Former Menomonee Falls star Seth Trimble commits to Louisville

Former Menomonee Falls boys basketball superstar and four-year North Carolina guard Seth Trimble committed to the University of Louisville on Wednesday, Aug. 12.

The news of Trimble’s transfer comes on the back of a Colorado district court ruling that gave high schoolers who were members of the 2022 class a fifth season of college eligibility.

He averaged a career-high 14 points per game this past season, including one of the plays of the entire 2025-26 college basketball season with his buzzer-beating 3-pointer over hated rival Duke on Feb. 7.
