Mia Patterson, 5-6 2024, Beavercreek
A huge piece of energy to add to any roster. She’s a quick and strong guard, uses her speed to push the floor and uses her IQ to find her teammates for easy buckets. She is a gritty kid, can play physical and will play through it. A tough kid with good handles, pressuring defense. Had a good summer and ready for the new season ahead.

I loved watching her poise through every game. She has great energy on the floor and is a great teammate. She picks everyone up and hustles after every ball- keeps that physical energy rolling for any team. Looking to increase her contributions this season

A player who does whatever is needed. She has got strong size, great pick n roll with guards, and can pop a shot from outside. Just your typical hard worker who does what is needed for her team to win. Hoping for a big sophomore season.

Does a little bit of everything on the floor. She’s strong and aggressive on defense, has a strong drive to the paint, uses her body and is not afraid of contact. Physical player who will battle till the end. Has shown constant improvement, needs to continue to grow her game. Can score from the perimeter. (pictured left)
Ava Williams, 5-7 2024, Fairborn
This kid is hungry to improve. She has good intangibles and a heart to succeed on the court. She does all the little details needed for her team, good talk on the floor, always puts herself in a good position on the floor when running the ball or transitioning to defense. A bright future for her is she continues to dedicate herself to getting better.
Airah Lavy Airah Lavy 5'10" | SF Nelsonville York | 2024 State OH , 5-10 2024, Nelsonville York
I have said she is a solid D1 prospect from the first time I saw her play this summer, she has that “it” factor. A player that makes any team better. She has great effort on both ends of the floor, uses her strength on D and will pop a shot from the outside. Has great range, great court vision and should just get better. (pictured right)

She did it all, always was at the right place at the right time. She’s a great athlete with a high IQ, uses strength to create contact and score with ease, and will shoot it if left open. Don’t leave her open, you’ll regret it. Another D1 prospect and like Lavy, among the best overall 2024 players in Ohio. (feature photo above)

Great poise and attitude on the floor. She is confident and smooth with the ball, not afraid to drive in or shoot it, and despite her age, she is extremely composed and confident in her game. She has good handles, can play solid on-ball defense and plays with focus.
Zoe Best, 5-9 2024, Lima Shawnee
A strong player who plays with grit. She’s strong with the ball, has good hands on defense, will drive and finish strong in the paint. Good agile athletic kid with a solid future ahead of her. She plays the game hard with a desire to make her team better. Good young leader.
