- Grand Rapids
Lofstrom is a sleek, tall, small forward who can also play on the wing. The sophomore is the second-leading scorer on the team averaging 14.6 points per game and has helped her team win 20 games this year. She has stepped into more of a leadership role and will continue to get better as more lies on her shoulders. The #59-ranked player in the 2024 class is leading her team in highest field goal percentage and has shot the most free-throws. That’s because she is great at going downhill and finishing with contact. She is aggressive on both ends of the floor making it hard to guard her. The most underrated asset to her game is her rebounding where she leads the team with seven a game.

- Park Center
Park Center has had a tough year after losing their senior leader last year and number-one ranked player Adalia McKenzie (Illinois). However, they have had some bright spots with some underclassmen stepping up and taking on the big load. The 5’9 shooting guard is continuously getting better every time we see her. She rose 12 spots in our last ranking update and continues to prove she belongs in the conversation with the best. Ben uses her speed to her advantage, where she can beat almost anyone one-on-one when she's going downhill. She has a quick first step and athleticism that only some are born with. She, along with teammate Vanessa Saidu Vanessa Saidu 6'2" | SF Cooper | 2023 State MN , are the leading scorers for the Pirates averaging 12 points per game and will be on our radar as the year continues.

- Maranatha
The 5’10 shooting guard has looked good this year, helping Maranatha get off to a great start. She does just about everything for the team on both ends of the floor. On offense she finishes well and can shoot the three when she gets in rhythm and will hit at a high clip if she gets going. On defense she uses her long arms to block shots anywhere on the court whether it be getting her hand up and tipping the ball from an outside shot or down low when her player drives to the hoop. Simmons has the highest field goal percentage on the team, which may come from her not forcing anything, plus she is averaging 11.4 points per game.
