Chloe Mills Chloe Mills 5'0" | PG Baltimore Poly | 2026 State MD , Poly, 2026, Point Guard– At 5’2″ Chloe is one of the smallest players in the tournament but she uses her size to her advantage. She is an absolute menace on defense, getting into ball handler’s space and applying relentless pressure. She is still learning to run a high school offense, but she is assertive, makes good decisions and can knock down shots.
Sydney Huskey, Frederick, 2024, Guard– Sydney is the county’s leading scorer because she is a threat to score from anywhere on the court. She excels in transition points because she plays aggressive defense and has good instincts and is a ball hawk. She is adept at finishing through contact and has range out to the three-point line.
Carmaya Bowman Carmaya Bowman 5'10" | PF Manchester Valley | 2023 State MD , Manchester Valley, 2023, Wing– Carmaya is a Shephard University recruit and a fun player to watch. A lefty with good size and length, she is versatile and impacts the game on both ends. Her range goes out to the three-point line, and she is effective in the paint. She is a good facilitator and is comfortable running the offense when necessary.
Destiny Macharia Destiny Macharia 5'8" | SG Oakland Mills | 2025 State MD , Oakland Mills, 2025, Guard–
Destiny is a big, physical guard that is capable of taking over a game. She is a good rebounder for a guard and does a lot of work on the offensive glass. She’s a slasher and is good at drawing contact. She spends a lot of time behind the 3 point-line and her shot from distance has to be respected.
Amoni Taylor, St. Charles, 2023 Point Guard–
Amoni is one of the top unsigned guards in the DMV area. Lightening quick and super athletic, Amoni is a handful on both ends of the court. Defenses have to respect her perimeter shooting so she gets plenty of opportunities to blow by defenders and get into the paint and cause problems. On defense she is solid on ball, and a good help defender.
Camille Nesmith Camille Nesmith 6'2" | C River Hill | 2026 State MD , River Hill, 2026, Center– Camille has had a solid freshman season and college coaches should get to know her if they do not already. She is every bit of 6’2″ and knows how to use her length. She is an excellent help defender, using footwork and good timing to block shots or deter them all together. Her offense is still emerging, but she can put the ball on the floor out of face up situations and finishes well at the basket. She draws a lot of fouls and does not shy away from contact.
Madison Williams, Oxon Hill, 2024, Guard– a big guard at 5’9″ and a real stat sheet stuffer. She is versatile as she can play on and off the ball and she has crazy range, often pulling up from a few feet inside the logo.
