WBCA announces Division 1 Boys Basketball All-State Team

Senior Trevor Anderson of Stevens Point, Sam Hauser of Stevens Point, Davis Larson of Sheboygan North, and Juwan McCloud of Germantown headline the 2016 Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Division 1 All-State team as unanimous selections. Anderson is a three-time All-State pick, while Hauser and McCloud repeat from a year ago.

Anderson is a four-time Player of the Year in the Wisconsin Valley Conference, eclipsing 2000 career points. The senior Green Bay commit averaged a team-best 24.9 points per game this year, shooting a blistering 53.2% from behind the arc and 89.2% from the charity stripe.

Hauser has shown his versatility as a four-year starter at Stevens Point, averaging more than 18 points and 9 rebounds per game as the Panthers head into the state tournament undefeated. A Marquette commit, he can take over the game from the inside or outside, offensively or defensively.

McCloud was a key member of Germantown teams that won a state title his sophomore year, finished as runner-up last season, and posted a 20-5 record and North Shore title this year. Committed to Northern Iowa, he averaged 24 points per game as a senior.

Larson helped Sheboygan North to its first state tournament appearance since 1993, averaging better than 20 points and 8 rebounds per game. A complete player, he also led the team in assists at 5.6 per contest as the Raiders won the FRCC title.

Job Alexander of Marquette was the team's leading scorer, but really came through in the clutch. After averaging 13.9 points per game during the season, the 6-3 senior scored 44 points in a pair of sectional wins to lift the Hilltoppers to the state tournament.

Deang Deang of Madison East was named the Big Eight Player of the Year for the Purgolders after a stellar senior campaign. The 6-4 guard poured in 19.1 points per game, shooting 58.8% from the field and 79.1% from the free throw line.

Jack Flynn of Appleton West led the Terrors to a tie for second place in the always-challenging Fox Valley Association. The 6-7 post player averaged 18.1 points per game as West finished 19-7 overall.

Joey Hauser of Stevens Point may be the youngest of the Panthers' All-State trio, but he was extremely important to the team's undefeated regular season and return trip to the state tournament. The 6-7 sophomore has numerous D1 college offers already, averaging 17.8 points and 7.6 rebounds per game.

Terrence Lewis of Milwaukee Riverside was a dominating player as the Tigers captured an outright Milwaukee City Conference title and advanced to the sectional finals. The 6-6 junior with several D1 college scholarship offers poured in better than 22 points per game, adding 9.9 rebounds per contest.

Jordan Poole of Milwaukee King was one of the top junior players in the state, and it showed when he gave a verbal commitment to Michigan last fall. The 6-4 guard averaged 18.2 points per game for the Generals and head coach Jim Gosz.

Caleb Wagner of Muskego helped the Warriors to their first state tournament appearance in 30 years in addition to an outright Classic Eight title. The 6-1 point guard averaged a team-best 22.3 points per game for head coach Andy Capes.
