Gracy Wernli Gracy Wernli 5'9" | SG Bixby | 2023 State OK -5’10 SG (Bixby HS) Team Griffin Elite 2023 Werli [2023]
Wernli amazed me the first time I saw her with her ability to shoot the ball, nothing has changed as she creates her shot so well under pressure, and with her unlimited range and quick release, that flick of the wrist just leaves me speechless yet her attacking the rim and finishing strongly coupled with her court vision set it off for me but to say she is one of the best shooters in her class would be a huge understatement
Allison Leisher-6’0 SF (Coronado HS) P..L.U.T.O. Prospects 2023 [2023]
Leisher is long and athletic, I call that the base yet watching her do damage on both ends of the court throughout the game is why I chose her. Yea, she attacked the basket relentlessly and showed some acrobatic finishes however she also “manned up” on defense and did what I love to see, play the passing lane but she also rebounded on both ends and showed good timing to block shots

-6’0 SG ( Norman HS) Team Trae Young [2025]
Parks got hurt at this same event a year ago yet to say she came back with vengeance would be an understatement. Her ability to create her shot is second to none, she understands when and where to let it fly and at times it was like watching target practice as she effortlessly filled it up yet one play in e open court left me speechless as it was not only a “next level” move but the highest of the next level after “the next level”
Sania Richardson Sania Richardson 5'5" | PG Grind Prep | 2025 State OK -5’6 SG-(Ada HS) BTR [2025]
Richardson was last season’s Oklahoma Freshman Of The Year I definitely see why as she’s added muscle and her attacking and finishing almost effortlessly after contact helped get my adrenaline going yet she kept it flowing dropping NBA range three pointers. Her first step is explosive and since she can shoot it or attack, that creates multiple problems for the defense because she’s explosive, and when you factor in her poise under pressure …
KaMyra Barber KaMyra Barber 5'9" | PG Wichita Heights | 2025 State KS -5’7 SG (Sunrise Christian Academy HS) Kansas Bluejays 2023 [2025]
Barber did a good job of doing, well everything because she is one of those “never takes a play-off” type of player and she showed me her versatility on the offensive end early. Her pull-up jumper in transition, I call that te “stop and pop” was so refreshing as I love seeing new players that can fill it up yet she also scored off the dribble and after contact. Her “on the ball” defense helped create turnovers
