There are no secrets in Camas anymore. She is the real deal and one of the best floor generals in the state. She has phenomenal court vision and makes highlight reel passes. She has made her name known not only in the state of Washington but across the country with her point guard skills. She can score it and shoot it but seems to embrace her role as a facilitator. She could be the biggest stock riser in the 2025 class. She leads a loaded Camas team that is the favorite in Class 4A.

I have already written about her recently but she is making my list as one of the best prospects in the Class of 2025. Although she may be a small forward she has guard skills. She does everything well and has the size to go with it. She is one of the best shooters I have seen.and projects to become an elite shooter. She scores on all levels with floaters and drives to the hoop. She is great in the open floor and handles the ball well. She is 6’2. She has one of the biggest upsides I have seen this season.
She is like a lightning bolt on the floor and can hit threes in bunches. Once she gets any sort of space she lets it fly with a quick release. She had six threes against Redmond last week and has had multiple treys in most of her games this season. She is shooting her way up the rankings. She is also a pesky defender and creates problems with her quickness.
Highlights
Another one of the biggest stock risers in the Class of 2025. She was averaging 26 a game through her first six and has had games of 32 and 29 to name a couple since. Her 34 points vs Woodinville was a statement game in a win over the current #2 team in 4A. She had 18 points or more in a stretch of 4 out of 8 games before halftime earlier in the year. Most of those were blowouts and she didn’t play as much in the 2nd half. She has a great offensive skill-set that includes threes, pull-up jumpers, and strong drives to the hoop. Her mid-range game is excellent. One of the best young guards in Class 1A or any level.
Highlights
Transfer from Yelm is the most talented player in the Central 2B. She did well playing at the 3A level last season as a freshman. She has stepped it up in her sophomore year with some big game including 25 last night vs MWP. She can shoot the three and is one of the best ball handling guards in the league. Might be the favorite for league MVP.

For those who may not know, Hermiston is part of the Mid-Co 3A/4A conference She is a lights out shooter with some deep range. She is shooting her way up the rankings, she has had some big scoring games this season including 26 last week against Kennewick. She has a good floor game as well and can play either guard position.
A shooter when left open can make you pay. She has deep range and is strong enough to shoot it from well beyond the three point line. She is averaging 17 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists on the season. Although she has struggled with her shot at times, she is one you don’t want to lose on defense. She does a lot for her team including running the point and filling the stat sheet as evidenced by her numbers.
