wolves squad. Her presence in the middle is something that opposing players have to worry about once they get to the middle of the lane as she is pretty good at coming over to help from the far side defensively. Burpo just has that combination that all coaches love. She works hard, she never gives up on a play, she has a great attitude, she is over 6’0, and she can finish at the rim through contact on a consistent basis. If she stays on this path of progression these next few seasons, she will be a top tier prospect out of this Class moving forward.
