Kretschmar scored a team-high 19 points, nearly half of the third-seeded Bears’ total.
Kretschmar didn’t play like a sophomore in this one. Kretschmar is capable of going for 20 on any given day .
Standout on the defensive end. The 6-foot-3 guard is a very good shooter with deep range.
Kretschmar scored from the three-point line with good range and showed his grit on drives and put backs inside.
Lot of skill to his game. Gets to the rim and shoots off the catch. Hits threes and can score over defenders.
Clutch shooter. Made 3s and drives to the basket. One to keep an eye on.
Kain proved hard to guard at the Elite 20.
Kain Kretschmar is a natural scorer.

Personal Statement
Passion, dedication and basketball IQ of the game are in my blood. My mother who is a former Division 1 DePaul University Hall of Fame woman's basketball player, instilled in me at an early age that if I am going to achieve my basketball goals that I have to display a love for the game and always work harder than everyone else. I have held this attitude ever since I was able to dribble a basketball.
My goals are simple: I want to be the best varsity basketball player in Lake Zurich HS history and earn a college scholarship. I am an all around player that can bring a future team 3 levels of scoring, high passing IQ and high intensity defense. As a point/shooting guard, I can see the whole court and love creating opportunities for my teammates. I take my leadership and all my responsibilities seriously on the court as I do with my academics off the court.

SPEAR offers specialized training for athletes of all ages and abilities for in season and off season programs. Our programs are designed specifically for the biomechanical and physiological demands of each individual’s sport. We design a program for long term athletic development, starting out with the incorporation of exercises that help fix structural imbalances due to weak musculature or repetitive overuse patterns so that injuries can be prevented. This approach allows for greater strength gains to happen more efficiently by establishing a strong foundation to build upon which will ultimately help you to reach your full genetic potential. Each training phase builds on the previous one leading to increased strength over time and maximized results! This approach has been proven time after time in preparing athletes for their competitive season by enhancing their strength, power, speed, explosiveness, agility and overall performance. We can help athletes mitigate injury through proper instruction and execution of correct exercise techniques. Athletics can be unpredictable and injuries do occur. When they do, we can help get the athlete back to full strength faster so they can get back to competition.
