Mackenzie Drout | 5’8 CG | Let It Rain
Drout is an offensive standout on her squad and continues to develop aspects of her game and ways to score the basketball. She does well handling the ball up the court and isn’t phased by full-court defensive pressure. She has a great perimeter shot as well and is consistent using her dribble pull up from deep and mid range. She uses a super impressive hesitation dribble to create contact, fade away and attack again against her defender.
Ella Jordan | 5’10 G | WI Playmakers
Jordan has a very high ceiling for her offensive ability and impact she will make with her consistent finishing in the lane. Her moves inside are elite and experienced. She has body control and composure that is beyond difficult to defend. She can handle the ball and is confident when double teamed. Jordan has terrific positional size and a perimeter shot in her bag. She continues to develop her dribble pull up as well. Her footwork on the block and off the dribble make her an impact player for this squad.
Payton Rechlicz Payton Rechlicz 5'8" | CG Menomonee Falls | 2023 WI | 5’9 G | Bridgewater Elite
Rechlicz commands attention when she is on the floor. She plays with so much strength and power. She makes up for height with her ability to hold a defender using her body and strong legs. She gets to the paint with dominance and bullies her way through the lane. She moves so well without the ball and can handle the ball well. A strong rebounder- look for her to continue to become a force at offensive putbacks.
Annika Pluemer Annika Pluemer 5'9" | CG Brookfield East | 2023 State WI | 5’8 G | WI Impact
The WI Impact standout has had an impressive summer and has become very confident attacking the defense and finishing strong in the lane. She is solid with her left and seems to prefer attacking on the left side. She has an elite fake and go that leaves defenders shook. She see’s the floor well and gets many points from her ability to cut without the ball. When her teammates find her open she uses crafty finishing moves and uses her body well. Pluemer is a defensive impact as well- causing multiple deflections and charges during games.
