Reese Wilson Reese Wilson 5'10" | SF Myers Park | 2024 State NC | Myers Park | SF
Wilson moves up and down the court with ease making sure she can contribute in transition whether it is getting the pass on a fast break or being available to rebound for some second chance opportunities. She fights through contact to get her points close to the basket. Scoring close to the basket isn’t her only way of getting points as she can shoot from behind the arc. She played extremely well against some tough competition even as a freshman.
Jerin Truesdale Jerin Truesdale 5'9" | SF Myers Park | 2024 State NC | Myers Park | PF
Truesdale makes sure she puts the power in power forward. She can bully her way in the paint finding the position that she wants in order to score or to prevent an opponent from scoring. She has nice footwork, and she partners that with great ball handling skills making her a threat all over the court. She is an effective rebounder who shows assertive behaviors needed to make sure she is the only one who can grab the ball. She can track the ball effectively showing off her shot blocking skills.
Chloe Moss Chloe Moss 5'11" | PF Independence | 2024 State NC | Independence | PF
Moss is a force inside having her way around the paint. She can use power dribbles effectively to get into position to score. She uses her strength to go after rebounds finding ways to bring them down, and she can push the ball up the court herself after grabbing a defensive board. Speaking of defense, she knows how to grab steals for her team and score the ball in transition on the other end of the court. It would not surprise me to see her average double-doubles as she continues her high school career.
Seini Hicks Seini Hicks 6'0" | SF Purcell Marian | 2024 State OH | Cannon | PF
Hicks was impressive this season playing against older opponents in the paint. She knows how to move around in the paint to be an effective post player. Her footwork and power dribbles make her nearly impossible to guard. She goes after rebounds with ease, and she prevents her opponents from scoring anywhere near the paint. On offense, she knows how to grab rebounds to score second chance points. She also has a nice jump shot that she shows off after creating separation from her defender.
Sarah Strong Sarah Strong 6'2" | PF Grace Christian | 2024 State NC | Fuquay-Varina | PF
Strong is everything you need in a post player. She already has some great height. She can block shots and effectively rebound the ball. She is aggressive in the paint on both ends of the court making it difficult for anyone to score in the paint and to prevent her from scoring. She moves well in the gaps of the defense showing off her IQ because she always knows how to contribute.
