Players from all over the state played three games and had the chance to shine in front of college coaches, myself, and Scott Hankamp. I walked away with a list of kids that I can’t wait to follow this year. The competition was intense, yet I saw a lot of kids just enjoying the game. Below are some notes that I jotted down from the event.
Demi Bolton Demi Bolton 5'6" | CG Ferndale | 2025 State MI | Hamtramck | 2025
This is a fun kid to watch; very bouncy player that plays above others; solid finisher through contact; intimidating defender that picked several pockets
Alison Farr Alison Farr 5'5" | PG Howell | 2025 State MI | Howell | 2025
Has nice outlet passes after defensive rebounds; high energy as always; shots weren’t falling yet she is getting into the right spots- off day as I have seen her hit a lot of shots in the past; in your face defender that created havoc
Zion Belcher-Arill Zion Belcher-Arill 6'2" | PF Campbell Hall | 2025 CA | Grand Rapids Christian | 2025
No girl this tall should shoot the way she does- her shoot is silky and has deep range; sets nice screens and rolls well; seriously, the kid shoots like a guard, crazy nice stroke
Ava Davis Ava Davis 5'8" | SG Northview | 2023 State MI | Northview | 2023
Strong kid that isn’t moved from her spot; finishes with authority; rebounds well on both sides of the floor
Madison Page Madison Page 5'5" | SG Midland | 2025 State MI | Midland | 2025
Smart kid that knew when to pressure and when to play off; had some nice steals; super quick release on shot
Emilie Eritano Emilie Eritano 5'3" | PG Lamphere | 2025 State MI | Lamphere | 2025
Not sure where Lamphere is but need to find out, this kid is good; sneaky player: has good head fakes and stalks passing lanes like a pro
Mackenzie Kyles Mackenzie Kyles 5'6" | PG Detroit Cass Tech | 2024 State MI | Cass Tech | 2024
Strong bodied kid that uses it; Had multiple steals which went for coast to coast layups
Kadyn Maida Kadyn Maida 5'9" | SG Saline | 2025 State MI | Saline | 2025
Shocking (jk) a Saline kid that can flat out shoot; had a massive block in transition that got me out of my seat; solid offensive player
Samara Mackey Samara Mackey 5'7" | SG Cass Tech | 2026 State MI | Thurston | 2026
This kid is a rookie?? No way a freshman has this many facets to her game; strong takes to the basket; nice post work; hits open catch and shoot threes. Are we sure that she is a freshman?
Karma Jones-Johnson | Romulus | 2024
Kid is super fast; has a high IQ and just sees the game well; high energy player that is always hustling
Avery Vogel Avery Vogel 5'3" | PG Paw Paw | 2023 State MI | Paw Paw | 2023
One of my favorite plays of the day: Avery went through two players to grab a rebound with a third opponent and ripped the ball away with mean intent; disruptive and picked up multiple steals; super active on both sides
Mariah Kerley Mariah Kerley 5'9" | SF East Jackson | 2025 State MI | East Jackson | 2025
Sweet high energy save to keep play alive; stretch big; great feel for the game; makes use of high level jump stops and head fakes
