My look at some of the top players continues this week from the Classic in the City, held in Pickerington last weekend. Again, I only saw a handful of teams with our other scouts watching the rest of the team. These are some of the players I saw from my teams. [player_tooltip player_id="217321" first="Berry" last="Wallace"], 6-1 2024, Pickerington Central- Every college coach in America knows about Berry, as she has made a big name for herself. She has all the tools, she has excellent post moves, a great inside-out player and great range. She is a legit mismatch nightmare with her size and athleticism. Can score from behind the arc. Sam Thompson, 5-8 2024, Africentric- Was impressed with her aggressiveness on the boards for her size, she does a nice job playing through contact. She is able to get to the rim and finish with either hand from either side. Love her style of game, she can play uptempo and push the ball in transition. Also has a solid midrange game. Mackenzie Harvey, 5-7 2025, Tri Valley- For being a freshman, Mackenzie is a very poised player with a good skillset to her game. Was impressed with her range and she is not afraid of taking the big shot. She is a clutch shooter and wants the ball in her hands down the stretch. Moves well. [player_tooltip player_id="217351" first="Aaliyah" last="Younger"], 5-5 2024, Gahanna Lincoln- She showed a very solid perimeter game and has deep range beyond the arc. Smart heady player with a good upside as her game continues to improve. She can push tempo and play at. high speed. Good motor and willing to show good leadership for her age. (feature photo above) [player_tooltip player_id="217320" first="Kya" last="Jordan"], 5-5 2024, Gahanna Lincoln- Another high intensity player who has all the tools to be one of the top guards in the region. For a sophomore, she shows shiftiness and can switch hands easily. She has a great shot fake and is able to create off her moves. Very solid court vision and can see the floor in transition. Aliyah Perry, 5-2 2024, Montverde (FL)- Impressive guard who plays bigger than her size. She played some valuable minutes in this lineup loaded with experienced next-level players. She possesses great handles and is a smart player with great speed and moves. Playmaker.
