Sumner
Sumner has a tremendous backcourt, highlighted by point guard and senior to be Lainee Houillon Lainee Houillon 5'7" | PG Sumner | 2024 State WA and 2026 Olivia Collins Olivia Collins 5'9" | CG Sumner | 2026 State WA .
She is the leader that makes Sumner go. She is a fiercely competitive player who gets after it for a full 32 minutes on both ends of the floor. She plays at a terrific pace and pushes continously, putting pressure on the defense. She has great downhill speed and quickness. She does a lot of damage getting to the rim but has a nice mid-range game and can shoot better than most. She will normally make a living at the free throw line with her attacking style. She will also cause problems with her on ball pressure defense. She is primed for a big season next year.
Olivia is a guard who can get you baskets from the outside with her great three point shooting, or inside with her strength. She is a strong guard who can bully her way into the paint for baskets and crash the offensive boards for easy put backs. She is also very skilled and has good athleticism, which is why she is one of the best guards in the class of 2026 and a rankings riser.
