Kennedy is a skilled combo guard who played well out ball screens in ECU offensive system. She came off screens shoulder to shoulder both on middle and side ball screens, reading the defense, balancing her attack between getting to the rim, feeding the roller for easy buckets or creating penetrate and kick opportunities. She has a high basketball IQ and with good energy. She is a very good passer, with a high basketball IQ and a good decision maker.

Severe moves up 2 spots to # 67 overall. She is a big, strong, versatile forward that can play multiple positions. Her skill set needs to continue to progress and she needs to continue to work on her perimeter game to continue climbing the rankings but her strong build and broad shoulders help her be effective down low in the paint.

Position Rank: 15
Green is a scrappy combo guard with a ton of potential. She is one of the state’s most under rated players because she plays hard and aggressive on both ends. She is an impactful on ball defender who is tenacious at picking up opposing point guards’ baseline to baseline. Green moves up 80+ spots all the way to # 87 overall.

Ortiz moves up 30 spots to # 117 overall. She is a big guard who does a good job attacking in transition and using her body to score at the rim. At 5’9 she handles it well, has a nice mid-range jumper, and distributes the ball to open teammates leading them to easy baskets.

Ranking: 136
Previous Ranking: 225
Position Rank: 25
Shorstein was one of my favorite players of the summer and therefore moves up close to 100 spots, all the way to # 136 overall. Shorstein played as a combo guard who is a knock down, let it fly, high percentage 3-point shooter! She has a wide base, gets her feet set quick and has nice form. Not just a perimeter shooter, she played well of the shot fake when defenders closed her out to hard and put it to the floor and attacked the paint under control scoring at the rim or making easy drop passes for layups to teammates.
