Avery Harrison Avery Harrison 5'10" | SF Arvada West | 2025 State CO – Arvada West
Harrison is an intriguing forward who is dependable scoring around the rim along with upside as a two-way rebounder. The incoming junior was effective this past season with Arvada West, posting 5.5 points and 4 rebounds per game. Harrison is not afraid of getting up shots past a contest around the rim, most consistent with her right hand. She possesses good size to match up 2 through 4, allowing notable defensive versatility down the line. Harrison looks to continue her growth anchoring the defensive end, while grabbing enough offensive rebounds for second chance opportunities.
Riley Hunt Riley Hunt 6'0" | C Wiggins | 2025 State CO – Wiggins
Hunt embraces the fundamentals on the defensive end, finding ways to front the post and seeking a box out on every shot attempt. At roughly 5’9, the forward put up well rounded numbers for Wiggins this past season, posting 8.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game. Offensively, Hunt is active without the ball, maneuvering around into open space before attacking downhill, effectively putting pressure on the defense. Another area worth noting is her activity with her arms, consistently keeping both arms high for contests or to deter passing lanes.
Brooke Harding Brooke Harding 5'10" | SG Rock Canyon | 2025 State CO – Rock Canyon
Harding is an intriguing 5’10 wing scorer who is especially potent as a shooter in the mid-range. The incoming junior has shown value stepping into pull-up jumpers right around the free throw line, boasting ample confidence in those shot attempts. Another aspect of Harding’s game is her off-ball movement, rarely staying in place following a pass. When attacking the rim, she has no fear going into contact, finishing with the right hand around contests on multiple occasions. Through her sophomore season with Rock Canyon, Harding put up 7.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2.3 steals per game. Although an excellent scorer, she is much more diverse than just that. She looks to push the pace in transition, often seeking outlet passes to wing and corner shooters. Her continued growth as a spot-up shooter from beyond the arc will be intriguing, given her moldable baseline as a shooter just a few feet inside the arc.
Jazlynn O’Roy Jazlynn O’Roy 5'10" | PF George Washington | 2025 CO – George Washington
O’Roy is a rangy defender who brings value in a variety of areas on that end of the floor. At roughly 5’11, she possesses a unique combination of strength and mobility, allowing her to deter a wide variety of opponents. Capable matching up with opposing 3s and 4s, she does an effective job contesting shots with either hand inside or outside the arc. On the offensive end, O’Roy finds ways to facilitate, pushing the extra pass for shooters once the defense begins to collapse. Through her sophomore season at George Washington, O’Roy put up 3.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1 block per game.
