We’ve seen nearly 20 different players receive offers, tour colleges or announce commitments for the future basketball careers. This article will start with some recent commitments in the Garden State.
Kaci Mikulski Kaci Mikulski 5'8" | CG Wildwood Catholic Academy | 2024 State NJ – Wildwood Catholic (2024) commits to Jefferson
The most recent player to commit in the Garden State happened on Thursday with Wildwood Catholic rising senior Kaci Mikulski Kaci Mikulski 5'8" | CG Wildwood Catholic Academy | 2024 State NJ , who committed to Jefferson.
The growth that we’ve seen from her in recent years has truly been tremendous, and it’s shown in her production with the Crusaders, averaging a career-high 14.7 PPG, 3.6 RPG and 2.4 made three-pointers a game last season. She’s a prolific shooter in New Jersey, easily one of the best we’ve seen from South Jersey in particular, and we can’t wait to see her continue that at the next level.
Siobhan Stapleton Siobhan Stapleton 6'0" | C Trinity Hall | 2024 State NJ – Trinity Hall (2024) commits to Tufts
From Wildwood Catholic, we head over to Trinity Hall, where rising senior Siobhan Stapleton Siobhan Stapleton 6'0" | C Trinity Hall | 2024 State NJ announced her verbal commitment to Tufts on Monday.
Stapleton has been a jack of all trades for Trinity Hall, a well-balanced player all-around with great production numbers. Last season, she averaged 5.7 PPG, 8.2 RPG, 3.9 APG, 2.1 SPG, 1.1 BPG and 1.2 made three-pointers a game. That includes setting career-highs in rebounding, assists, steals and three-point shooting. She can do it all and then some.
Brenae Jones Brenae Jones 6'1" | C Montclair Immaculate | 2024 State NJ – Immaculate Conception (2024) commits to Cleveland State
Time to switch over to Immaculate Conception – Montclair and rising senior Brenae Jones Brenae Jones 6'1" | C Montclair Immaculate | 2024 State NJ , who announced her verbal commitment to Cleveland State on Sunday.
Her first season with IC Montclair last season was a memorable one, averaging 9.9 PPG, 7.2 RPG, nearly an assist a game, 1.4 BPG and 2.4 SPG in 27 games played. Competition definitely was turned up a notch, and she rose to the occasion and to the competition level. Her senior season has all-conference honors written all over it.
Joi Johnson Joi Johnson 5'11" | PF Ewing | 2024 State NJ – Ewing (2024) commits to Fairleigh Dickinson
Johnson has seemingly been a long-awaited person for her future in basketball, and we got that answer on Aug. 11 as she verbally committed to Fairleigh Dickinson.
Johnson, part of Ewing’s three-headed monster in the class of 2024, now can look forward to what we hope will be even more success at the next level. She won’t have to travel far to go to FDU while still being able to play at a Division I level. What we’re looking for the most for next season is if she can finish with double-double averages for the second time in high school.
