Tschetter's mom coached his eighth-grade travel team and was the Stewartville freshmen coach as of the 2020–21 season.

Before his freshman year, he joined the Minnesota Heat AAU boys' basketball program, coached by [[Johnny Tauer]], who encouraged his outside shot. He was a straight-A student in high school with the exception of an A-minus in Spanish as a sophomore.<ref name=TrWTwgtbohcad/> By July 2019, following his sophomore basketball season, Tschetter's only offer was a Division II school.<ref name=PgahMbritWT/> He took an official visit to attend the January 19, 2020, game between [[2019–20 North Dakota State Bison men's basketball team|North Dakota State]] and [[2019–20 North Dakota Fighting Hawks men's basketball team|North Dakota]].<ref name=MtbphdBt/> Tschetter had a 5:30 routine that included making 100 [[three-point shot]]s every day.<ref name=Osmns/> Most teams [[double team|double-teamed]] or triple-teamed him, but some good schools felt they could handle him with single coverage, often resulting in his big games; for instance, he posted 50 points against [[Columbia_Heights,_Minnesota#Education|Columbia Heights]].<ref name=WT/> As a junior, Tschetter led the state in scoring average with 33.4 points per game<ref name=Ijfr/> and earned second team all-state recognition from the [[Associated Press]],<ref name=MtbphdBt/> yet by April 2020, he only had [[mid-major]] interest.<ref name=PgahMbritWT/> Tschetter had intended to make his college choice in April 2020 before the [[COVID-19 pandemic in the United States]]. However, the resulting lockdown led to [[Amateur Athletic Union|AAU]] event cancellations and in-person recruiting bans. Talent evaluations were suddenly based on film analysis and review. Tschetter had to build interest by tape.<ref name=PgahMbritWT>{{cite web|url=https://www.proquest.com/docview/2422079766|url-access=subscription|id={{ProQuest|2422079766}}|title='Personal, genuine' approach helps Michigan basketball reel in three-star Will Tschetter|work=[[The Detroit News]]|author=Hawkins, James|accessdate=March 6, 2024|date=July 10, 2020|page=|quote=}}</ref> Michigan assistant coach [[Phil Martelli]] had initiated contact to request game film.<ref name=PgahMbritWT/> |

Will Tschetter (born January 31, 2003) is an American college basketball player for the Michigan Wolverines of the Big Ten Conference. In high school, he played for Stewartville, where he led the state in scoring as a junior. As a senior, he was third in the state in scoring and finished as runner-up in the Minnesota Mr. Basketball and as the state's number-2 ranked recruit behind Chet Holmgren. Tschetter is the son of Minnesota Miss Basketball, three-time All-American and three-time NCAA Division II national champion Kasey Morlock.
At Stewartville High School, Tschetter was also a 2021 Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) state champion in the discus throw and a Power Five conference quarterback/tight end recruit.
Early life
Tschetter was raised on a farm on the outskirts of the small town of Stewartville, Minnesota, in Southeast Minnesota. The town, which is a suburb of Rochester, Minnesota, has a population of 6,000, and the farm is a distance from central Stewartville.[1] His family's 160-acre (0.65 km2; 0.25 sq mi) farm with about 35 head of cattle is about 12 miles (19.3 km) south of Rochester. His grandfather bought the farm as rental property when his mother was in high school and his grandparents live in a separate residence on the farm, while his uncle owns an additional 80-acre (0.32 km2; 0.13 sq mi) parcel nearby. His mother and father moved in when they landed engineering jobs at IBM in Rochester. Tschetter spent two years in China when his father was on assignment in Beijing before returning to the farm for sixth grade.[2] Upon leaving for China in fourth grade, Tschetter was already 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m). While there, he attended International School of Beijing for 4th and 5th grade.[3]
Tschetter's mom coached his eighth-grade travel team and was the Stewartville freshmen coach as of the 2020–21 season. Tschetter began trumpet studies in fourth grade and switched to french horn as a freshman. He was a member of the school marching band, despite interference from his athletic commitments. He performed yearly with the band at the Minnesota State Fair and in band competitions.[2]
High school
Before his freshman year, he joined the Minnesota Heat AAU boys' basketball program, coached by Johnny Tauer, who encouraged his outside shot. He was a straight-A student in high school with the exception of an A-minus in Spanish as a sophomore.[2] By July 2019, following his sophomore basketball season, Tschetter's only offer was a Division II school.[4] He took an official visit to attend the January 19, 2020, game between North Dakota State and North Dakota.[5] Tschetter had a 5:30 routine that included making 100 three-point shots every day.[6] Most teams double-teamed or triple-teamed him, but some good schools felt they could handle him with single coverage, often resulting in his big games; for instance, he posted 50 points against Columbia Heights.[1] As a junior, Tschetter led the state in scoring average with 33.4 points per game[7] and earned second team all-state recognition from the Associated Press,[5] yet by April 2020, he only had mid-major interest.[4] Tschetter had intended to make his college choice in April 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. However, the resulting lockdown led to AAU event cancellations and in-person recruiting bans. Talent evaluations were suddenly based on film analysis and review. Tschetter had to build interest by tape.[4] Michigan assistant coach Phil Martelli had initiated contact to request game film.[4]
Because he was from a remote area and did not play for an AAU team that participated in the shoe-sponsored circuits, Tschetter remained relatively unknown until Rivals.com published a May 14, 2020, story on him.[1] By May 25, Tschetter had offers from NDSU, Appalachian State, Colorado State, James Madison, Loyola Chicago, Northern Iowa, South Dakota, Toledo, William & Mary, Wyoming and Richmond and strong interest from Arkansas, Minnesota and Michigan.[5] Tschetter was also the starting quarterback for Stewartville. As a junior, he threw for 1,429 yards and 15 touchdowns in nine games.[8] Minnesota Golden Gophers football recruited him as a tight end.[7] While Mark Dantonio was the head coach of Michigan State Spartans football, they were also interested in him as a tight end.[1] Other Big Ten Conference football programs recruited him as well.[7] However, some of the tight end transition conversations extended to his eventually performing as an offensive lineman, which did not interest him.[2] While Tschetter was still fielding offers, the stay-at-home ban was lifted and he invited the Cincinnati-bound Class of 2020 Madsen twins (Gabe and Mason) to practice.[9] Tschetter also competed in the discus throw in high school.[10]
Michigan zoom recruiting entailed a series of virtual meetings. Tschetter, who had a 3.9 GPA, was enticed by Michigan's academics.[4] For basketball, Tschetter's first Power Five conference offer came from Arkansas coach Eric Musselman. On June 1, he got his first Big Ten Conference basketball scholarship offer from Michigan. Hours later, Nebraska and Minnesota followed, and Iowa made an offer on June 23.[7] By late June, his ranking was up to 149 in the 247Sports composite rankings.[4] During the Covid pandemic, his June schedule was packed with zoom recruiting meetings but no official campus visits were allowed before August 31. So Tschetter and his mom drove 588 miles (946.3 km) from Stewartville to Ann Arbor to visit the University of Michigan campus during the quiet of lockdowns for a July 4 road trip. Tschetter could only interface with head coach Juwan Howard and assistant coach Martelli via Zoom.[7] He wanted to wrap up his recruiting before school resumed and decided to commit on July 5. However, because he had no social media accounts, his announcement came from the Stewartville High School boys' basketball Twitter account the next day[4] He had tried Snapchat in high school briefly but found it too distracting.[2] Although Tschetter had no social media accounts, he had on occasion scrolled through his mother's Twitter account and seen the Stewartville basketball account, with its 800 followers; he wanted the experience of an official social media announcement. Stewartville assistant coach Brad Vaught made it happen.[6] His mother was also an assistant coach at Stewartville for coach Adam Girtman.[6] Tschetter finished his high school career with a total of 2,467 points scored.[11]
The 2020 MSHSL spring track & field championships were cancelled, due to the COVID pandemic.[12] At the 2021 MSHSL Class 1A state championships, Tschetter won the discus throw with a distance of 175 ft 7 in (53.52 m).[13]
In basketball, Tschetter led Stewartsville to a state runner-up finish in the March 25, 2021, MSHSL Class 2A state championships. They lost to Caledonia High School and finished with an 18–4 record. Subsequently, Tschetter was named one of five finalists for Minnesota Mr. Basketball along with Lamar Grayson, Chet Holmgren, Andrew Morgan and Francis Nwaokorie. At the time, he was listed as third in the state in scoring average (30.7) and first in total points (643), to go along with 11.3 rebounds per game. Tschetter had led the state with a scoring average over 33 points per game the prior season.[14] When Holmgren, who also won national player of the year awards, was announced as the winner, placement for the other finalists was not announced.[15] However, his University of Michigan official bio asserts he was runner-up.[16] The Minnesota Basketball Coaches Association named Tschetter to the Class AA MBCA Academic All State Team.[17]

College
Tschetter was part of the top-ranked recruiting class in the national class of 2021 along with Caleb Houstan, Moussa Diabaté, Kobe Bufkin, Frankie Collins and Isaiah Barnes.[18] As a redshirt freshman, he earned a reputation as a spark plug.[19] Following his redshirt freshman season, he did an internship on a bison ranch.[20] After taking a break in Stewartville, he then built a garden with coach Howard's wife, Jenine.[3] After Houstan and Diabaté were taken in the 2022 NBA draft,[21] Bufkin was taken in the 2023 NBA draft,[22] and Collins and Barnes entered the NCAA transfer portal,[23][24] As a true freshman, Tschetter played less than 5 minutes for the 2021–22 Michigan Wolverines in the November 5 exhibition game against Wayne State. Then, the coaching staff talked with him and his family regarding redshirting for the season and he did not appear on the court again all season.[25]
As a redshirt freshman, he averaged 10.7 minutes of playing time.[26] He started 8 of the 27 games that he appeared in that season.[27] In his first career start on February 14, 2022, Tschetter missed two free throws with Michigan down by two with 1:17 remaining; Michigan went on to lose to Wisconsin by five.[28]
Tschetter entered his redshirt sophomore season as the only member of his signing class to remain at Michigan.[29] In his first two games, he made all six of his three-point shots and was 11–13 from the field. He scored a career-high eight points in the opener against UNC Asheville on November 7, 2023.[11] Then, he set a new career high with 20 points against Youngstown State on a night of 8–8 shooting (4–4 on three-point shots) on November 10.[11][30]
The 2023–24 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team endured an 8–24 season in which they finished last during the 2023–24 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season with a 3–17 conference record. On March 15, 2024, Michigan fired head coach Juwan Howard.[31] On March 23, Michigan hired Dusty May as his replacement.[32] On April 5, Tschetter became the first Howard holdover to announce he would return to the team the following year.[33]
Personal life
Tschetter was born to Kasey Morlock and Garth Tschetter. Morlock is the all-time leading scorer in North Dakota State Bison women's basketball history (2233 points), and his father made 34 receptions and 3 touchdowns as a wide receiver for North Dakota State Bison football.[5] Garth was listed as 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m) as a senior in high school.[34] His younger brother Henry (class of 2025, 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m)) has committed to play NCAA Division III basketball for Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota, and he has a second brother Pete (class of 2027).[35]
