One of the premiere shooting wings in the state, Schlundt was strong during the opening week in knocking down shots and showcasing his range. Would like to his activity elevate in the coming weeks on both ends of the floor.

Despite losing, Deberry played sound basketball and made good decisions in terms of his shot selection and was efficient in that regard. A solid opening week effort.

JARVIS GARRETT – 2013 – PG – WEST ALLIS CENTRAL
Stat Line – 4 points (2-9 FG), 4 Assists, 3 Rebounds, 2 Steals, 1 Block, 7 Turnovers
Was a little rusty at times but also made a number of high level passes that weren’t converted which would have elevated his assist total substantially. A pure floor general, Garrett showed flashes of his trademark playmaking ability.
TOBY HEGNER – 2013 – PF – BERLIN
Stat Line – 12 points (5-11 FG), and 8 Rebounds
As has always been the case with bigs in the BOC then start off solid and elevate substantially as they become more active and more assertive on both ends. A solid opening week effort that should grow with increased activity on both ends of the floor in the coming weeks.

Stat Line – 16 points (7-11 FG), 3 Rebounds, 2 Steals, 1 Assist, 1 Block, 1 Turnover

Stat Line – 3 points (1-3 FG), 5 Rebounds, 1 Assist, 0 Turnovers

TONNIE COLLIER – 2012 – F/C – WEST ALLIS CENTRAL
Stat Line – 6 point (3-6 FG), 7 Rebounds, 2 Blocks, 1 Assist, 1 Steal, 4 Turnovers
A decent and respectable opening week effort, Collier showed some solid footwork at times, displayed improved athleticism, finished with efficiency, and turned laid a nice foundation for what could be a strong performance in this year’s BOC moving forward.

Stat Line – 8 points (3-8 FG), 5 Assists, 3 Rebounds, 2 Steals, 5 Turnovers
Turned it up as the game moved along and despite his team’s struggles, Lachance made a number of quality plays in the second half. Expect his game to take a huge step forward in the coming weeks as he has the instincts and feel to make things happen on the court.
