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 5:
#78 –
Alyvia Mckee
Alyvia
Mckee
5'6" | SG
Linton-Stockton | 2025
IN
– Linton-Stockton H.S. – Alyvia is a twin, and her sister was mentioned in our previous article on Team-2. Alyvia is very similar in size, strength, and style of play. She is a bit more of a wing than a ball-handler, but skillful and hard-working.
#93 – Camryn Andrus Camryn Andrus 5'7" | SG Eastern Hancock | 2025 IN – Eastern Hancock H.S. – Camryn has really nice length, a wiry-strong frame, and she’s a solid all-around athlete. She is a very good perimeter shooter and can get hot quickly. She also handles it fairly well and can initiate/run offense.
#99 – Ellie Richardson Ellie Richardson 5'8" | CG Scottsburg | 2025 State IN – Scottsburg H.S. – Ellie had an outstanding Spring & Summer, and she is shooting the ball extremely well from the perimeter. She has an athletic frame with some length, and she can also act as a primary ballhandler and run offense.
#109 – Myah Johnson Myah Johnson 5'9" | SF Jeffersonville | 2023 IN – Jeffersonville H.S. – Myah is a nice, athletic, combo forward with good length and wiry strength. She plays with a nice motor, she’ll hit the boards hard, and she is probably at her best when she’s attacking the basket aggressively.
#113 – Kya Hurt Kya Hurt 5'7" | PG Lawrence North | 2025 State IN – Lawrence North H.S. – Kya is a really nice point guard talent in the 2025 class. She has a strong, athletic frame, she is a nice North/South athlete, and she plays with some physicality at the position. She doubles as an effective scorer.
#123 – Natalie Robinson Natalie Robinson 6'0" | PF Marquette Catholic | 2025 State IN – Marquette Catholic H.S. – A year ago, I felt like Natalie was somewhat stuck between positions, but now she looks very comfortable as a mid-post forward. She can shoot or attack from there, and she’s a nice pursuing rebounder.
#127 – Abbie Lucas Abbie Lucas 6'0" | PF Bloomington South | 2024 State IN – Bloomington H.S. South – Abbie is an athletic, energetic forward who plays with a nice motor. She has some length, a lot of bounce, and she has become a very good rebounder/defender with a developing offensive game.
TEAM 6:
#13 –
Megan Hamilton
Megan
Hamilton
5'5" | PG
Westfield | 2025
IN
– Westfield H.S. – This was my first time seeing Meg, and she will need to build strength, but she has really nice length, good quickness, and she plays with a motor. She did a nice job of playing a traditional point guard role.
#71 – Makenzie Fuess Makenzie Fuess 5'5" | PG Norwell | 2024 State IN – Norwell H.S. – Over the last year, Kenzie has been one of the most improved players in the state, and she is playing with a great deal more confidence. She is strong, tough, quick, and skilled, and her teammates feed off of it.
#92 – Justyce Williams Justyce Williams 5'8" | CG Jimtown | 2024 State IN – Jimtown H.S. – I’ve always liked Justyce, as she is a nice, athletic talent, and she plays with some versatility. She is aggressive to the basket, she can handle it a little, and I like her attention to the defensive end of the floor.
#96 – Brynna Collins Brynna Collins 5'7" | SG North Knox | 2025 State IN – North Knox H.S. – Brynna is a fairly strong wing, she plays with a nice motor, and she is willing to be physical and rebound at her size. Throughout the Spring & Summer, she showed improved ball skill and more accuracy outside.
#135 – Molli Lucas Molli Lucas 5'6" | SF Bloomington South | 2025 IN – Bloomington H.S. South – Molli is another strong wing prospect who always competes with a nice motor. She is physical, she’ll rebound and defend, and she primarily looks to score it in the mid-range or at the basket.
#150 – Alyssa Groover Alyssa Groover 6'0" | PF Corydon Central | 2025 State IN – Corydon Central H.S. – see event eval here
#153 – Brooke Karesh Brooke Karesh 6'3" | C Zionsville | 2024 IN – Zionsville Community H.S. – Brooke continues to improve each year, but most noticeable now is her balance and strength. She has good size, some length, and she plays hard. Now, she’s completing plays more consistently.
TEAM 7:
#68 –
Ava Mikesell
Ava
Mikesell
5'4" | PG
Northeastern | 2025
State
IN
– Northeastern H.S. – This was my first time seeing Ava in-person, and she definitely has some intriguing qualities to her game. She has really nice length, wiry strength, and she is a nice North/South athlete with good vision.
#74 – Reagan Shaw Reagan Shaw 5'5" | SG Tri-West | 2024 IN – Tri-West H.S. – Reagan is a strong and physical wing prospect who doesn’t mind playing with some physicality. She’s a solid athlete, she plays with a really nice motor, and she showed some skill at all three levels.
#90 – Jaya Johnson Jaya Johnson 5'7" | SG Elkhart | 2024 IN – Elkhart H.S. – If there was ever a 3-and-D kid, it’s probably Jaya. She buried 57 3-pointers a season ago at a 37% clip, and she is a nice on-ball defender who can pick up 84-feet. She’s long, athletically strong, and bouncy.
#91 – Emma Haan Emma Haan 5'8" | SG Zionsville | 2024 State IN – Zionsville Community H.S. – see event eval here
#103 – Joyce Smiley Joyce Smiley 5'9" | SF Avon | 2025 IN – Avon H.S. – Saturday was my first opportunity to see Joyce, and she was very intriguing to watch. She has length, wiry strength, and she’s a solid all-around athlete. She can play point forward and create or battle some inside.
TEAM 8:
#25 –
Divine Woods
Divine
Woods
5'7" | SF
Michigan City | 2025
IN
– Michigan City H.S. – Divine certainly brought the energy. She is extremely long, she’s a nice North/South athlete, and she plays with a motor. With her effort, as she continues to gain skill, she’ll only be more productive.
#72 – Karleisha Echols Karleisha Echols 5'6" | PG Penn | 2024 State IN – Penn H.S. – Karleisha looks noticeably stronger than the last time I saw her, but she’s still a really nice athlete with a natural feel for the game. She can play on or off the ball offensively, as she can handle, pass, and shoot.
#80 – Samara Miller Samara Miller 5'7" | CG Floyd Central | 2025 IN – Floyd Central H.S. – This was my first opportunity to see Samara, and she is a solid ballplayer. She has a strong frame, she can play on or off the ball, and she has a nice basketball IQ and overall feel for the game/position.
#88 – Alyson Powers Alyson Powers 5'9" | SG Greensburg | 2026 State IN – Greensburg H.S. – Aly was very good at our Freshman Showcase, but I felt like she stepped it up more at times against the older players. She is so long, fluid, and bouncy, and she plays with an outstanding motor and skill.
#122 – Isabella Soria Isabella Soria 5'11" | SF Lake Central | 2025 IN – Lake Central H.S. – Isabella looked stronger, more aggressive, but also a little more explosive. She is playing with a renewed confidence, shooting and handling it well, and she’s starting to defend the ball much better.
#149 – Brooke Winchester Brooke Winchester 6'0" | PF Warsaw Community | 2025 State IN – Warsaw Community H.S. – A year ago, I felt like Brooke was trying to figure out what she was position-wise. Now, she looks stronger, more physical and aggressive, and Saturday she dominated the interior at times.
