Macey Fothergill Macey Fothergill 5'6" | PG Falcon | 2025 State CO – Falcon
Fothergill brings value as a lead guard for Falcon, setting up the halfcourt offense while controlling the pace when available. The 2025 backcourt athlete competes on every possession, staying low at the point of attack while matching up against opposing playmakers. Previously with Falcon, Fothergill put up 6.5 points and 3.5 rebounds per game. Her continued progression as a perimeter shotmaker will play a key role in Falcon’s spacing, following the departure of their two leading three point shooters.
Quin Lewis Quin Lewis 5'1" | CG Fountain Valley Of Colorado | 2025 State CO – Fountain Valley School
Lewis is a capable playmaker along the perimeter, effective as a ball handler and decisionmaker against pressure. The guard is consistent, keeping her eyes up at all times for passing opportunities, repeatedly finding the open shotmaker. Lewis shows potential as a perimeter shooter, most effective on spot-up attempts with space. She is most consistent from the mid-range, capable of rising up into the shot off a dribble or from a standstill. Through her previous season with Fountain Valley, the lead guard posted 10.4 points, 3 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game. The guard will be taking on a larger role this season, following multiple departures of seniors.
Brooklyn Robbins Brooklyn Robbins 5'7" | CG Lamar | 2025 State CO – Lamar
Robbins has been a capable shotmaker within the offensive flow, effective at rising up into shots off the catch. The guard is always moving around, boasting a notably high motor. Especially productive at grabbing rebounds on either end of the floor, Robbins previously led Lamar in rebounds per game, at 8.8. Excellent at creating second chance opportunities, Robbins was no small part to Lamar’s 20-5 success.
Cierra Barbary – Falcon
Barbary brings consistent hustle for Falcon, aiding the team with plenty of second chance opportunities. The guard has provided impact through her hustle and high motor, getting into the paint early to create rebounding opportunities and shot attempts for teammates. Throughout Barbary’s sophomore season at Falcon, the guard posted 4.5 points and 3.8 rebounds per game. Her high motor has been especially productive for the 19-6 group, likely taking on a larger role throughout this upcoming season. Another area of intrigue will be how often she takes on key defensive roles, providing quick lateral movement and defensive instincts.
Nadia Turnipseed Nadia Turnipseed 5'7" | CG Harrison | 2025 State CO – Harrison
Turnipseed has been a notable piece with Harrison, capable of facilitating and knocking down shots from all over. The guard shows value with her shooting ability off the catch, fairly consistently stepping into the jumper when provided the space. Turnipseed will be a necessary perimeter playmaker for this group, possessing plenty of gravity along the perimeter as is. Her continued progression as playmaker while attacking the paint will be an area to keep tabs on. Through her previous season with Lamar, Turnipseed put up 8.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 4.7 rebounds per game.
