La Crosse Central's Johnny Davis is a three-time WBCA All-State selection

Johnny Davis of La Crosse Central is the lone repeat selection on the 2020 Division 2 Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association All-State Team.

A three-time WBCA All-State choice, Davis was a contributor as a freshman when the Red Raiders won a state title, and led Central back to the state tournament as a sophomore and junior. After averaging 22 points per game the previous two seasons, he’s up to 28.4 points per contest as a senior.

Carson Arenz is part of an outstanding all-around Onalaska team that has spent much of the season ranked number on in the WisSports.net Division 2 Coaches Poll. Averaging 13.9 points per game, he’s a deadly long-range shooter, connecting on 46.4% of his three point attempts. He adds 4.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game as well for the Hilltoppers.

Cedarburg’s Drew Biber has been a varsity performer since his freshman season, and after earning Second Team All-Conference last year as a sophomore, he’s been even better as a junior. The 6’5” guard is over 20 points per game this season with 9.0 rebounds and 3.1 assists per contest as well for the Bulldogs.

Cole Booth of Plymouth has guided the Panthers to an outright East Central Conference title while scoring in double figures 21 times in 22 regular season contests. Averaging 24 points per outing, he’s one of the state’s top shooter, making 56% of his shots from the field, 93% from the foul line, and 48% from behind the three-point line. Booth also averages 4.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists, and 3.0 steals per game.

Mason Dorn of Seymour is one of the most improved players in the state, nearly doubling his scoring average from last year with 24.5 per game in this, his junior season. He’s shooting better than 41% from three-point this year, with 116 made three’s in his career so far. In helping the Thunder to an outright Bay Conference title, Dorn added 4.7 rebounds per game.

Alex Huibregtse of Grafton is a big-time scorer who has seen his points per game average increase from 15.6 as a sophomore to 21.0 as a junior and 24.4 this season as a senior. Shooting 63% from the field, 86% from the free throw line, and 45% from the three-point arc, the 6’4” senior Wright State recruit added 7.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in a very tough North Shore Conference.

River Falls finished second in the Big Rivers Conference and 17-5 overall in the regular season, as Zac Johnson improved upon a strong sophomore campaign with an even bigger junior year, averaging 21.6 points per game. Already over 1100 points in his career, the 6’3” guard is contributing 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 steals per contest as well. 

Jordan Johnson of Elkhorn wasn’t even an Honorable Mention All-Conference choice last year when he averaged less than six points per game, but he has exploded as a junior, averaging 24.4 points per game while shooting 51% from the floor, 84% from the charity stripe, and 48% from deep. He’s adding 5.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.

Nicolet’s Kobe Johnson was a starter on last year’s Division 2 state championship team, but was usually the third option behind older brother Jalen Johnson and Jamari Sibley. When both headed out of state (though Jalen has since returned), Kobe’s role on the team increased significantly. He’s averaging better than 20 points per game as the Knights have surged to a North Shore Conference title and are a strong contender to repeat as state champion.

Cameron Palesse of Waukesha West has been the dominant scorer on the team all season, averaging 24.2 points per game, with a season-high 41 points in a tough loss to Oconomowoc in late January. The 6’5” junior guard will likely repeat as a First Team All-Conference pick in the Classic Eight.

Tyrell Stuttley is the leading scorer and rebounder for the top-ranked Division 2 team in the state, averaging 14.2 points and 6.4 rebounds per contest. The 6’5” senior forward is also an outstanding defender with very good length who can be disruptive all over the court.

Milwaukee Lutheran finished three games ahead of anyone else in the Woodland-East, claiming a league title. Jourdan Weddle, a 6’2” senior guard, was a big-time catalyst, averaging more than 20 points per game for the Red Knights and head coach Marcus Jackson.
