Tournament of Champions: Players to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Tournament of Champions was hosted by the RV Heat organization and featured teams in 5th-high school. Players played hard and really got after it. This article will highlight some players who I got to see for the first time. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Damya Wilson | Guard | JB Ballers</strong> <strong>| 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Damya is a dynamic player that plays with an unshakable level of confidence. She's developed a shifty handle that allows her to get downhill and into the heart of the defense for the finish. She is also a handful in transition. Once she gets going downhill she knows how to use her body on the finish. Damya also has te ability to connect from the three-point line. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='876329' first='Madison' last='Glaspie'] | Guard | JB Ballers | 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Madison is a no nonsense player that's about her business on the court. The shifty lefty has a nice dribble package that she uses to get in the lane and make plays. Madison is a good athlete that shows off her athleticism with her creative finishes, on ball defense, anticipation in the passing lanes, and her open court speed and quickness. She also showed the ability connect on the three off the catch or the dribble. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1049429' first='Madison' last='Davidson'] | Post | Hustlerz | 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Madison is a promising athlete with a solid foundation of skills. She did a good job of establishing low post position by getting big with a wide base and showing a target hand for the passer. Once she catches the ball, she proved she can be a threat to score with nice turn around jumper. She also secured offensive rebounds for easy put backs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1251579' first='Olivia' last='Pelfrey'] | Wing | RV Heat | 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Olivia was an aggressive downhill attacker. When she caught the ball on the perimeter she looked to make plays off the dribble quickly before the defense could rotate to their help position. She pushed the ball well in transition and kept the defense on their heels. She was able to go over or around defenders for the finish at the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1180773' first='Ella' last='Tolley'] | Forward | Swaggin Dragons | 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ella is a versatile forward that can play on the low block, operate out of the high post, or function on the perimeter. She plays with a good IQ and never seems to rush or play out of control. When on the perimeter she can attack off the catch and get to the rim for the finish. She also runs the floor well and is a good rebounder. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
