Torie Neubauer Torie Neubauer 6'0" | PF Appleton East | 2025 State WI
The Appleton East forward is one of the more athletic kids you’ll find in the 2025 class, and she has size at six feet that can help her break games open. She beats opposing posts down the floor and can stretch the floor beyond the 3-point line if she feels like popping on screens. She moves well on the perimeter and shows plenty of ability on the defensive end of the floor.
Sophie Trimble Sophie Trimble 5'10" | SF Menomonee Falls | 2025 State WI
Menomonee Falls has been excellent this season, and a significant reason behind that is Sophie Trimble Sophie Trimble 5'10" | SF Menomonee Falls | 2025 State WI . She plays hard on both ends of the floor and battles for rebounds like few others. I love Trimble’s toughness and how well the sophomore plays through contact. She’s a strong kid and has some touch around the basket. The part of her game that’s most intriguing is that she’s still getting better, and she knows how to win. Trimble and Menomonee Falls are a group to watch over the next few seasons because they might surprise some people.
Haddie Showen Haddie Showen 5'9" | PG Westfield | 2025 State WI
The Westfield guard has seen about everything from defenses as a sophomore, and she’s only improved from it. I love how calm she is on the floor and how well she handled pressure when I saw her this season, and she keeps improving. The Pioneers are a team looking to return to the State Tournament for the third straight season. In my opinion, if they were to make a run to the Resch and possibly more, a significant reason why is the backcourt pairing of Carly Drew Carly Drew 5'8" | CG Westfield | 2024 State WI and Haddiw Showen. Keep an eye on those two.
Most people won’t have seen Edmond this season because Brookfield Central isn’t the most competitive team in the Greater Metro Conference. However, Edmond has done her thing all year long. She is one of the best rebounders around. Edmond broke her school’s single-season record as a sophomore, and that was about a week ago, so the Lancer is just building that up. Her offensive game has looked miles better than it did this summer, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she came back next season and was miles better than she was this year, which is scary.
