Rhyan Mogel Rhyan Mogel 5'10" | SF Clackamas | 2023 State OR perhaps had the most impressive single game performance where she single handedly put NW Stars Navy over NW Greyhounds in an absolute thriller. Paige Pentzer Paige Pentzer 5'9" | SF Ridgeview | 2022 OR is a two way player who plays with a lot of energy and resilience, particularly around the rim. Taylin Smith Taylin Smith 5'5" | PG Liberty | 2021 State OR is a floor general who combines adept dribbling skills with consistent shooting. Skye Miller Skye Miller 5'10" | SG McKay | 2021 State OR is a solid combo guard who brings consistency and flair when she is out on the floor. Avery Peterson is a talented point guard who has a keen eye for finding her teammates along the floor. Rilyn Quirke Rilyn Quirke 5'11" | SF Barlow | 2023 State OR is a forward who is continually progressing as an interior scorer and dedicated defender. Liv Knapp Liv Knapp 5'6" | PG Liberty | 2021 State OR is an established scorer who gets the job with in an efficient and collected manner.
Rhyan Mogel Rhyan Mogel 5'10" | SF Clackamas | 2023 State OR 2023 5’10” SF NW Stars Navy/Clackamas HS – Rhyan has had a huge extended AAU season, what is even more impressive is that her game is steadily improving – still. One of her most impressive showings thus far came against the NW Greyhounds where she finished with a 24 point, 7 rebound, 3 assist total – but when the game came down to the wire Mogel saved the day. She scored on nine out of the last eleven NW Stars possessions and completely dominated the game with an illustrious effort.
Paige Pentzer Paige Pentzer 5'9" | SF Ridgeview | 2022 OR 2021 5’10” SF 3 Peaks Performance/Ridgeview HS – The College of Idaho signee is a fierce and aggressive competitor who is fluid around the rim as she showcases the ability to slip through defenders and finish strongly. She is a precise rebounder whose jumping skills are essential for the task. Her 12 point, 4 rebound effort was a reminder of what type of player we have here – one who regularly finds ways to score and include herself in the defensive scheme.
Taylin Smith Taylin Smith 5'5" | PG Liberty | 2021 State OR 2021 5’5″ PG All-In/Liberty HS – Taylin is one of the most creative, consistent, and confident guards in the 2021 class – as she continued to show her merits as a floor general and leader in Idaho. Her 20 point, 3 rebound performance was marked by patience in the half-court setting, as she is very calculated and precise in her moves towards her spots on the court and drills them when she gets to them.
Skye Miller Skye Miller 5'10" | SG McKay | 2021 State OR 2021 5’10” SG All-In/McKay HS – Skye is a combo guard that brings additional consistency and flavor when she is out on the court – as a steadfast guard who has a slick handle as well as the ability to read the floor. She is also someone who fills up the stat-sheet who makes plays routinely all over – as a defender and facilitator. Her 6 point, 8 rebound, 6 assist, 6 steal effort was very telling of her all around abilities.
Avery Peterson 2025 5’5″ PG NW Stars White – Avery is another talented 2025 player from the NW Stars group as she brings in a lot of skill that is rare to see in such a young player. She is the creative and innovative playmaker in transition, where she has a six sense as far as where her teammates are sitting. Her 9 point, 4 rebound, 3 assist effort was a prime example of her ability to score alongside the perimeter, rebound well, and find players in stride.
Rilyn Quirke Rilyn Quirke 5'11" | SF Barlow | 2023 State OR 2023 6’0″ PF NW Stars White/Barlow HS – Rilyn is a blend of physicality in the form of a six foot bruiser – but one that can also space the floor. More recently, she has gone back to true form as far as the position goes – and the basics have worked for her. She establishes a presence in the post well, as she seals well due to her relentless pursuits and solid frame. Quirke had a 10 point, 3 rebound effort where she showed these qualities to perfection.
Liv Knapp Liv Knapp 5'6" | PG Liberty | 2021 State OR 2021 5’5″ SG All-In/Liberty HS (Pictured) – Liv is a spark plug offensive who can light up the scoreboard without giving the score official a moment’s notice. She does it in an elusive and unforgiving manner as she uses as few dribbles as possible and is a momentum based scorer who is very springy off the bounce and can pop up at any second. This is the very reason why a month ago, she led the EOT in scoring over a four game span with an 82 point total.
