<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="217332" first="Kamryn" last="Grant"] 6-1, Forward, Africentric High School - </strong>The potential that this young lady has is amazing. Handling the basketball is not a problem for her, but is a problem for everyone else as she is tough to defend when driving to the lane, and in transition. She is a force, and a player that will continue to grow her game and will demand everyone’s attention.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="217333" first="Adrena" last="Gordon"] 5-10, SF, Akron Hoban High School -</strong> Her mid-range game has been the most improvement to her game.

<strong>Izzy Calloway 5-5, guard, Akron Hoban High School</strong> - She is a floor general that can facilitate the basketball. She can shoot it and getting her teammates involved is a sight to see from this young lady. Plays the game with pace and has good foot speed, and does a solid job with creating space. Smooth, and her basketball IQ is solid, and will only continue to grow with her experience and time on the court. Her developing strength will really help her
