Congratulations to each of the 15U first team all-tournament team selections listed below.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>First Team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='621240' first='Liza' last='Dugan'], PG, Bishop Carroll (KS), [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] 2026 McCorry, - NLE was excellent getting into a early offense off defensive rebounds and made shots. While she played a bunch at point Dugan often turned the last pass down the floor into a three point basket. She would also make an extra pass to hit a teammate diving to the basket for a layup. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='621237' first='Justine' last='Berlin'], 6'1", PF, Clearwater (KS), [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] 2026 McCorry, 2026 - Berlin does not have a big frame but she is a menace on both ends of the floor. She tracks the ball well and is a multi-threat within 10' of the basket. Meaning, she will use the bounce to take a defender to the hole; shoot the jumper; pass and dive; attack and pass out; and etc. Defenders have to be able to defend all of it. Berlin runs the floor extremely well. She also defends well in transition and in the half court. Her ability to set up a variety of shot blocks without fouling is a really good skill. And yes she can finish with both hands and keeps the ball high off rebounds.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='544006' first='Lexi' last='Cooley'], 5'5", PG, Olathe West (KS), [program_tooltip program_id='715643' first='Kansas' last='Elite'] 2026 Red, 2026 - Cooley is blessed with good speed and quickness on both ends. And whether with the dribble or pass she pushes the ball down fast. In transition she also catches on the fly and spots well too. And with her perimeter shooting ability teams knew they had to sprint back. In the half court offense Cooley showed an ability to beat defenders off the bounce from a variety of areas, including baseline, to finish using the glass well or to get an assist with an interior look. She also could lock up ball handlers with lateral abilities. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":633044,"width":106,"height":106,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/04/Rylee-Beaver-2026-Staley-Flash-KC-2026.jpg?w=425" alt="" class="wp-image-633044" width="106" height="106" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Staley 2026 Rylee Beaver.

While she could create and move well into space in the half court Ayers will need to get quicker to be able to keep stronger ball handlers in front of her. Athletic with a quick release, Ayers hung multiple threes on a couple teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Rylee Beaver</strong>, 5'5", SG, Staley (MO), [program_tooltip program_id='713359' first='Flash' last='KC'] 2026, 2026 - Beaver showed an ability to catch and finish on a dive to the block as well as out her block game. I really like her perimeter shot. she has a good release. With her sizeable arch she plays a very soft shot. Beaver also showed a good ability to work in the paint to create a shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
