<p>[player_tooltip player_id='777634' first='Sway' last='Jones'] (Battle): The 5'9 guard was listed among our GameChangers from the event after displaying her smooth perimeter shooting stroke. She is an excellent shot maker off the catch who can also create off the dribble. She was also reading defenses well and moving without the ball to find openings.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='777610' first='Cara' last='Manuel'] (Lift for Life): A 5'7 point guard who can distribute the ball and score. She is very aggressive when attacking the basket to score inside amongst the taller players. She is also a strong rebounder. She also creates her own offense off the dribble to hit the jumper.</p>

<p>Izzy Miller (Jefferson City): A 5'11 forward from the Mid Missouri area who was one of the few elite 2028 prospects who attended the event. She handles the ball well and is very comfortable as a playmaker on the perimeter. She drives the ball well and can hit the runner in the lane. She is also a versatile defender who can guard multiple positions.</p>

<p>Sophie Shapiro (Edwardsville, IL): A 5'6 point guard who is a very talented floor leader. She runs a nice pick and roll as she was making the pocket pass to the roller or hitting the 3-pointer off the high ball screen. She accelerated with a good speed dribble in the open court on the break. She keeps her head on a swivel as she dropped a number on nice dimes.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='777628' first='Peyton' last='Roberts'] (St Dominic): A 5'7 guard who is an excellent slashing threat who had several creative finishes on reverses layups with both hands. She is an unselfish player who willingly makes the extra pass. She was also active on defense in playing the passing lanes.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='777635' first='Taylor' last='Scheer'] (Borgia): A 5'9 guard who has good athleticism and versatility. She threw a nice long lead pass on the break that was accurate. She can hit the open 3-pointer, then use a good shot fake to drive the ball effectively. She was also very active on the boards and on the defensive end.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='777629' first='Piper' last='Wilmot'] (Lindbergh): A 5'7 guard who played very well without commanding a lot of touches on offense. She's a willing passer and the ball never sticks in her hand. She is also a very good screener who was willing to get her teammates open in an unselfish manner.<br></p>
