<p>This morning I woke up with a craving for pancakes and basketball highlights.</p>

<p>After crushing a stack of cakes (chocolate-chip pancakes to be specific), I spent an hour watching Hudl film packages of Kansas players ranked in the Class of 2025 by Prep Girls Hoops.</p>

<p>Here are four prospects coming off solid sophomore seasons and still have two years of high school ball remaining in which to improve their skills and recruiting value.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='649171' first='Charley' last='Baxter']</strong>, SG, 5'8”, Buhler</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Baxter is a player who can fit in to lineup at multiple positions. She has a sweet jump shot and can score from deep. She has solid size and is not afraid to go down in the paint to score. The Buhler prospect is dangerous as a half-court scorer who creates match-up problems. Baxter is currently ranked No. 101 in the Class of 2025 by PGH Hoops Kansas.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='616757' first='Laynie' last='Winfrey']</strong>, SG, 5'11”, Bishop Carroll</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Winfrey is a physical prospect from Bishop Carroll. She is a three-level scorer, but her strength is as a defender. She has quick feet and a big reach. She can play at the bottom of a zone or is solid in man-to-man due to her physicality. The Bishop Carroll prospect plays club ball for [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse']. Winfrey is currently ranked No. 105 by PGH.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='675830' first='Kaia' last='Smith']</strong>, SF, 6'1”, Hutchinson</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I really like this Salthawk prospect. She is long and lanky. Smith has a smooth jump shot and can be a beast on defense. Her height and wing span makes her a solid college prospect. Smith is currently ranked No. 107 in the Class of 2025.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='688270' first='Maliyah' last='Lansang']</strong>, CG, 5'6”, Derby</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>PGH Kansas currently has Derby prospect Lansang ranked No. 111 in the Class of 2025. She is a tenacious defender for the Panthers. She has a big reach, quick feet, and fights for loose balls. She scores best when she can get out in transition. She is a real force when Derby used full-court defensive pressure.</p>
