Madison Cluse Madison Cluse 6'0" | SF Nordonia | 2021 State OH – 5’11 Forward – Nordonia
An ultimate mismatch, Cluse is a true point-forward. She is capable of rebounding the ball at a high rate and then leading the fast break and making plays in transition as a scorer or passer. Her ability to finish through contact, in addition to her quick first step – makes her darn-near impossible to guard with a single defender. After scoring over 16 PPG as a senior – Madison was named an All-Ohioan in Division I. She is heading to Miami of Ohio to play her college basketball.
Nakyah Terrell Nakyah Terrell 5'7" | CG Canton Mckinley | 2021 State OH – 5’6 Guard – Canton McKinley
It was quite the year for Terrell – a High Point commit. She averaged 17.3 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 2.4 APG and 2.3 SPG for the Bulldogs. A 4-year performer – Nakyah was named player of the year by the coaches in the Federal League and District 4. A lightning quick guard – Terrell takes care of the basketball, while scoring at all 3 levels in the half court and creating havoc defensively in the full court. She is a prime example of a lead guard who makes her teammates better.
Bailee Smith Bailee Smith 5'7" | CG Maysville | 2021 State OH – 5’6 Guard – Maysville
Smith was one of the state’s leading scorers – averaging 26.4 PPG to go with 5.6 RPG and 3.4 SPG. A superb athlete with good strength and a college-ready frame – Bailee will fit in well in West Liberty’s run-and-gun system the next 4 years. Her motor and ability to make 50-50 plays throughout the course of a game are so valuable – she is the kind of player that every championship team has. Smith finished her career with over 1800 career points.
Brooklyn Troyer Brooklyn Troyer 5'9" | CG Waynedale | 2021 State OH – 5’8 Guard – Waynedale
It could be argued that there wasn’t a single player who did more for their team in the state of Ohio – than Brooklyn Troyer Brooklyn Troyer 5'9" | CG Waynedale | 2021 State OH did for Waynedale, on the way to the Final 4. Brooklyn is listed as a guard – but did a lot of her damage around the rim – posting up smaller defenders or driving by them and finishing with contact. She does have the ability to knock down the 3 and shoots it very confidently. The Wayne County Athletic League Player of the Year and All-Ohio selection is heading to play at Malone next year.
Abby Carter Abby Carter 5'11" | PF Eastlake North | 2021 OH – 5’11 Guard – Eastlake North
Carter finished her outstanding career with a bang. She averaged 16.9 PPG, 8.8 RPG and 2.5 SPG as a senior, on her way to All-Ohio honors. The Akron University commit has always been able to score the basketball. She causes a lot of issues for opponents with her long arms and athleticism as a perimeter defender and shot blocker. Abby has range on her 3-pointer and adds court vision that every coach loves.
