<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Girls Hoops Missouri takes a look at some of the top guards/wings that we watched on Monday on the second day of action at the 12 Courts of Christmas. The event is being held at the HyVee Arena in Kansas City.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='335937' first='Anonda' last='Ford'] (University Academy): A 5'9 2025 guard who is a high motor player who can score in a variety of ways. She is tough to stop when she starts to get downhill to the basket. She can knock down the 3-pointer and operate on the baseline in the gray area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='254694' first='Holly' last='Woods'] (Pembroke Hill): The 5'4 2024 point guard is quick and has a good feel for the game. She also plays with a fearlessness, which shows when she attacks the basket where the taller players roam. She may get knocked down, but she keeps coming back. She runs the pick and roll well as a passer and scorer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Modesta Wilmhelmson (St Joe Lafayette): A 2023 guard who is effective on the drive and she can score with either hand. She has a nice hesi move to the basket. She plays with good pace and she's stays in constant motion.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='302751' first='Charlie' last='Windmann'] (Pembroke Hill): A 5'9 freshman wing who is versatile enough to hit pull up 3-pointers and play inside and score in the post. She has solid playmaking skills as a passer and ball handler.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Honor Mannings (St Joe Lafayette): A 5'7 2024 wing who has good quickness and athleticism. She is excellent in the high post area where she can slash to the basket or hit the one dribble pull up. She also has quick feet and a nice spin move in the lane.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='418790' first='Beclynn' last='Garrett'] (Neosho): A 5'10 2025 guard who has good height and versatility as the team's primary ball handler. She drops some nice dimes on the pick and roll. She was also disruptive with the length at the top of the zone defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Keylie Beane (Lathrop): A 5'7 2024 point guard who plays the part of a floor general very well. She handles the ball with confidence and she sets up her teammates well. The lefty can also make an open 3-pointer. She also has quick hands on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
