Stamp, a 5-foot-10 midfielder, played a key role in powering the Patriots to a third consecutive Class AA state championship in the fall of 2025. Along the way, Stamp collected 24 goals and eight assists, pushing his prep career totals to 54 goals and 22 assists.
Lincoln finished the season 15-1-1, notably avenging both of their non-victories during the regular season en route to the state championship. A 1-1 draw with Brandon Valley turned into an 8-0 semifinal result, and a 2-1 loss against Sioux Falls Jefferson flipped to a 6-0 final in the title match.
In addition to his Gatorade award recognition, Stamp is a two-time United Soccer Coaches High School state player of the year and was a fall season Best XI first-team selection by TopDrawerSoccer.com.
"Preparing for a game against Lincoln was always difficult because of the variety of skills Brady brings to the field and the way he can impact a game," said Sioux Falls Roosevelt coach Victor Naranjo in the award's press release. "He's fast, strong and technically very skilled. He can dominate games in different ways, whether it is scoring, creating chances or putting constant pressure on a defense."
Off the pitch, Stamp maintained a weighted 4.06 GPA in the classroom. He will continue his soccer and academic careers at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire starting in the fall.
Stamp volunteered with the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society, Feeding South Dakota and as a youth soccer coach.
