The event was hosted by Fremd High School and provided much excitement throughout the day. Here are some of the top Point Guards that I noticed:
Ava Zaslavsky is a 5’3’’ Junior PG out of New Trier and showcases very strong leadership ability on the court. She is a very smooth ball handler and sets her teammates up very nicely. Also possesses solid shot from deep.
At 5’7’’, Sophomore PG from Lyons Township, Lindsey Hahn was very impressive in all facets of the game. She’s a confident ball handler and sees the court very well. Hahn also has very good outside shot and isn’t afraid to contest for rebounds underneath.
Another key Freshman for Montini, 5’6’’ PG Sophia Sullivan is a plus shooter and on-ball defender. She is an excellent ball-handler and as smooth as can be in transition. Has ability to set teammates up for success or take ball to the hoop with a crafty finish.
Freshman PG Imari McDuffy out of Rock Island is a star in the making. At 5’5’’, she is an elite ball handler and good decision maker. Very impressive leadership from the underclassman.
Tara Gugliuzza out of Lincoln Way West is a complete Guard who also showed great ability on both sides of the ball. The 5’6’’ Sophomore has very active hands on defense and pushes the ball quickly, and under control in transition. Plus shooter.
Grayslake Central’s Senior PG Maura Fitzgerald is an above average ball handler and really gets teammates involved with exceptional passing ability. Very solid leader on the floor and controls temp of the offense.
As well rounded as Fremd is, PG Emily Klaczek really brings it all together. The 5’10’’ Junior is calm with the ball in her hands and a great decision maker. She likes to get teammates involved but can also score off the dribble or shoot from deep. Klaczek tallied 15 points and was named team MVP in Fremd’s victory over Glenbard West.
