<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Among a group of very talented players these stood out the most at the Prep Girls Hoops Knoxville Knockout held at Rocky Top Sports World in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. </p> <p>More coverage to follow this week on these and other players from the event.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">First Team</span></p> <p><strong>Juliana Frazee - 6'2"/C - Franklin County - Richmond Heat </strong></p> <p>Best Center of the tournament.  She had the most complete offensive game in the post, is a good distributor from the paint and even has the ability to step out and make the three.  Defensively she plays tough without fouling much and has great stamina.  She was rim running on every offensive trip and always back on defense.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Amyannah Tucker - /PG - Troy - Dayton Vipers Elite </strong></p> <p>The best all-around Guard of the tournament.  Does not have blazing speed but makes up for it with basketball IQ, crafty ball handling and game savvy.  She can set herself up to score and makes her teammates better by getting them the ball where they can convert it into points.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Elaura Cox - 5'6"/PG - Oakland - EAB Tennessee </strong></p> <p>A quick footed defensive specialist with tons of offensive skills.  She turns defense into offense frequently and does a great job of running the show in the halfcourt.  Can get into the lane almost at will with a quick 1st step followed be several quicker steps.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Cameryn Ridderikhoff - 5'9"/SF - Franklin County - Richmond Heat  </span></strong></p> <p>Best Shooter and Stretch Player.  It got to the point where I felt like all of her threes were going to drop if she got an open look.  She also had great handles and passing skills in feeding the post, finding open cutters off the bounce and making crisp passes around the perimeter.  A Point Forward type that could develop into a Guard.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Brooke Haywood - 5'8"/PF - Chaminade Julienne - Dayton Vipers Elite </strong></p> <p>Best finisher.  She made buckets from multiple angles, through contact, on the move, fading away, floating towards the rim.  When a player makes a couple shots like this you might assume luck.  When you see her make them all game in multiple game you know she has a knack to put the ball in the hole.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Second Team</span></p> <p><strong>Peyton White - 5'11"/C - Gainesville Middle - SVM Select Rams</strong></p> <p>Best Rim Protector.  Blocked multiple shots.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Mekera Standridge - 5'3"/CG - Dacula - Team DBA </strong></p> <p><strong>V</strong>ery hard to contain with multiple scoring techniques.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Jay Minniefield - 5'4"/PG - Hueytown - Alabama Twisters Elite</strong></p> <p>Great Point Guard fundamentals.  High Basketball IQ.  Makes teammates better. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Sariyah Chester - 5'9"/SF - Pelham - One Step Away </strong></p> <p>Best All-Around Player that can do a little of everything well.  Shooter. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Madison Sheppard - 5'8"/PF - Veterans - One Step Away </strong></p> <p>Best Post Defender with a high motor and fundamental skills.  </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Third Team</span></p> <p><strong>Mariyah Valrie - 6'0"/C - Moutain View - Team DBA </strong></p> <p><strong>Nataya Strader - 5'5"/PG - Madison Central - Richmond Heat </strong></p> <p><strong>Mearah Whitehead - /SG - Archer - Team DBA </strong></p> <p><strong>Kennedy Hayes - 5'2"/SF - Westwood - One Step Away </strong></p> <p><strong>Koral Colosimo - 5'10"/PF - Hoover - Alabama Twisters Elite </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
