The featured image is of [player_tooltip player_id='331820' first='Morgan' last='Crowe'] (2024) of Pike High School.   Saturday, September 10th, Prep Girls Hoops Indiana hosted the fourth annual Top-250 Expo. The event, which took place at the Noblesville Boys & Girls Club, included 129 registered participants, split up among all four high school-aged classes (2023-2026). I have already highlighted a handful of standouts in a couple of previous articles, but I also wanted to take the time to circle back and discuss many of the other girls who participated in the showcase. Also, once again, I want to thank all of the players, parents, and support staff who made this event a success!   TEAM 1: #7 - [player_tooltip player_id='361731' first='Trinity' last='Hogge'] - Munster H.S. - Trinity is a tough-nosed, feisty, hard-working point guard prospect. The lefty competes on every possession and does a nice job of getting into the paint and putting pressure on the defense, before finding teammates.   #40 - [player_tooltip player_id='404387' first='Violet' last='Hall'] - Bloomington H.S. South - I was able to see Violet for the second time in less than a month, and she continued to show a lot of promise for a 2026. Her skill and understanding of the game should benefit the Lady Panthers immediately.   #69 - [player_tooltip player_id='495987' first='Alivia' last='Otten'] - Crown Point H.S. - Alivia is a really nice, athletic guard. She has a wiry-strong frame, moves well in most directions, and is just all-around solid. She is the product of a good high school program, and she could earn solid minutes this year.   #73 - [player_tooltip player_id='496055' first='Makenzie' last='Mason'] - Jeffersonville H.S. - Makenzie is a strong, somewhat physical combo guard who plays with a really nice, competitive motor. She can play both on and off the ball, she can create as well, but she is best as a North/South attacker.   #81 - [player_tooltip player_id='496018' first='Faith' last='Frey'] - Columbia City H.S. - Faith is a nice, strong guard with a really good motor. She is definitely more of a '2' than anything, and in one game I saw, she got hot from the perimeter and buried a handful of 3-pointers in a row.   #100 - [player_tooltip player_id='496077' first='Stephanie' last='Phillips'] - Ben Davis H.S. - Stephanie is someone I wasn't familiar with entering the event. She has some strength, and she's a solid athlete in most directions. She'll attack the basket, she'll rebound/defend, and she plays with a nice motor.   #120 - [player_tooltip player_id='331770' first='Daneijah' last='Wynn'] - Lawrence North H.S. - Daneijah is a really nice combination of power and skill. She has a strong frame, looks more like an interior player than anything, but she has a solid handle, creativity, and some quickness/shiftiness to her.   #142 - [player_tooltip player_id='455946' first='Sara' last='Parkison'] - Clinton Central H.S. - <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">see event eval here</a>   #148 - [player_tooltip player_id='177326' first='Rachel' last='Harshman'] - Mooresville H.S. - <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-top-250-standouts/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-top-250-standouts/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">see event eval here</a>   TEAM 2: #19 - [player_tooltip player_id='361443' first='Brookelynn' last='Buzzard'] - Manchester H.S. - Brookelynn had a strong day and made plays at both ends of the floor. She has nice length, a wiry-strong frame, and she looks noticeably stronger and more assertive. She can effectively play on or off the ball.   #29 - [player_tooltip player_id='486535' first='Kenedi' last='Bradley'] - Chesterton H.S. - I saw Kenedi for the first time at our Freshman Showcase a few weeks back, and she has a lot of potential. She is an athletically strong kid, she moves effortlessly in most directions, and she has a versatile skillset.   #70 - [player_tooltip player_id='495986' first='Alivia' last='Delevic'] - Andrean H.S. - Alivia has a rather strong frame for a guard prospect. She plays mostly off the ball, can knock down an open rhythm jumper, and will occasionally attack the basket North/South with physicality. She plays with a nice motor.   #77 - [player_tooltip player_id='495982' first='Addisyn' last='Mckee'] - Linton-Stockton H.S. - Addisyn is a twin, and her sister will be in an upcoming article. Addisyn, however, is a strong, fairly athletic wing guard who plays with a lot of energy. She can attack the basket, knock down open shots, and she really competes.   #97 - [player_tooltip player_id='331820' first='Morgan' last='Crowe'] - Pike H.S. - Morgan is a very long, wiry-strong, and athletic wing. She kind of plays a point forward role, she likes to handle it in transition, and she can make plays for others off the bounce. She's also an effortful and versatile defender.   #137 - [player_tooltip player_id='298262' first='Carrie' last='Hiler'] - Scottsburg H.S. - Carrie played with one of the best motors at this event, as she usually does. She has gotten significantly stronger over the years, but she also has nice length. She is a dangerous perimeter shooter who needs little space.   #160 - [player_tooltip player_id='201870' first='Giselle' last='Eke'] - Bishop Dwenger H.S. - Giselle is somewhat of an intimidating force inside. She has a big, strong, enforcing type of frame. She is definitely a people-move inside, and she likes to establish herself on the block. She's also a physical rebounder.   TEAM 3: #31 - [player_tooltip player_id='496070' first='Reese' last='Withers'] - Corydon Central H.S. - This was my first time seeing Reese, and she is a long, wiry-strong kid with growth potential. She is a solid athlete in most directions, and she showed a versatile enough skillset to play most places on the wing.   #67 - [player_tooltip player_id='362315' first='Brooklyn' last='Sturgeon'] - North Knox H.S. - I've said it before, but Brooklyn probably gets as much/more out of her ability as anyone in the state. She is incredibly tough and hard-working, but she also plays with a nice basketball IQ and balanced skillset.   #75 - [player_tooltip player_id='324080' first='Ella' last='Mohamed'] - Northridge H.S. - The one thing about Ella's game that has stood out for a couple of years already, is that she is incredibly savvy and has a great feel for the game. She can really shoot it, she handles it solidly, but her cognitive maturity is key.   #87 - [player_tooltip player_id='495981' first='Abigayle' last='Clayton'] - Hamilton Southeastern H.S. - <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">see event eval here</a>   #94 - [player_tooltip player_id='331803' first='Emma' last='McVey'] - Franklin Central H.S. - Emma is all-energy, all the time. I don't know that she ever stops moving. She is a pure scorer who is looking to put it in the basket on every catch. Her handle and decision-making have improved. She's also defending better.   #105 - [player_tooltip player_id='404107' first='Ashley' last='Cox'] - DeKalb H.S. - I really like Ashley's upside, and I think once she finishes growing and gains a little more strength, she's going to be dangerous. She's smooth, can handle it a little, and has a nice jumper. She also has a natural feel for the game.   #143 - [player_tooltip player_id='496016' first='Emma' last='Norton'] - John Glenn H.S. - Emma is extremely long, fairly fluid, but she will need to continue gaining strength to absorb contact better. She has some perimeter skill, and I think she could be a solid pick-and-pop '4' or a nice mid-post scorer/attacker.   TEAM 4: #1 - [player_tooltip player_id='402337' first='Lailah' last='Hadley'] - Purdue Polytechnic H.S. - Lailah is a really nice point guard prospect I think a lot of small colleges would enjoy. She has some length at her height, she's a nice, wiry-strong athlete, and she plays with a motor. She is just a playmaker at both ends.   #3 - [player_tooltip player_id='496065' first='Mya' last='Thompson'] - Avon H.S. - This was my first time seeing Mya, and she was solid throughout the event. She isn't very big, but she's a capable athlete, she took care of the ball fairly well, and she got it to her team's playmakers. She also defended with effort.   #9 - [player_tooltip player_id='331819' first='Amya' last='Bass'] - Avon H.S. - Amya is a rather long, quick, feisty point guard prospect. She'll need to get a little stronger to absorb contact better when attacking, but she does a nice job of creating space and finding gaps in defenses. She also plays with a motor.   #16 - [player_tooltip player_id='496051' first='Madysyn' last='Butler'] - Carbondale H.S. (IL) - This was my first time see Madysyn, and she is a solid athlete, with a wiry-strong frame, some length, and a nice motor. She mostly played on the wing, and she showed the ability to knock down open jumpers.   #89 - [player_tooltip player_id='496029' first='Jaylee' last='Hubble'] - Lapel H.S. - I thought Jaylee had a nice day, and there are some small colleges in the state who could benefit from the way she played Saturday. She moves well in most directions, she has an athletic frame, and she scored the ball consistently.   #111 - [player_tooltip player_id='331797' first='Candyce' last='Hollins'] - Warren Central H.S. - Candyce is a long, wiry, athletic wing prospect. She likes to play sort of a point forward position and create offense for herself and teammates. She is solid attacking the basket, and she's a versatile defender.   #144 - [player_tooltip player_id='496015' first='Emma' last='Nelson'] - Greenfield-Central H.S. - <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/09/gamechangers-hello-my-name-is-___/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">see event eval here</a>
