This weekend, Sports Academy in Thousand Oaks played host to the Summer Championship featuring some of the local travel teams. The event was held from June 24-25. I was able to attend the event on Sunday June 25 and here's a look at some of the top standouts that I saw. 1. [player_tooltip player_id='644216' first='Delaney' last='White'] - Triple Threat/Oak Park 2026 When I've seen White play before, she's been the primary ball-handler and playmaker but this time I got to see her in more of an off-ball role. She did well moving around the perimeter and freeing herself up for jumpers. Tracks misses and can hit the glass well for a guard. Consistently able to knock down the catch and shoot three. Very unselfish and always looking to make the extra pass. Able to dribble under defensive pressure. 2. Jayda Cordon - West Coast Dream 2026 Cordon was able to play both on ball and off ball. She's more of a two guard with good size and handles. She was comfortable with the ball in her hands in the halfcourt and directing plays. Able to shoot the dribble pull-up. She pushes the ball in transition and is able to create her own shot. Consistent three-point range and catch shoot off the catch or with the defense in space. 3. [player_tooltip player_id='763614' first='Helena' last='Koubek'] - Triple Threat/Oak Park 2026 Koubek is a lights-out shooter when she gets open. In the game I saw, most of her scoring opportunities came from off-ball movement. Floats to the corners and will consistently hit the catch and shoot three. She has a quick release and squares up well to the basket with her shot. She's a forward who can handle the ball. Can use shot fakes to get closer to the basket and hit the midrange. 4. [player_tooltip player_id='756887' first='Savannah' last='Rowland'] - Burroughs(Ridgecrest) 2024 Rowland was a solid point guard and ball-handler. She pushes the pace in transition and does a good job keeping her head up and reading the defense. Able to attack downhill and draw contact at the basket to get to the free-throw line. Very unselfish, past first point guard who looks to keep the ball moving and make the extra pass. Good vision in halfcourt to find the open teammate.
