Re-Ranking The Top 5 For Class of 2019

One of the most fun things to do is see how players that have moved onto the college level are performing in comparison to their high school ranking. Rankings are an imperfect science no matter how someone tries to dice it up, but the final 2019 rankings were based on potential as a college player and overall impact at the high school level. Although it is early into the college season, some players are outperforming others in their freshman season. Here's how the class of 2019 would be ranked based on their college production thus far. 5. <strong>Brooke Walling</strong> (Fresno State) *Previous ranking: 5 <ul> <li>The Prairie High School grad is averaging a decent amount of playing time as a freshman, but she is registering just .6 points per game and 1.6 rebounds. Fresno State is currently 5-3.</li> </ul> 4. <strong>Jacinta Buckley</strong> (UNLV) *Previous ranking: 4 <ul> <li>The first team all state performer at Lewis and Clark High School is still adjusting to the college game and averaging a little over 8 minutes per game and recording 1.4 points per game. She played a season high 21 minutes versus Southern Utah. UNLV is 2-4 on the season.</li> </ul> 3. <strong>JaQuaya Miller</strong> (Washington) *Previous ranking: 1 <ul> <li>Miller held the number one ranking throughout her high school career. The 6'4 post saw a lot of playing time in her first few games, but has seen her minutes dip to 13, 9 and 5 in their most recent games. She is averaging 4 points and 2.7 rebounds for the 6-1 Huskies.</li> </ul> 2. <strong>Oumou Toure</strong> (Butler) *Previous ranking: 3 <ul> <li>Toure has seen her minutes go up as the season has gone along for the Butler Bulldogs. She is averaging nearly 18 minutes per game and averaging 6.2 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks. She also recorded her first career double-double already this season. Toure has started one game for Butler and has seen playing time in big moments. One of the most impressive stats is her 77% mark from the free throw line, as this is an area she has really improved in since high school. Butler is 5-2.</li> </ul> <ol> <li><strong>Brynna Maxwell</strong> (Utah) *Previous Ranking: 2</li> </ol> <ul> <li>Brynna has continued the momentum she built up at Gig Harbor High School into her freshman season at Utah.

She has started in each of those games, helping Utah to a 4-3 record.</li> </ul>
