Adam Dugener – North MuskegonBasketball
Dugener delivered on the biggest stage of the week, pouring in 37 points, including seven three-pointers, to lead North Muskegon to a conference-clinching win over Hart.

He followed that up with a complete all-around effort against North Muskegon, finishing with 16 points, eight rebounds, six assists, three steals and three blocks. Few players impacted every phase of the game the way Ackley did.

Meza rose to the occasion in postseason competition, capturing an individual district championship to punch her ticket to regionals. Winning multiple matches in a win-or-go-home bracket showcases both skill and composure, and Meza delivered when it mattered most. A championship performance under pressure.
