Has the measurables to unnoticeably impact games with her size and ability to impact shots in the paint. Prefers to play high post and needs to build consistency when being defended. Far from polished but when coaches see the potential skillset, matched with her measurables and four years to improve; one can only help think what kind of player Carmen can become. <strong><img class=" wp-image-338923 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/image_6487327-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="227" height="341" /></strong> &nbsp; <strong>Lorelai Czapka</strong> - Guard / Wing (Hagerty High School) High IQ, can naturally spot up and score when comfortable. Committed to learning to play with pace &amp; space. Improving speed and agility will allow the chance to keep up defensively and will enhance her confidence to take big shots. <strong>Izzy Lindauer</strong> - Guard / Wing (Hagerty High School) Izzy stands out with her hard work and hustle on both ends of the floor, playing hard from tip off to final buzzer.  She consistently lays it all on the line defending at a high level and not being afraid to play physical.  Her defense and intangibles are her strongest attributes.  Playing mainly as an off guard, Lindauer needs to develop her ball handling, so she can develop more into a combo guard and have the option of running the point guard position. &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Class of 2026</strong> <strong>Bella Cruz</strong> - Guard Cruz is the first player to dive on the floor for a loose ball.  She is a warrior who is a selfless teammate consistently setting screens, moving without the ball, cutting to the basket, and just doing anything her team needs to help win the game.  She gets after it on both ends of the floor and is a gritty and tenacious defender.  Not yet in High School, if Cruz develops her game on the offensive side of the floor – improving her range and handle, things will really open up for her and make her a more consistent and impactful player. &nbsp; <strong>Emma Noone</strong> - Guard Noone is an undersized guard who is a solid perimeter shooter with good form and a soft touch.  She is a hoop junkie, who soaks up information from her coaches and trainers and is consistently working on her game.  She has solid footwork and is doesn’t back down in pressure situations and not afraid of taking the big shot.  She needs adapt to the physicality of the game and improve her handle and decision making in traffic. <strong>Jillian Henneberry</strong> - Guard Henneberry is a shifty guard that is very skilled offensively.  She has great offensive footwork, basketball IQ, and court vision.  She consistently showcased a deadly jab step, great pass and shot fakes, keeping defenders off balance.  Playing as an undersized guard, she uses her high IQ and ball handling to attack the basket and get into the paint.  She handles the ball well out of the backcourt vs pressure and can play both guard positions. &nbsp; <strong>Kayden Gause</strong> - Guard Gause is a competitor that gets after it on both ends of the play and is not afraid of aggressive and physical play.  She is difficult to defend, as she does a good job creating her own shot or one for her teammates attacking off the dribble.  She can pick up opposing teams point guard full court and truly embraces guarding the other team’s best players. &nbsp; We will look to continue to cover news all across the state.  Our audience supplies us with some of our best information.  Keep us updated on Florida news be emailing me at <a href="mailto:WholeyPrepHoops@gmail.com">WholeyPrepHoops@gmail.com</a> or DM’ing me through Twitter or Instagram @WholeyPrepHoops.
