Fort Dodge’s Javion Jondle not too long ago landed on the Iowa Alliance Conference Northern Division’s second group for his efforts for the duration of the 2022-23 boys basketball season.

Jondle, a 3-year varsity starter for the Dodgers, averaged 16.four points and 7.three rebounds as a senior. The Iowa Central football recruit completed his profession as the 17th-major scorer in college history with 655 total points.

“Javion committed himself to becoming a improved leader for the system,” FDSH head coach Willie Williams mentioned. “He wanted to be ‘the guy’ for us each on the court and in the locker space. He had (practically 40) additional rebounds and (enhanced) assists (compared to his junior campaign), and upped his scoring (by more than one hundred points).

“It was challenging since it was a transition period (for the system, with Jondle becoming the only starter back from a year ago), but he place up superior numbers and worked difficult. He played in (60 profession games), and has been a mainstay for us.”

Cade Westerhoff landed on the honorable mention charts. The sophomore averaged 7.eight points and four.1 rebounds as a varsity newcomer in 2022-23.

“Cade can use this practical experience as a (reference point) moving forward. Like our other freshmen and sophomores (who saw playing time), now he knows what it requires,” Williams mentioned. “He had some seriously superior games and stretches for us.

“It’s no secret that we have to get stronger and additional physical. If this season taught us something, it is that we have to be additional constant from begin to finish on each ends of the court. I want this system to stand for toughness and have an identity defensively. This is an vital offseason we have a lot of perform to do.”

Present junior Ty Adams, sophomore Carter Woodruff and Westerhoff are slated to return from the beginning group, when reserves Ryan Daniel (junior this year), Drake Warland (sophomore), Royce Pederson (sophomore) and Tytrell Mosley (freshman) back immediately after appearing in double-digit contests. Jondle, Kyron Wilson and Ti’Juan Isom are graduating.

The Dodger freshmen had been 15-four this winter.
