She Hoops: Best of the Midwest- Impact Players, Part 1

Reece Hackney Reece Hackney 5'7" | CG Cincinnati Mount Notre Dame | 2027 State OH : 2027, Mount Notre Dame: Keep this young lady on your radar- Hackney has a solid basketball IQ, with the ability to defend just about anyone! I love how alert she plays, runs the floor well, makes smart decisions on transition. Strong shooting range.

Maggie Stephenson Maggie Stephenson 5'6" | PG Waynesville | 2026 OH : 2026, Waynesville: Maggie has some wheels that are just as strong at the end of the game as they are from the start! She’s off to the races on fast breaks, and is so smooth gliding past multiple defenders. Stephenson is a creator, finds the open teammates, and can put up points! And she’ll pick pockets all day long!

Caroline Bayliff Caroline Bayliff 5'8" | CG Lakota West | 2026 State OH : 2026, Lakota West: Bayliff is a spark plug! She plays with zeal, and it shows in her defense, particularly on ball pressure! Offensively she’s just a lethal, in how she dribble pentrates and either scores herself or dishes off. Strong outside shooter! (Below on defense)

Ada Christman Ada Christman 6'0" | SF Patrick Henry | 2026 State OH : 2026, Patrick Henry: This multi-sport athlete that blocks and hits a volleyball with authority has the same tenacity on the basketball court! With her size and length, she does damage everywhere- from grabbing boards, to beautiful footwork on the block and finishing, to knocking down shots from outside. Love her game, and the impact she makes! (Below, shooting) Featured Photo

Katie Fox Katie Fox 5'10" | CG Lakota West | 2026 State OH : 2026, Lakota West: Fox is a talented PG/SG, with athleticism, length, and makes the right decisions with the ball! Plays with composure, knows how to get to the basket and finish with contact, and also stretches the floor with her outside shot! She can score in a lot of different ways. Fox has a high ceiling! (Below with ball)

Tristan Williams: 2026, Laurel: Williams is one tough guard! She has such quick instincts on defense! It’s game over when she steals the ball- an easy bucket. And her outside shooting- wow, lets just say she can comfortably shoot 4-5 feet behind the arc. Impressive all-around game!
