You can always find underrated talent at the small schools here in Utah and this youngster Johnson is talented. She is a young player getting to run with a lot of good upper classmen. She is a fierce rebounder and is pulling down about 7 a game and she is scoring at a great pace. Her activity on the defensive end is great too as she is racking up steals as well. She will be a good underrated player to watch this week.
Strong and agile SF for one of those hidden small schools that has been playing good ball right now. Although Reed has positional size she will step out and shoot the rock. She hit 6 three’s earlier this year and looks to keep her 3-point shooting streak alive this week. She has hit at least 1 three-pointer in the last 5 games. She is an underrated player to watch.
Intriguing prospect as a youngster with some great size at center. Her scoring is all over the place but you can see that there is potential there. She is one of those players that we are anticipating to see as she is under the radar and a new name to know.
One of East High Schools Glue Girls. She does a little bit of everything for this team and the thing that she does well is hit some three-pointers. With a lot of attention going to two players she does benefit from that space she is given. She is underrated on this team and a must watch.
Provo has gotten off to a slow start but Fale has the ability to really help them elevate this week. They should come out of this tournament with a few wins and Fale will be among some of the better scorers. Most of her damage is done inside and she will clean up the boards as well. She has some size and will use it. She plays bigger than she is.
Highlights
When she is on she is a player that can stretch the floor. Underrated for sure over at Kearns but this tournament could really elevate her game. Look for her to show off her shooting and her rebounding skills as well.
Cyprus plays a very tough brand of basketball and you get a three-sport athlete with Anderson. She can shoot from deep and is a solid scoring threat all over the floor. Under the radar scorer.
Another sleeper guard over at Cottonwood. Tripp is playing on a solid team and she is able to score inside and outside. She has a quick first stepp but also a good shot. She is due to go off and this weekend could be the time for her to step up her game.
