I continue to stay impressed with the play by Garcia! Isabel has put on quite the performances at the start of her senior season. The past few games, Garcia has put up 12 points, 7 rebounds, & 3 blocks. She also had two back to back double-double games. Those games included 19 points and 10 rebounds & 19 points with 11 rebounds! If you have not extended an offer to Garcia, what are you waiting on? This uncommitted senior will be a great asset at the next level! Yes, Garcia is a great finisher at the rim. She’s a true rebounding machine! I love watching Garcia go to work on the low block! The entire state should know Isabel Garcia Isabel Garcia 5’10” | C Cookeville | 2024 State TN ‘s name now. We are making sure that you do!
Lanee continues to put up impressive numbers all across the board! Carmichael recently went for 20 points, 11 rebounds, & 4 assists. This is an athlete that I can’t wait to watch live in January. The numbers that she continues to put up are definitely noticed by everyone! If you check out any highlights, you will notice that Lanee is a highly skilled athlete with an extremely high IQ! An athlete with great size & length that can play numerous positions. One thing I’ve noticed about Lanee is that she does whatever is needed for her team to win. Carmichael continues to impact the game in different ways and all college coaches should have this one on their radar.
Kelsey is averaging 17.9 points and 7.8 rebounds per game! What stands out most with Holt is her consistency! A good consistent basketball player that is going to continue to show new aspects of her game every time she steps on the court. Kelsey is shooting 90% at the free throw line. That free throw percentage has to be one of the best in the state! Elena Delle Donne said it best, “Make your free throws; Not excuses.” I know who is shooting my free throws at the end of the game. Give me Kelsey! I’ve watched Kelsey play numerous times and she should definitely be on your radar.
Highlights
Yes, I am talking about Burden again! Kaliyah is one of my favorite defensive players to watch! The freshman also averages 5.7 rebounds! The hustle stats that Kaliyah puts up never goes unnoticed. Burden does a little of everything on the court to help her team win. She is shooting over 80% from the foul line. Another impressive stat line is that the freshman is shooting over 48% from the field! Remember, defense turns to offense and Kaliyah Burden Kaliyah Burden 5’8″ | SG Sevier Co. | 2027 State TN is one of the best in her class!
Highlights
Jamal Murray said it best, “You don’t want to be the selfish point guard. You want to be the one that gets everybody open, that makes plays, and see the ball move before it goes in.” Gilbert does this and more! Cara plays the guard position better than most! A guard that can definitely score and get to the basket. However, I love the court vision that Cara has! She has amazing court vision and she shows it every game! This one is going to climb the charts faster than most so keep your eyes on Gilbert! She is already one step ahead of you!
Highlights
Roberts definitely deserves to be mentioned more! The junior has put on quite the varsity performances. Congratulations to Reese for recently joining the 1,000 points club! Call this one a stat sheet filler! One of her recent games she had 18 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, and 4 steals. One quote that I love by Stephen Curry is this, “Every time I rise up, I have confidence that I’m going to make it.” Reese shows that confidence every single time that she pulls the trigger! Keep your eyes on this one!
