Morris County has some versatile players both on the perimeter and in the post. Here, we will be breaking down some of the top forwards in the area. Caileigh Walsh (2021) | Gill St. Bernard’s We begin with the best forward in Morris County and one of the top in New Jersey. Walsh is a high-level prospect. She is extremely dynamic on the offensive end. She knows how to use her size to succeed and has a smooth jump shot from midrange. Walsh’s post game is advanced which will help her at the next level. [player_tooltip player_id="159448" first="Jayden" last="Watson"] (2021) | Morris Catholic Watson continued to be an impact player for Morris Catholic. Watson averaged 16.2 points and 10.8 rebounds per game as a junior. She is a true double-double threat because of her aggressive nature mixed with finesse in her game. Watson also had the ability to step out and shoot from deep which she did 38 times this season. Elaiana Lagalla (2022) | Boonton Lagalla was a duel-threat right from the beginning of the season. She turned into one of the strongest rebounders in the county along with being a difference maker on the defensive end. Expect Lagalla’s role to continue to grow as a junior. Carly Frohnapfel (2022) | Chatham Chatham won 23 games this season thanks to their balanced offensive attack. [player_tooltip player_id="156159" first="Maddie" last="Hartnett"] has turned into one of the top players in the state and Frohnapfel helps keep the floor even. She was dynamic on the offensive glass which led to many put backs. Frohnapfel showed an ability to play with her back to the basket and that will only enhance as her career does. Sarah Bona (2022) | Randolph Randolph won 25 games this season and they have a chance to be a top team once again with Bona returning. The sophomore established herself as a stretch four who could step out and shoot or take over a game from the block. Ainsley Williams (2021) | Mount Olive Williams was the offensive leader for Moun Olive this season. She is the definition of a strong forward on the block. Williams is a complete duel-threat that can do it all. She has quick feet and strong hands which helps on both ends.
