In recent years, the state of Wisconsin has seen quite a few top recruits depart to play their high school basketball careers elsewhere. That was especially seen with the 2025 class, dealing a blow to the Wisconsin Badgers with their in-state recruiting efforts.
Well, that’s happening again, as the No. 1 recruit in the state of Wisconsin, forward Vaughn Karvala, is heading to Bella Vista Prep for his final year of high school.
A four-star recruit from Oregon, Wisconsin, Karvala stands 6’6, 180 pounds and currently has seven scholarship offers.
Both Wisconsin and Marquette have shown interest in the top-50 junior, while Xavier, Iowa, Arizona State, Ole Miss, and Syracuse have all offered Karvala as well.
