Chloe Clardy (Conway Arkansas)
Clardy is just an offensive machine as she can score off the dribble, the stop, and pop, the mid to long-range. Her shot is smooth, her release is quick, and let me add she can “catch and shoot” with accuracy. Her energy level never changes and she brings plenty of heat on defense
RyLee Grays RyLee Grays 6'3" | PF The Village School | 2023 State #17 Nation TX (Village School)
Grays helped lead her high school team to a state championship (TAPPS 6A) and her growth, on and off the court as well as hitting the weights giving her a college-ready frame right now but on top of all of that, her power in the paint and playing under control have taken strides
Loghan Johnson Loghan Johnson 5'8" | CG Tompkins | 2023 State TX (Tompkins)
Johnson also toned up to the point I didn’t realize who she was after not seeing her for a year but she has things you can’t teach and when you do things instinctively, like playing the passing and react, like on defense, scoring multiple ways off the jumper is only icing on the cake
Gisella Maul Gisella Maul 5'10" | SG Cedar Park | 2023 State TX (Cedar Park)
Maul was one of the reasons her high school team made a deep run in the playoffs and were a couple of points away from heading to the state championship but she has the ability to just take games over offensively. Her range is unlimited, she has a deceptive first step that she mixes with a step back or she can just attack and finish
D’Asia Thomas D’Asia Thomas 6'3" | PF Houston Chrisitian | 2023 State TX (Waller)
Thomas wasn’t called a #D1Lock by me before her first middle school game because I hadn’t seen her play but after I did see her and had a roster, it was a done deal. Her strength and power can dominate games on both ends of the court and when you can finish, with multiple players hanging on you, need I say more
