Ellie Muller, Beyond Basketball 2025
I got to see her in the very first game on Saturday morning, and was impressed with how skilled she was playing on this freshman team… as an eighth-grader. Ellie is a long, athletic post with active hands. She does a nice job scoring down low at the rim and has a soft touch on her shots in the paint. Good footwork and fundamental. can block/alter shots with her length.
Ashlyn Boeckmann, Quad City Shockers 2024
She was very effective aggressive player with excellent footwork and solid ball quickness. Good quickness and a solid defender with good court awareness. Does a good job getting in position. Really loved her demeanor on the court, possesses a high basketball IQ.
Kaylee Ruberg, Air Minnesota 2023
Excellent footwork around the rim and showed good range out beyond the arc. From what I saw in her game, she showed me good work ethic and a smart, heady game with the ability to take control of a game. A good catch-and-shoot player but does have the ability to create. She’s just tough and a true blue collar worker!!
Brooklyn Heineman, United Sports Academy 2023
Probably my favorite player of the weekend. Great leadership skills and is a natural floor general from the guard spot. Scrappy and aggressive with a good jump shot. Has deep range and I loved her swagger, all in a positive way. A vocal player and active around the ball.
Ella Lavigne, State 38 Basketball 2023
Had a great game early in the event, I saw her Sunday and was impressed with what she can bring to her team. She can put the ball on the floor and is a great shooter with deep range. Anticipates the play on defense and is long and athletic who reads and reacts well. Nice crossover and can get to the rim.
