The kid's the best player on the best team in the state. Now I know we're kinda dence up here in the land of the high foreheads, but he can play and he's a leader. I give a rat's ass about his stats. Some kids transcend stat lines. He reminds me of Mike Bonczyk the way he plays with poise. He's never out of control making the team around him better. He's a winner and DAMMIT we need winners on this team.
Well OK then!!

Here's an article from today's Green Bay paper (looks like its free) about young Kinziger. Notes he set the metro area scoring record and of course is still adding to it. Nice story, kind of piggy backing on Timmy's comments above, gives him props for much more than putting up points - team leader, distributor, has avoided injuries knock on wood, etc. Glad to see him coming.

61.1% FG % for a guard .... incredible

Indeed absolutely.

At the risk of being called lazy, anyone know where the other finalists are headed for college? MadBird or anyone know without spending a ton of time researching?

Not in person. Just internet. I'm a longtime friend of the De Pere AD and a retired member of Wisc. AD Assc. Talked to him at length at our conference back in November. He thinks we got a steal because he's not the biggest or fastest. "But he's crafty and can play for anyone." "Gets shots off that you think would be smacked back in his face."

Haven't seen him live - they didn't play down our way during the season, was hoping a tournament might bring them here but no. Hoping for a chance to see him in the state finals, St. Patty's Day weekend, should be around to catch him, assuming they make it to the final four at least.
