Continue ReadingThe Spring Championship hosted by Sports Academy was one of the tip-off events to the spring travel season. The event was held across two days from May 6-7 and featured some of the top travel teams in Southern California as well as few out of state teams as well. I was able to attend the event on Sunday, May 7 and focused on the in state teams. Here’s a look at some additional standouts I saw.
1.

Why Not Premier
16U EYBL/Bishop Montgomery 2025
Blackmon stood out to me as a player who can get a lot of scoring opportunities off the ball. She was particularly good at shooting the corner three-pointer with consistency off the catch. She spots up well and has a quick release. She can also fake the shot on closeouts and put the ball on the floor. Able to shoot the midrange pull-up. Good length for a wing with the tools be solid defensively.
2.
Emily Eadie

Why Not Premier
17U EYBL/Sage Hill 2024
Eadie stood out as one of the top interior players at the event. She is active in the paint on both ends of the court with good size. On the offensive end, she is efficient in the paint with a nice touch around the basket. On the defensive end, she’s very active challenging shots around the basket and acting as a rim protector. Moves well and can cover ground defensively.
3.
Kaeli Wynn

Wynn

Mater Dei | 2026
State
CA
– Sports Academy Swish 16U Derek Fisher/Mater Dei 2026
Wynn is a strong interior player with good size. She can take advantage of smaller players in the paint. She can be an efficient scorer around the basket. She’s a good rebounder especially on the offensive end keeping possessions alive and getting put back opportunities. Boxes out well and rebounds with two hands. In the halfcourt, she has a little pull-up jumper.
4. Sheana Brew –
Why Not Premier
16U EYBL/Etiwanda 2025
Brew is a strong guard with a good combination of strength and skill. She uses her strength well to attack the basket and muscle her way into the lane. She uses her strength and body control to be able to finish through contact at the rim. She’s also able to step out and shoot the three off catch and shoot. Squares up well on her shot. Good ball-handler too.
