Tylee Weite Tylee Weite 5’10” | SG Des Moines – Valley | 2027 State IA from Valley High School is off to a great start to the season. She leads all Freshman in 5A scoring with 86 points and has a game high of 19 points. This player has shown that she can do it all, she is a starter in her first year and has put her skill set on display. From shooting 3’s, getting to the rim, and creating for her teammates, Tylee is the type of player who makes winning plays. In a tough conference, she has proven that she is one of the top players in the state and especially in her class!

Kaitlin Loria Kaitlin Loria 5’10” | SF IC City High | 2027 IA who plays for Iowa City High is second in scoring with 84 points and a game high of 24! Success for this athlete has been from her work ethic. She gets good positioning in the post, seeks offensive rebounds, takes good shots behind the arc, and moves well without the ball. When she plays off of two feet, she’s much stronger with her finishes around the basket because she seeks contact and doesn’t shy away from it. I’m looking forward to watching her play in January!
Lillie Spicer Lillie Spicer 6’0″ | PF CR – Jefferson | 2027 State IA from Cedar Rapids Jefferson High School is third on the list with 82 points. Her game high stat line thus far is 21 points with 13 rebounds. She has a dominant presence in the paint. Lillie works hard from start to finish and looks to outwork everyone on the floor. She’s a great rim to rim runner in transition, establishes post positioning early and is very active on both sides. Additionally, she has good footwork around the basket with a nice touch on her finishes.
Highlights
Katie Muller Katie Muller 6’0″ | SG Dowling Catholic | 2027 State IA out of Dowling Catholic High School is fifth on the list with 76 points and a game high of 14 points shooting 50% from the three point line. I was able to watch her play at the Winter Tip-Off and she was on fire in the second half. Katie knocked down 4 threes to help her team rally back after a slow start. This freshman is playing with a ton of confidence and is only going to get better over time. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her climb into the top 2 spots for points scored in the freshman class before the season is over. She’s the type of player who will be ready to play collegiate basketball when her High School basketball career concludes.
