One of the best in the state is how I would describe Miller’s game and the Gabriel Richard backcourt. Miller was so efficient and intelligent when it came to her scoring, but she also found open teammates and rebounded the ball from the perimeter. She showed up on both ends of the floor, creating timely turnovers in her team’s win against Dow.
Highlights
I could have picked any member of their starting lineup honestly, but I’be just been really impressed with Williams since the summer. I love what she brings to this team. She’s a powerful yet versatile forward that will give matchup issues to many teams with her ability to work outside-in or inside-out.
VanSumeren’s Dow team lost a tough game against Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard, but her game definitely stood out. She will be critical to this team this season. Dow has some nice perimeter talent, but VanSumeren looks like she might be their best rebounder of the bunch. They’ll need those boards from her as the season rolls on. She had 9 points and a handful of rebounds in this game.

Arico is a BIG TIME freshman talent. I’m talking a national ranking at the end of the year type of talent. She led her team to an impressive win against a very talented Tecumseh team. Arico is so smooth with the ball off the wing with hip movement and feet that look elite. She had over 20 points and a handful of rebounds to go with it.
With Country Day there’s a lot of focus on the young talent, but let’s not forget that they have one of the best seniors in the state. Elam is an Oakland commit that’s a force on the wing. She can attack the rim, shoot with range and find teammates on the move. Elam did all of this and more yesterday, coming teasingly close to a double-double in points and rebounds.
