Ashley Kerekes Ashley Kerekes 5'10" | PF Copley | 2023 State OH , 5-9, Buckeye State Blast 2023 Scarlet
Loved how active she was on defense in the game I saw Saturday afternoon. She is a fundamentally sound guard with good hands and she has excellent court vision. She is able to push the ball in transition and play at a high tempo. She does a good job reading the game with excellent body control to get to the rim and score. Strong with both hands.
Grace Craig, 6-1, Buckeye State Blast 2023 Scarlet
A long and athletic player who played well for this talented group. She has a nice touch around the rim and possesses good footwork around the paint. She keeps the ball high and is capable of a big rebounding game. She is playing in a program that will help her grow her game. Good hands and a solid defender.
Kaylan Deveney Kaylan Deveney 6'4" | PF Life Center Academy | 2023 State NJ , 6-3, Books and Basketball 2023
A strong post player who can do more damage around the rim, she can get the job done out on the perimeter. Good range, behind the arc. Defensively she can alter or block shots in the paint with her size. Good rebounder, able to secure the ball. I liked the way she moves without the ball.
Lailah Hadley, 5-2, DW3 Elite 2023
The first thing that stuck out me when I saw her game was her ability to pass the ball. She made some outstanding passes, no-look included. She has quick hands and sees the court well. Loves to push the ball in transition. Solid handles. Also does a good job on the defensive side of the ball.
Olivia Trusty, 5-10, Cincy Chargers 2023
She caught my eye in this game the way she handled the game around the rim. She showed some very good moves in the paint and her footwork was solid, She did a great job rebounding the ball and showed the ability to attack and score. Olivia can play physical and play through contact.
