Hannah Linthacum Hannah Linthacum 6'3" | PF Jefferson City | 2023 State MO 6’3 Jefferson City: The 2023 Mizzou commit plays a solid all-around game as the focal point for a very young team. She can operate well inside, but she can also handle the ball and be a playmaker for her teammates.
Mackenzie Wilson 5’5 Lift for Life: The 2022 point guard was a bright spot in the Hawks loss to a powerful St Thomas Aquinas team. She finished with a team-high 14 points, including three 3-pointers. Her quickness and perimeter shooting helped keep the Hawks competitive for the first half.
