Emi Hutter-Demarco Emi Hutter-Demarco 5'7" | CG Woods Charter | 2022 NC | Woods Charter
Hutter-Demarco (pictured above) has shown that she can do a little bit of everything on the court. She drives hard to the basket battling through contact, and she can throw off her opponents with a jump stop to put up her shot. She knows how to create plays for her teammates drawing opponents towards her as she dishes the ball for some points. She can even post up on the block, and she shows off her strength when going after rebounds.
Jordann Nelson Jordann Nelson 5'4" | PG Ardrey Kell | 2022 NC | Ardrey Kell
Nelson does an excellent job reading the floor knowing exactly when to pick up the pace or slow it down to throw off her opponents. She finds her open teammates cutting to the basket timing her passes perfectly. She certainly drives the ball well to the hoop herself creating her own plays with crossovers and hesitation moves along the way. She doesn’t shy away from contact on defense, and she even crashes the boards going after rebounds.
Kaitlyn Walters Kaitlyn Walters 5'8" | CG Hickory Ridge | 2022 NC | Hickory Ridge
Walters has had an impressive summer so far serving in multiple positions for her Lady Attack Elite team. She can be a floor general handling the ball and controlling the tempo. She also does well sliding into the shooting guard role showing off her range from deep. She plays aggressive defense stripping the ball from her opponents to push the other direction. She sees the floor well anticipating passes to grab away from her opponents.
Madison Wieboldt Madison Wieboldt 5'8" | PG Carrboro | 2022 NC | Carrboro
You can always tell there’s a good shooter on the court when opponents try to keep the player as close as possible no matter where they are on the court. Wieboldt has a nice shot from downtown, and she knows how to drive the ball right when her opponents think they have stopped her. Her floater in the middle of the paint is difficult to defend. She is quick on defense jumping into passing lanes grabbing the steal and running the other direction with it.
