Kyra Haan Kyra Haan 5'8" Mead | 2023 CO – Mead
Haan has impacted winning at an especially efficient pace this season. She provides value on the defensive side of the floor, keeping her arms out wide to stunt passing lanes. With 20-6 Mead, the guard put up 14.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 4.2 steals per game. She scored very efficiently, contributing 59% of two points attempts and 36% of three point attempts. The former Maverick will soon become an Eagle, joining Embry-Riddle following graduation.
Bree Bunting Bree Bunting 5'8" | CG Platte Valley | 2023 State CO – Platte Valley
Bunting fits like a glove into any halfcourt offense, equally dangerous on or off the ball. The 5’8 guard is a valuable cutter for this group, attacking the rim from backdoor openings with high efficiency. Should opponents attempt to front her down low, Bunting is adept making a spin move to immediately gain position, where she can attack downhill from either direction. An especially intriguing aspect to Bunting’s game is her pull-up shooting ability, a consistent shooter rising up below the free throw line. Through her final season with Platte Valley, Bunting has posted 15.8 points, 2.2 assists, and 2.9 steals per game. Attending Concordia University-Nebraska, Bunting ends her time with Colorado as the 26th ranked prospect.
Andi Schissler Andi Schissler 5'9" | CG Platte Valley | 2023 State CO – Platte Valley
Schissler is another highly impactful senior guard for Platte Valley, providing the bulk of her impact inside the arc. At roughly 5’9, she has been nothing short of steadfast on the defensive side of the floor. Her quick instincts rotating over on defense with high hands allow her to be a highly impactful help defender. Through her season for 17-8 Platte Valley, the guard has posted a diverse resume of 16.8 points, 9.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 2.4 steals, and 1.4 blocks per game. Schissler wll join Casper College in Wyoming, ending her time in Colorado as the class’s 27th overall prospect.
Taryn Kravig Taryn Kravig 5'6" | CG University | 2023 State CO – University
Providing high impact for 24-3 University, Kravig is rarely sped up versus pressure. The 5’6 guard has the ball on a string going either direction, proving adept at getting downhill through crossovers or behind the back dribble moves. Her playmaking awareness is fairly high among guards, rarely frocing passes into crowded lanes. Through her senior season with University, the senior put up 14.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 2.3 steals per game. Landing as the 38th overall prospect in this class, Kravig will follow her high school career at Coe College.
Charlotte Brennan Charlotte Brennan 5'6" | CG Mead | 2023 State CO – Mead
Brennan has been one of the most effective on-ball scorers in the class. The senior combo guard does a phenomenal job getting downhill through simplistic, yet dangerous moves. Through hesitations or in and out dribble moves, Brennan is all to quick for most perimeter defenders. That quickness is valuable while picking up opposing ballhandlers, where she walls off the majority of backcourt opponents.
