<p><strong>Class AAAA</strong></p>
<p>Center—Sara Stapleton, Centennial, 15 ppg. 6-3 with broad shoulders, long arms, might still be growing. Great shot blocker and rebounder. Initial offense in the post still a work in progress. But, she reminds me of Bethany Doolittle, a similarly sized post at Hill-Murray some years ago. Doolittle ended up starting for Iowa. Stapleton is way ahead of Doolittle at the same age.</p>
