She averaged 18 points a game in the tournament.
Na’Teonia Russell 5’9 Lift for Life: The 2021 guard had a excellent all-around tournament where she averaged 14 points, 10 rebounds and five steals.

Mallory Ronshausen Mallory Ronshausen 5'8" | CG Cor Jesu | 2021 State MO 5’7 Cor Jesu: The UMSL recruit averaged 15 points in the tournament in leading the Chargers to a berth in the championship game.

Sofia Tweedie Sofia Tweedie 5'11" | SF Francis Howell Central | 2021 State MO 5’10 Francis Howell Central: The Hawaii Pacific recruit averaged 12 points in helping the Spartans to a third-place finish. She is a solid all-around player who fills many roles. She is very good from 3-point range, but she also rebounds and passes well while also playing well without the ball.
Makenna DeClue Makenna DeClue 5'1" | PG Troy | 2021 State MO 5’2 Troy: The diminutive point guard is a sparkplug floor leader with her ball handling and 3-point shooting. She averaged 11 points a game in the tournament.
