Rogers handles the ball well under pressure, that’s always a good thing and she showed a nice crossover both in the open court as well as the set but she also saw the floor and her on the money passes to her teammates set them up for scoring opportunities but she also showed she could score attacking or with the jumper
Jaeli Atchinson (ID Elite 2026)
Atchinson can flat out shoot the ball, she dropped a 3, then another, and then yet another as it appeared she was playing “around the world” with herself but her release is quick, she even showed the catch and shoot and as I was watching her range, I just smile because that will create big headaches
Jaylen Cauthron (PWP 2027)
Cauthron has UPS by her name, which means she elevates off the ground with ease yet she also took me, Up Up and Away with her scoring, both off the dribble and using the jumper yet her court vision was nice, in the set as well as in transition and her defense “on the ball” was good also
Lexie Hecht (SSA Gameball)
Hecht had me tweeting “awe heck” as I watched her do some pretty impressive things at the 1 such as controlling the tempo and handling the ball under pressure but that wasn’t enough as she scored both off the dribble and from very deep range but her court vision was “icing on the cake”
Finley Chastain (SSA Gameball 2026) [2028]
Chastain had me thinking she was an urban legend because I have to see things for myself and I was upset when I saw a tweet about her being there and I thought I missed her, I don’t look at the roster during games yet when I back to my notes, I just smiled as she created her shot under pressure and scored both off the dribble and with the mid to long-range, huge upside
Kaylin Carraway (Team Ten 15U) [2026]
Carraway almost had me carried away as I was enjoying her variety of moves yet that cross-over is already next level ready yet that floater ain’t nothing to take lightly as she zig-zags her way to the rim to finish. She also saw the floor and made some solid passes but her ability to create her shot and knock it down was also nice
CeMaria Kelly (Waco United 2025) 2026
Kelly has me doing some big girl things on the court for a while, she’s long and athletic, yeah that base works for guards also and on the front page, you see how she attacks the basket but her body control enables her to finish not only acrobatically at times but after contact. She can also drop the mid to long-range yet she doesn’t comprehend what pressure is as she plays the same way no matter what and her huge free throws sealed a victory on closing day
Keyaira Limuel (Competitive Edge 2024)
Limuel is also “long and athletic” and with her strides, that first step sets everything not only up, but off as she slices her way to the basket and finishes multiple ways yet I’m digging her progression at setting the defender up to drop the jumper. She elevates, remember she’s long and she gets her shot off with ease but she, drumroll please, plays the passing lane which usually leads to scoring opportunities going the other way
