Ava Miles Ava Miles 6'0" | SG Staley | 2026 State MO (Staley): The 6’0″ guard was the top prospect that I saw at the event. She did everything from facilitate offense from the point to getting buckets to clamping down on defense at multiple positions. She can see over the defense with her height to make the pinpoint pass and she also has a nice mid-range jumper with good elevation. She can also grab the rebound and take off to lead the break. She has already received several Division I scholarship offers.
******
Kumani Clark Kumani Clark 6'2" | C Battle | 2026 State MO (Battle): A 6’2″ power forward who has the size and strength to be a force around the basket, which she did during certain stretches of the day. She has a nice touch around the basket and she was moving people around the lane like furniture. She has good mobility and will run the court. She also has a strong presence on the defensive end with her positioning and ability to block shots.
******
Addison Carr Addison Carr 6'6" | C Hickman | 2026 State MO (California): The 6’5″ center played a tremendous game in her team’s victory over Cardinal Ritter. She was very assertive at both ends of the floor. She sealed defenders well and she really finished around the basket. She did a nice job of with her ball fakes inside to give a clear look and she finished off the backboard very well. She held her position well on the defensive end and even blocked two or three shots.
******
Londyn Parker Londyn Parker 5'9" | PG Staley | 2026 State MO (Staley): A 5’9″point guard who has a good blend of physical strength and quickness, which makes her difficult to guard in the open court. The young lefty can touch the paint on dribble penetration on a regular basis. She can finish in the lane or drop off the dime to the open teammate. She is also a very tenacious defender who can be very disruptive with on-ball pressure and deflections.
******
Kylee Reiter Kylee Reiter 5'10" | SF St Joseph's Academy | 2026 State MO (St. Joseph’s): A 5’10” combo forward who has a nice offensive skill set that fits within the team concept. She can help with the ball handling and can step outside to hit the 3-pointer off the pick and pop. She was also effective on the drive from the top of the key with the ability to finish.
******
Karagyn Cooper Karagyn Cooper 5'7" | SG Boonville | 2026 State MO (Boonville): A 5’7″ guard who was one of the top perimeter shooters that I watched at the event. She was rather unassuming until she started knocking down one 3-pointer after another with excellent range. She plays well off the ball with her good movement.
******
Alanah Howard Alanah Howard 5'6" | PG Cardinal Ritter | 2026 State MO (Cardinal Ritter): A 5’6″ point guard who can impact the game at both ends with her speed and quickness. She has excellent playmaking skills as a passer and ball handler. She can also score off the dribble well, but she is at her best when she is creating good shots for her teammates, which she does in a very unselfish manner.
******
Jaela Nickerson (Jefferson City): A young wing player who displayed an impressive shooting stroke in the one game that I watched her. She had good form on her shot and she was ready on the catch. She is also a solid ball handler.
