| The Sioux Falls Argus Leader named Vlastuin one of the state's five top players in boys basketball during the 2007-08 season. I guess you could call that first-team all-state. Said his coach, "He has made big improvements in his game every year. His best years of basketball are still ahead of him. One of the most talented offensive players ever to come out of Lennox."
Drake women's basketball recruit Amber Wollschlager is in the first five for the girls. It says she played three years at one high school, and three years at another. How is that possible?

I don't know the rules in South Dakota, but in some states, junior high players are allowed to play high school ball....so, she could have played at one school in grades 7-9 and another in grades 10-12. |

That makes sense. South Dakota has a lot of tiny, isolated schools, and they probably need warm bodies to fill out their rosters. That would be impressive for a 7th grader to make an impact against high school competition.

| Here's a link to youtube video of Jared in a dunk contest:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoiJVYwRfnw
A couple of routine dunks, then he jumps over a guy, and then a between the legs in the air dunk.
Jared was named the SD Coaches Assn. class A player of the year.
A track season update. He's not running this year, but did set the all class state record in the long jump at
23' 8.75" and has a 6'8" high jump, with the goal of clearing 6' 10.5" for the school record. He's throwing the discus this year, which he hasn't done before, and has a state qualifying throw.
Finally, I heard a rumor that Jared happened to meet Coach Phelps in Sioux Falls last weekend. No details to report, it's just what I heard. |

| Jared was able to meet Coach Phelps in Sioux Falls last weekend. It sounds like it went well.
Also, yesterday, Jared broke the All-Time SD Long Jump(All classes) record, jumping 23 feet 8-3/4 inches.
Jared has qualified for the state tournament in the long jump, triple jump, high jump, and discus. This is his first year participating in the discus. |
