Powerful guard that showed no fear when attacking the basket. I like how she finished through contact for the “and one” with a nice power move against a bigger player.
Very aggressive scorer with a lot of versatility to her game. She gets right up the court and puts pressure on the defense by getting into the paint consistently. Has a knack for finishing at awkward angles and avoiding contact. If the lane isn’t open she will pull up and knock down a three. She plays some defense too, using her speed and footwork to thwart ball handlers.
Natalya is a nifty guard with some size and good court vision. She has a nice package of runners, and I like how she can also play off two feet. She made some contested shots that were really impressive.
Highlights
One of the better ball handlers in the event. Very adept at creating space off the bounce, and she made some nice step-back threes. She looks like a natural lead guard.
Hailey was one of the best shooters in the gym. Every time I looked up, she was draining a three. She’s also a very good defender, on ball and in team defense. She has quick hands and a knack for coming up with fingertip blocks and steals. Very good performance for her.
Ava Andersen

Ava is highly skilled and showed off the ability to make all types of shots. She’s crafty and has a great feel for the game. Looking forward to seeing her during the high school season.

Aniyah was probably the best athlete in the gym. She made some spectacular moves and played with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. She has tremendous potential if she keeps improving her skills.
Tierney Myers

Tierney was excellent on both ends of the floor. She’s a good defender and she competed hard all day. She was good in catch and shoot situations, and she used good footwork to get her shots off in the paint.
