‘Fab Five’ athletes of the week

This week’s “Fab Five” athletes are members of the Minneapolis North’s 2016 Class A state championship boys’ basketball team. Four players (Tyler Johnson, Isaac Johnson, Patrick Dembley and Jamil Jackson) are currently embarking on successful collegiate student-athlete careers, while the remaining team member (Odell Wilson IV) will begin his this fall.

 

Patrick Dembley, the point guard for 2016 champion Polars, signed to play at Boise State University next year after a stellar two-year career at Iowa Western Community College.
Isaac Johnson, the sharpshooting guard for North in 2016 – and again while leading North to a second Class A title – took over the starting job as a freshman at Western Illinois near the end of the season.
Jamil Jackson, a forward on the 2016 Polars title team, earned a basketball scholarship at Southern Utah. He was injured this season after playing in eight games.
Tyler Johnson, who was a guard on North’s 2016 championship team, is about to enter his junior year as one of the nation’s top wide receivers for the football team at the University of Minnesota.
Odell Wilson IV, a five-year starter for the North and member of state championship teams in 2016 and 2017, recently signed to play basketball at North Dakota State University.
