<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wichita's I-35 Showcase is this upcoming Sunday, September 17. Following on some <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2023/08/guard-previews-wichita-i-35-showcase/">guard</a> previews here is a look at a gaggle of forwards, arranged by class, expected to attend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">2024</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='300806' first='Easha' last='Potts'], 5'10", PF, Dodge City, 2024 - The Western Activities Conference second team selection really came into her own last season and this past summer all she has done is grow in game maturity. A pure, strong power forward Potts has good hands and footwork. Her edge against opponents not comes not just from her skill set and strength but also her hustle and consistent transition ability. Scary thing is she has a high ceiling of potential. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='396069' first='Aja' last='Spencer'], 5'11", SF, Remington, 2024 - Spencer has grown substantially in confidence and assertiveness heading into her senior season and those qualities may make the difference in whether the Broncos reach the 2A state tournament.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">2025</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='350256' first='Avery' last='Stindt'], 5'9", SF/PF, Republic County, 2025 - The North Central Activities Association honorable mention selection is a regarded as a solid player with good quickness and game IQ. Finishes well with either hand. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='349795' first='Paige' last='Corter'], 5'8", SF, Flinthills, 2025 - The South Central Border League first team and Varsity Kansas 1A Division I honorable mention selection generally plays the power forward spot but I more see her playing a 3/4 role at the collegiate level due to height. For her height she has good length, has solid footwork and competes well on the boards. A good garbage collector on the offensive glass Corter also will pop the three ball. Having put in a substantial amount of play with Kim Carbonell's [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] squad all summer I really look forward to seeing how much of a problem she presents for opponents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":472838,"width":104,"height":93,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2022/08/Tayten-Dewey-2025-Rawlins-County-Magic-Basketball.jpg?w=447" alt="" class="wp-image-472838" style="width:104px;height:93px" width="104" height="93" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Rawlins County 2025 [player_tooltip player_id='456514' first='Tayten' last='Dewey'].

A top player for [program_tooltip program_id='715500' first='Magic' last='Basketball'] during the season Dewey is solid, athletic player with good length. With good timing on her hops she is a good rebounder on both ends, transition speed, and consistent defender. She averaged 11.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists (1.2 assists-to-turnovers ratio), 2.9 steals, and 1 block per game She also shot 34% from beyond the arc with 40 made and 64% from the line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='675832' first='Anna' last='Duncan'], 5'11", SF, Valley Center, 2025 - After a strong summer of club ball Duncan has polished her game to a point where she can be expected to content for Ark Valley Chisholm Trail League Division II honors in 2024. Blessed with a great wing span she runs the floor well and is a solid interior passer. Duncan has a diverse offensive game and has grown in physicality defensively. She has real potential to be a terrific shot blocker. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">2026</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='621237' first='Justine' last='Berlin'], 6'0", PF/SF, Clearwater, 2026 - Running with Evan McCorry's [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] squad the past two summers Berlin, a freshman starter at Clearwater last season, has great length, terrific speed, and solid understanding of transition basketball. Unafraid to bang inside Berlin is among the top young shot blockers in the state. Berlin earned Arkansas Valley Chisholm Trail League Division IV honorable mention honors in 2023.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='544027' first='Avery' last='Scott'], 6'1", PF, Stanton County, 2026 - The top ranked 2A player , and just outside the top ten overall, in the class Scott is a dominant post with great size and length. Playing with Gameball Fusion the past two seasons she carves space in the lane, rebounds it, and scores well around the rim. She also changes ends very well - which really puts pressure on defenders. A walking double-double, Scott averaged 13.2 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 3.4 rebounds per game. A first team Hi-Plains selection she also earned KBCA and Varsity Kansas 2A honorable mention honors in 2023.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
