Jael Green Jael Green 5'3" | PG University City | 2026 State MO (Holt): A talented pass-first point guard who has excellent quickness and a high basketball IQ. Her court vision is excellent as she can spot open teammates from anywhere on the floor. She delivered some pinpoint passes from different spots on the court. She has good speed in the open court and a nice burst to get by defenders to get into the lane for buckets.
Ava Albanese Ava Albanese 6'2" | SF Monteverde Academy | 2026 State FL (Villa Duchesne): A 6’0″ forward who is very skilled and can create matchup problems with her height and versatility. She has excellent shooting range from 3-point territory as she can really stretch the floor. She is very mobile with very good playmaking ability. She can handle the ball and hit the pull up jumper. She can also score over smaller defenders in the post with her height.
Josie Christopher (O’Fallon, IL): A 5’3″ point guard from the Metro East Illinois area with solid quickness along with good handles and decision making ability. She was always looking to probe the defense to penetrate in the lane, where she would make the right pass to the open teammate. She would also hit the open 3-pointer.
Ava Vanecek Ava Vanecek 5'9" | SG Webster Groves | 2026 State MO (Webster Groves): I watched this 5’8″ guard the day before at the Energy 40 Camp and was impressed with her all-around play and Sunday was no different. She is a versatile player with the fundamentals and skill set to excel at multiple spots on the floor. She can handle the ball and make plays like a point guard and she can also go inside and rebound with the forwards while also being able to make a 3-pointer.
Madyson Ford Madyson Ford 5'9" | PF Cardinal Ritter | 2026 State MO (Cardinal Ritter): The 5’9″ forward was very impressive during the scrimmage session with her high motor and constant activity. She made one impressive defensive play where she ran the court with great hustle and got a blocked shot in transition. It was typical of the effort she put out as she rebounded and defended very well. She also scored on a couple of strong drives to the basket.
Jamisen Green Jamisen Green 5'10" | CG Harrisburg | 2026 State IL (Harrisburg, IL): A 5’9″ wing player from Southern Illinois who has solid fundamentals and a nice shooting stroke from 3-point range. She did a nice job of moving without the ball to find the open spots for her perimeter shots. She moved the ball well with her passing and played off of her teammates very well.
