Players to Watch
Addi Inskeep, 5-10 2025, Minster
Excellent vision of the floor in transition, great athletic explosion off the dribble and able to get to the rim strong to finish through contact. A great mid-range game and expanding. Great handles, excellent rebounder that get get between the defender and the ball. Long and rangy lockdown defender with a great motor.
Kennedy Muhlenkamp, 6-1 2025, Fort Recovery
Great rebounder who has the ability and strong enough ball handler to push transition. Long and range defender who can guard all five positions. Great at running the floor in transition and moving without the ball. Can score inside or out and is a slasher with the ball who can also post up her defenders.
Sadie Niemeyer, 5-5 2025, Minster
Excellent quickness and speed from one baseline to another, great ability to get to the rim off the dribble and get through traffic. High basketball IQ with great court vision and awareness, great passer who excels at creating for others. Excellent handles with many different moves and is a very coachable player, always wanting to learn.
Leah Lefeld, 6-0 2025, St. Henry
Leah is a solid force in the middle and is an excellent rebounder who knows how to use her body position. Great passer to the slashing guards/wings and she has really strong hands and upper body. Great at picking up the garbage around the rim and finishing the second chance shots. Excellent post defender who can play through contact.
Grace Osborne, 5-7 2025, Versailles
She has deceptive speed with or without the ball, moves really well without the ball and is a gritty defender who isn’t afraid to play physical. Sees the floor and anticipates the next pass well, and really is a quiet player until you look up and see she has 10 points and you never know it.
