5 Players to Watch
Player of the Year in the conference back-to-back years and District POY. Kendall is an outstanding shooter and Univ. of Toledo commit. Bigtime scorer, very hard worker. Improving her game with handles, will handle the point position. Can play off the ball well. Her 3-point shooting puts her among the best in Ohio history. (featured photo above)
On most D4 teams she would have started last year but they were so deep, she did get some action with some experience. She is a scorer and does a nice job scoring well from the perimeter. Gets to rim well and has a lot of experience as only a sophomore as she has played a lot of ball. Has waited to get here and prove herself. Very high basketball IQ and a solid defender.
Rose Parcher
Rose Parcher
Last season, Rose led the league in rebounding as she is a solid force around the rim. Very athletic for her height and is very successful against most teams in conference in the paint. A player to watch this season.
Khari Bland
Khari Bland
Pure point guard who averaged 13 points per game. Comparable to Mateen Cleaves with her style of play. Uses her body well and can get to the rim. Working on the midrange, does a good job in transition and runs the floor well. Also sees the floor well.
Natalie Thompson
Natalie Thompson
In the media, everyone wants to write about the scorers, which she can do. She is more of a distributor and a solid rebounder as a point guard. Hard nosed defender, does it all. Team doesn’t score a lot as a team but she was a consistent scorer.
