Incredible scorer, and definitely has a natural feel for the game. Recently scored 47 points which is stunning! She is a nightmare for opponents, even with being double teamed. She has a great motor, runs the floor well, making it easy to find her in transition to score. Aggressive going after the ball for rebounds. Without question one of the best in the state.
Lauren Wood- 5’8, SF/SG, 2022, New Albany: Very good shooting guard, who can shoot the lights out of the ball from anywhere behind the arc. Nice pull up jumpers from mid range. Very nice handles, and defensively, she shows all heart! Always finds a way to have great position and take the charges, which adds fuel to her team! Consistently pushes the tempo in transition, and makes smart choices. Unselfish player with good court vision and high basketball IQ. D1 offers are going to continue coming her way.
Kenzie Bicking- 5’8, SG/SF, 2021, Dublin Coffman: I’ve watched solid shooters, and I’ve seen very good 3 point shooters. But the shooting range for Bicking is unreal! Opponents must stay on her, otherwise, she has no problem shooting way beyond the arc- I’m talking 4ft and more, behind the arc, and makes it look so easy! Very quick trigger, follows her shot, and crafty with taking the ball to the bucket. Kenzie brings energy to the team, is a great leader, shows composure, and doesn’t get rattled. Defensively, she’s solid; and as a passer- outstanding! She’s going to be fun to watch and follow in college! (Featured Picture)
Bella Ward Bella Ward 5'11" | SF Gahanna | 2022 State OH – 6’0, SF/SG, 2022, Gahanna Lincoln: Whoever has the task of guarding Bella Ward Bella Ward 5'11" | SF Gahanna | 2022 State OH , better have eaten their Wheaties for breakfast and lunch! She is so athletic, strong, and combine that with her energy and quickness, she is very difficult to contain. She can draw in multiple defenders, and plow literally through them. Ward positions her body so well, whether that be for rebounding, boxing out, or creating shots. She hustles all game, and a natural leader. She’s going to fit in very well for Butler University!
Alsaysha Grant- 5’5, PG/SG, 2021, Pickerington North: Grant is an athletic, quick guard, who is great in the open court, and attacks the basket with an aggressive mindset. She has a scorers mentality, and can hurt opponents in the lane, mid-range jumpers, and 3’s. Strong handles, can take the ball coast to coast, and pick pockets all day! Keep your eyes on her, can no doubt play at the next level.
