Mariyah Mayfield (Hannibal): A 5’7″ 2025 guard who was one of the smoothest offensive players at the showcase. The young lefty has a nice shooting stroke from 3-point range and she also has the handles to create her own shot off the dribble. She can move without the ball well to get to the open spots. She can also set up her defenders with a nice change of pace and a variety of escape moves to knock down perimeter jumpers off the bounce.

Abby Molloy Abby Molloy 5'6" | SG South Harrison | 2025 State MO (South Harrison): A 5’6″ 2025 guard from Northwest Missouri who was very impressive at both ends of the court. She was scoring on slicing drives to the basket. She was patient as she was probed the defense for openings before making her move. She can also change directions and play through contact. She can also create off the dribble with a nice step-back jumper from the perimeter. I also liked how she looked to consistently box out players for rebounding position.
******
Taytum White (Palmyra): A 5’8″ 2025 guard who has good length and nice moves off the dribble. She can maneuver around the basket very well with her footwork and a nice up-and-under move. She was also very effective as slicing in the lane for buckets off the dribble. She is a very unselfish player who delivered some nice passes off the dribble to open teammates.

Oakleigh Hill Oakleigh Hill 6'0" | SF Fayette | 2025 State MO (Harrisburg): A 6’0″ 2025 wing with good height and excellent mobility as she ran the court with ease in the transition game. She can operate on the high post very well as she flashed to the ball and could turn and face. She could hit the jumper or put the ball on the floor and get to the basket. She can also step out and make the 3-pointer. She also used her length to grab offensive rebounds and get putbacks.
******
Isabel Benke Isabel Benke 5'5" | PG Warrenton | 2024 State MO (Warrenton): A 5’5″ 2024 point guard who was a real asset on the defensive end with her good instincts. She had quick reactions and anticipation to get steals and deflections. She also did a good job of talking and directing traffic. On offense, she was good on dribble penetration to score on runners in the lane. She could also knock down open 3-pointers.
******
Reagan Arrowood (South Callaway): A 5’9″ 2025 guard who I was impressed with when I first saw her at the Ladybird Shootout at South Shelby a couple of weeks ago. The young lady is a bucket who knows how to play the game at her own pace without being sped up. She can knock down shots from well beyond the 3-point line. She can also attack the close outs and create her own shot off the dribble. Her physical strength and good handles enable her to get to her spots and make a shot.
******
Penelope Cotton Penelope Cotton 5'9" | SG California | 2024 State MO (California): A 5’7″ 2024 guard who displayed good court vision with her excellent passing skills. She was also looking to advance the ball on the pass and on the dribble. She was also aggressive when she attack the basket and she had the ability to score in the lane with either hand. She could also rebound effectively as she pursued the ball out of her area very well.
******
Brynn Wright (Owensville): A 5’7″ 2025 guard who was determined in her downhill drives to the basket. She used good ball fakes to set up her defenders before making her moves. She loves to draw contact and get herself to the free throw line. Her spin move in the lane was also very good. She could also get buckets on offensive putbacks inside. She also could hit the pull up 3-pointer in transition.
