Continue ReadingThe Ottawa-Kent Conference is one of the biggest conferences in the state, boasting 46 schools. The Red Division is one of the best conferences in the state for Girls Basketball: home to perennial powers like East Kentwood, Hudsonville, and Rockford. The Red lost a lot of very good players (Alina Anderson, Deyonce Thomas, Jaci Tubergen, and Alaina Diaz), but still has a ton of fire power returning. The Red is where you want to come if you like three point assassins.
Maddie jumped to the second overall spot in the PGH rankings. She is a stretch big that is absolutely fearless from deep. Her range is easily to WNBA standards. She plays passing lanes well and can go coast to coast as well as any guard.
Rockford has a great 3 and D player in senior Alyssa Wypych Alyssa Wypych 5’10” | PG Rockford | 2023 State MI . She has deep range on her spot up threes and plays passing lanes for well. The hard nosed guard just missed the PGH Top 15 by a spot.
The PGH Top 50 guard is an absolute sniper from deep. Kid dropped 5 three pointers against West Bloomfield in the State Semi-finals. The kid is fearless and needs less than a foot of space to drive in the dagger.
Hailing from Caledonia, #22 is another 3 and D player with deep range. She can hit from deep off the bounce and step back moves and lives in passing lanes. The streaky scorer can’t be left open.
Known for her volleyball prowess, Terin is a spunky, hard-nosed point guard that plays with physicality. She is absolutely a terror off the dribble and loves contact.
Gabby was one of only two sophomores to make the All Conference team, and West Ottawa will need her to have another great year. She has the ability to be a big time scorer yet makes a ton of plays on the defensive side. She is a willing passer that seems to make the right reads.

As a 10th Grader, Harmonie made Honorable Mention All Conference. She is known as a lock down defender that really makes other teams work for every inch of ground. She is going to be called on this year to up her offense and to be a leader for East Kentwood.
As a sophomore, Emersen showed the ability to score off catch and shoot, pnr, post ups, midrange, and cutting. She plays with high energy and will need to have a monster year for Grand Haven to climb the OK Red ladder.
The Grandville point guard did a lot of damage in passing lanes last year. She rebounds really well for a guard. She was a streaky scorer last year but needs to shoulder more of a load this year.
