Emma Hansley, 5-8 Kettering Alter
Emma is a very proficient three-point shooter and a threat from anywhere beyond the arc. She is best in catch-and-shoot but when she gets into a groove, she is difficult to defend. She is a natural leader and a tough defender. She sees the court well and her maturity and court savvy is very solid.
Caraline Kernan, 5-8 Kettering Alter
I loved the way she played and was such a big leader for the Knights. Loves to just make things happen for her team. Very poised with great court vision. She will find her teammates and can beat you in a variety of ways. Great first step, can score at the rim and solid at the free throw line.
Skyler Ward, 5-8 New Paris National Trail
Skyler is a very athletic player who continues to work on her skill development. She moves well without the ball and is a heady player who reacts well. Solid on-ball defender, active hands and good footwork. Needs to develop her left hand to increase her game, but she is a nice steady player with a good potential.
Torie Utter Torie Utter 5'5" | SG Georgetown | 2022 State OH , 5-6 Georgetown
What a week for the guard from the SBAAC! She dropped 22 points in a game against Felicity-Franklin and is among the leaders in the conference in many offensive categories. Smart heady and athletic, Torie continues to see her game grow and she progresses through her junior season. She is averaging nearly 17 points per game, and does a lot on the court. She can rebound well for her size and is a good passer, able to distribute well. (feature photo above)
Taryn Dewberry, 5-5 West Carrollton
A rising player for a team who is starting to put together a solid program. I saw her last week and liked her range and her ability to run the offense well when standout freshman Selena Frost Selena Frost 5'4" | PG West Carrollton | 2024 State OH was out. She showed good moves and is a solid passer. She sees the court well with good handles. Can run the floor in transition and can penetrate to the rim. Keep an eye on her.
Kiley Drylund, 5-11 Uniontown Lake
A long and athletic player, Kiley has been a double-double machine this year playing in a very tough conference, the Federal League. She had three huge games recently including 14 points, 11 rebounds against Dover, 12 points and 8 rebounds vs Jackson and 18 points with 8 rebounds against GlenOak. A very versatile player will lead to a career at the next level.
