The event was hosted in Charlotte, North Carolina, and athletes from the hoop state were definitely making their names known. Let’s take a look at Part I of the NC standouts from the event.
Jaidiah Blake Jaidiah Blake 5'9" | PG Terry Sanford | 2027 State NC – 5’8” 2027
Blake had a nice move to the hoop attacking the lane and putting up her shot in the paint finishing through contact for the old fashioned three point play. She was definitely one of the most shifty ball handlers at the event controlling the tempo and attacking the gaps on offense. She was effective getting space to show off her shot on the dribble. She did a nice job getting back on defense being ready to deflect passes up the court.
Courtney Ashford – 5’2” 2027
Ashford was showing such strong defense whether she was on the ball stripping it away from her opponents or she was knocking away passes. She sees the floor well finding her open teammates up the court for fast breaks. Her between the legs dribbles are so lethal creating space for her to go to work.
Gabriella Willis – 5’2” 2028
Willis showed off her range shooting the ball increasing the tempo for her team as they pushed the ball up the court. She was consistently one of the first ones back on defense, and she used this position to get inside for rebounds. She served as her own outlet pass being ready to push the ball up the court.
Aliyah Flittner – 5’5” 2028
Flittner had some nice passes hitting her teammates in stride whether she was making a long pass up the court or dropping the pass down into the paint from the top of the key. She did a nice job attacking the paint to score her own points using fakes along the way to lose her defenders.
Makenzie Gonder – 5’3” 2029
Gonder used a nice shot fake to attack the basket finding the lane and filling it finishing with two points. She found her open teammates easily keeping her eyes up as she dribbled the ball up the court. She was weaving in and out of her opponents running full speed with the ball to get to the rim.
