Performance of the Week: Grand Rapids Northview's Cam Ryans
February 13, 2026
Cam Ryans ♦ Grand Rapids Northview
Senior ♦ Basketball
The 6-foot-5 all-state forward scored 41 points as Northview defeated reigning Division 1 champion East Lansing 63-46 at the 2K26 Classic at Grand Rapids Community College – breaking the Trojans’ 40-game winning streak. Ryans also had 10 rebounds and five assists during what also was a matchup of potential Mr. Basketball Award finalists as East Lansing is led by senior KJ Torbert.
Nearly as impressive as the win Saturday was that it came just a day after Northview fell to Ottawa-Kent Conference Gold rival Grand Rapids South Christian, 50-47 in overtime. Northview is 14-4 and tied with South Christian for first in the league. Ryans has scored more than 1,500 points during his career and set his school’s career scoring record during a Jan. 9 win over the Sailors. He’s signed to continue his career at Western Michigan, joining his brother EJ Ryans, a sophomore for the Broncos.
