You can look at Trista Charles Trista Charles 5’11” | CG Oak Grove | 2025 State NC ‘ 5’11” frame and tell that she can do a little bit of everything on the basketball court. While many people may have expected someone with good height at a young age to automatically be inside the paint, Charles actually excels at shooting around the perimeter. She can shoot off the dribble or find the open space for a catch and shoot opportunity. She handles the ball well, too, knowing how to get all of her teammates involved.
Brooklyn Saunders Brooklyn Saunders 5’5″ | PG Butler | 2025 State NC had a strong freshman season taking over as the floor general for her team as if she had been playing high school ball for years. She controls the tempo of the game and knows how to direct her teammates on where to go. She uses a variety of fakes and moves to finesse her way to the basket, and she has a nice shot from deep. Look for her to continue being dominant on both ends of the court this high school season.
Mary Church Mary Church 5’7″ | SG East Rowan | 2025 State NC goes full speed when she steps on the court. She is constantly going after loose balls and using her quickness to jump into passing lanes on the defensive end. On offense, she can barrel through any opponent and show off a nice finish at the rim. She knows how to shift the defense opening up the court for herself or finding an open teammate for their own points.
Highlights
Kylie Torrence Kylie Torrence 6’1″ | SF High Point Christian | 2025 State NC has certainly been getting more and more attention from college coaches and rightfully so. She’s bringing an inside presence to the reigning state champions at High Point Christian dominating the block with her post moves and ability to rebound. On the defensive side of the ball, she’s definitely a shot blocker making it difficult for anyone to score in the paint.
Amanda Mitchell Amanda Mitchell 6’2″ | C Willow Springs | 2025 State NC plays at a high level with Lady Strong/Strong Center as they’re usually playing against older teams. She knows how to move from block to block to get open, and she seals off her opponents with ease. She puts the power in power dribble to get positioned for some points. Opponents better learn to box her out as offensive rebounds turn into points with her.
