***Be aware that the phrase “unsung hero” is not implying that these players are not good or elite, just that they aren’t the “star” of their team.
Elysia Fleetwood 5’10 2020 G/F Xavier Prep
Fleetwood is a top 20 talent in 2020 but I still think that Mia Davis will be the main focus point of their squad this year. Being that good, at such a young age, gains the attention of all media. Therefore, I would say that Fleetwood will be the unsung hero of their team. She brings a big time defensive presence to their squad and will have a huge outcome on how well they do this season.
Nora Kruja 5’5 2020 G Pinnacle
Pinnacle has some top tier prospects in Kennedy Basham and Ally Stedman. These two will likely overtake all media attention from the team. However, Kruja brings a lot of effort, energy, and defense to their team. She may be one of the smallest players on the court but she definitely has the biggest heart and will power on any court. The kid does all the dirty things that go unnoticed and isn’t afraid to sacrifice her body.
Victoria Perez 5’2 2020 G Chandler
Victoria Mason is Chandler’s top prospect and is committed to Hampton University. She is a great scorer and therefore I’d say she’s easily their best prospect. However, Perez can play. She won’t score a ton of points but she makes all the right passes and knows how to set up her teammates. She could be a huge reason why Mason scores at such a high volume this season.
Grace Oken 5’6 2021 G Perry
Perry has a ton of talent and Taty Clayburne is in every highlight video you’ll ever see. Clayburne and Madison Conner will surely garner up all of the attention this season but I truly believe that Oken could potentially have a huge impact on their season. If she can come in and run their offense and shoot the 3 ball like I know she can, she will give them a big boost.
