Sophyia Barreiro 5’2″ PG Colonial/Team Knight
Barreiro is a super feisty guard that plays with a tenacious level of energy and vigor. Able to split the defender and get to the rack. She has really improved her outside shooting skill over the last few years. A true leader for the loaded Grenadier team that went to State Final Four last year in the 7A Class. Should be an exciting year for her and her team. Barreiro recently signed with Hillsborough Community College in Tampa.
Eleecia Carter Eleecia Carter 5'7" | CG Lake Highland Prep | 2023 State FL 5’8″ SG Lake Highland Prep/CFE
Playing on one of the top programs in the State, and arguably in the country. Carter has played well over the years for the Highlanders and Coach Al Honor. She is a crafty player that sees the floor very well and plays well in the up-tempo offense. She can knock down the 3 ball and get to the cup with ease. Look forward to watching her play during this final season. Carter is a Chattanoga University commit.
Chloe Kitts Chloe Kitts 6'2" | SF Faith Christian Academy | 2022 FL 6’3″ SG Faith Christian/Southeast All Stars
Kitts is the number one ranked player in the 2023 class and a recent South Carolina commit. She has the ability to do everything. She has extremely skilled with excellent moves to the basket. She sees the floor very well, making on target, on time passes to her teammates. Kitts can knock down any shot on the floor, while being able to stop on a dime. Her step back jump shot is pretty much unstoppable.
Milan Santos Milan Santos 5'3" | PG Colonial HS | 2023 State FL 5’2″ SG Colonial/BSO
Santos, a recent Palm Beach Atlantic commit. She has a very bubbly, infectious positive attitude. Santos has showed a high level of skill playing for the Grenadiers over the last three years. A quick guard that is tough to get to the basket. A smart player that uses her body to get the foul, and finish with the contact. Santos can hit the outside jump shot, especially the three balls. Santos recently signed with Palm Beach Atlantic.
Alex Merceron Alex Merceron 5'9" | SF Bishop Moore | 2023 State FL 5’9″ PF Bishop Moore/ECU
Merceron has a great attitude and plays really hard. She plays on a loaded Hornets team that is looking to make some noise on the upcoming season. She can get to the cup and finish. A good team player that passes the ball very well. A South Carolina State commit.
