Clare Williams Clare Williams 5'7" | CG Palmyra | 2025 State MO (Palmyra): The 5’8″ 2025 point guard had an impressive showing at the camp as she displayed excellent playmaking and scoring ability throughout the two days. She was touching the paint on slicing drives and hitting the short jumper or floater while also dropping the dime to an open teammate when she drew the defense. She also had the 3-point shot working and she was knocking shots down from long distance. She was also grabbing rebounds and going coast to coast for layups.
******
Ava Schlotzhauer Ava Schlotzhauer 5'10" | PF Tipton | 2026 State MO (Tipton): The 5’10” 2026 forward was one of the top frontcourt players at the camp. She was undoubtedly the best rebounder that I watched over the two days. She was very active on the boards as she established good position and also got out of her area. In one game I watched, she had close to 15 rebounds in the first half. She is also a very strong post player inside who was tough to stop when she got to her left hand on the turn. Her drop step was effective and she also was very good on the drive from the high post for a bucket. She is ready to step into a prime role for a Lady Cardinals team that is coming off a Class 2 state championship run.
******
Enzley Dinkins Enzley Dinkins 5'7" | CG South Iron | 2024 State MO (South Iron): A 5’7″ 2024 guard who is a good athlete who plays the game at a very good pace with the ball in her hands. She gets into the lane effectively and she can play very well off of two feet for good balance. She also has a nice spin move off the dribble and she can create shots in the lane at different angles. She’s a very resourceful offensive player who can also make runners and floaters. She will also kick the ball out to the open shooter.
******
Kierstyn Lawson Kierstyn Lawson 5'4" | PG California | 2025 State MO (California): A 2025 point guard who was one of the fastest players that we saw at the camp. She used her great speed in the open court to push the ball and get her team the advantage in transition at every opportunity. She dropped several nice dimes while on the move, which led to easy layups. She also has a nice change of pace to compliment her speed with a good hesitation move to keep defenders off balance. She’s an excellent point guard who can lead a team.
******
Kinsey Barton Kinsey Barton 5'10" | SG Bunker | 2026 State MO (Bunker): A 5’9″ 2026 guard who could impact the game at both ends of the game with her combination of length and athleticism. In the first game I watched her team play, she jumped the passing lane for a steal and a transition layup. She displayed good defensive instincts and anticipation to get deflections. She also passes and handles the ball well and she was able to get into the lane, where she could finish with a variety of shots that included runners and scoop shots. She can also knock down the open 3-pointer.
******
Kiersten Powell (Marquette): A 5’7″ 2024 guard who was very effective when she was in attack mode. She did a nice job on the drive whether she was going with the left hand or right hand. She could go straight line or she could use a nice hesi move to free the defender on her way into the lane. She could also stop and pop and hit the short jumper off the dribble.
******
Tyler Griffin (Normandy): A 2025 guard who has good speed and athleticism, which served well on the defensive end. She did a good job of providing very effective on-ball defensive pressure on opposing ball handlers. She was also a very good passer. Even when she was on the move, she was able to deliver some very nice dimes through tight quarters to teammates for layups. She also had a quick first step to get to the basket.
******
Addison Gibbs (Fayette): A 2027 point guard who was the youngest player in the camp, but she did a good job of holding her own. She did a good job on the defensive end as she moved her feet very well. Her instincts were also very good defensively as she always had herself in a position to provide help. She also handled the ball well and hit the open 3-pointer.
