In his end-of-the-season press conference, head coach Mike Boynton talked about the need to add shooters to the roster. While it’s not in the 2022 class, it doesn’t get much better than adding one of the best players and best overall shooter in the state.

He recorded two 40-point games this season, against Jenks and Broken Arrow, as well as posting 30+ points 11 times this season. He dropped 39 against McAlester and 33 and 31 points against Tulsa Union.

Friedrichsen is a four-star in the 2023 class and is currently the No. 104 overall ranked prospect in the country according to the 247Sports composite.
