As the years go by and the list continues to grow, we here at PGH Tennessee will continue to do our due diligence in seeking out and finding talent within these borders. The class of 2026 has some solid standouts who will play intricate roles for their clubs for years to come. These girls are carving out their niche, finding ways to help their club win ball games in more ways than one. Right now they may have a particular role, but eventually, all the little things they are currently adding to their tool belts, will help elevate them into stars for their prospective schools.
Here are some new additions to the ‘26 rankings. Keep an eye on these girls as they continue to battle, do work, and keep getting better for years to come.
Sania Reaves Sania Reaves 5'11" | PF Gibson Co. | 2026 State TN (5’11/PF/ Gibson Co.)- Big working post who does the little things right. Solid in her skill set, she was a great addition to a standout Gibson Co. team. Grabbing boards, diving for loose balls, blocking shots, and finding ways to end up in the scoring column, her energy and effort that she brought was the momentum that her club needed nightly. She always found a way to arrive on time and get the job done every time she stepped on the court. Bright future for this young lady. She will be a name to remember for years to come.
Samiyah Jones Samiyah Jones 6'2" | PF Bartlett | 2026 State TN (6’2/PF/ Bartlett)– In limited minutes, found ways to make an impact on the game. Huge in the painted area, she’s relentless when it comes to scoring high percentage shots. She’s a board collector on both ends of the floor. Uses her size and length to deter shots, sending them back the other way. Gets up and down the floor well. Phenomenal in the pick n’ roll game. Played behind an exceptional talent in Mallor Collier. Samiyah may have some big shoes to fill, but she will definitely be ready as she gears up to build upon a solid foundation that has already been laid.
Aaliyah Story Aaliyah Story 6'0" | C David Crockett | 2026 State TN (6’0/C/Stratford)– Big anchor of a post in the middle for the Lady Spartans. Was a beast working around the blocks. Put backs, back to the basket moves, mid-range shots, Aaliyah was doing work offensively. Defensively, she used that wingspan to her advantage. Blocking shots, grabbing boards, clogging up passing lanes. Super tough kid who is going to be special the more she continues to play.
Kennedy Thronton (5’8/SG/Overton)– Shifty guard who gets down hill. Has a nice pull up game that compliments her ability to get to the rim. She gets after it on both ends of the floor. From poking balls away to jumping passes leading towards transition buckets, she’s fun to watch every time she steps on the floor. Smooth with the ball in her hands, this young hooper brings something special to a Lady Bobcat program looking to take the next steps.

(5’8/SG/Father Ryan)– solid player who just gets after it. Incredible work ethic. You can tell she is having fun when she is other. A 3 level scoring threat who just loves to compete. Can shoot the rock like nobody’s business with ease, or get to the rim and finish against contact. Contributes on the boards and can make timely assists to open teammates. Has a keen understanding of the game as well as pace and space. Knows when to attack or kick it to open teammates. Game will continue to grow as she continues to thrive in a tough Lady Fighting Irish program.
