Brooke Coffey Brooke Coffey 6'0" | SF Incarnate Word Academy | 2023 State MO 6’1″ Blue Star St. Louis 16U: The versatile wing from Incarnate Word has the size and strength to play inside, but she has the skill set of a guard, which makes her a tough matchup. She showed off her shooting prowess by making five 3-pointers in one game during pool play. She is also an excellent ball handler and playmaker who passes the ball well and makes very good decisions.
Tkiyah Nelson Tkiyah Nelson 5'10" | CG Whitfield | 2023 State MO 5’10″ Lady Brad Beal Elite 2023: A talented guard from Whitfield who can play many roles to make her team successful. Her height and length make her a big asset on the defensive end as she can stalk opposing ball handlers and get deflections. She has a high basketball IQ and she can facilitate the offense with her ball handling and passing skills, plus she has the ability to score from the perimeter or slash to the basket.
Olivia Hahn Olivia Hahn 5'9" | CG Incarnate Word Academy | 2023 State MO 5’9″ Blue Star St. Louis 16U: A solid shooting guard from Incarnate Word who brings a certain level of toughness to the court. She is fearless when she attacks the basket on the drive and she doesn’t mind the contact that goes along with it. She is also a very good 3-point shooter who can also create a nice mid-range jumper off the bounce.
Shannon Dowell 5’10″ Lady Brad Beal Elite 2023: An athletic wing from O’Fallon, IL (outside of St. Louis) who is a prime scoring threat as a slasher and driver. She works well in iso situations where she can break down her defenders with her quick first step and ability to drive either left or right to get to the basket. And she is an excellent finisher inside with good concentration. She has good length and she puts in a solid effort at the defensive end as well.
Violet McNece Violet McNece 5'11" | SG Marquette | 2023 State MO 5’11″ Blue Star St. Louis 16U: A versatile wing player from Incarnate Word who displayed a propensity for coming up with a big play during a key part of the game during her team’s run to the championship game of the Platinum Division. If you leave her open, she’s going to hit the 3-pointer or she’ll find her way underneath to pick up an offensive rebound for a putback. She puts herself in good position to make positive plays.
