Natalie stepped up big in their huge conference win over Tippecanoe last week that I attended. She quickly opened the eyes of those in the gym with three long-range threes making her such an impact in their offense. She moves well and was able to get set and knock down the long range shots.
She could really have a memorable season with her athleticism and ability to create scoring chances for herself and her teammates. She provides good senior leadership.
A key piece of the Meadowdale offense, Janiyah has some great athleticism that she uses to create scoring chances. She is long and quick with active hands and can defend multiple positions. I do like the way she can slash to the rim and score through contact.
Plays the game at a fast pace and able to use the tempo to her advantage. She is only a sophomore and with a lot of room to continue to grow, her development could fly off the chart with contnued hard work. (featured photo above)

Addie has become one of the primary scoring options for Tri-Village after the graduation of a lot of scoring off their state championship team. She has a deadly three-point shot, and moves off the screen well to catch and shoot.
Her game continues to grow, and getting that experience from the state title run as a freshman helped her leadership this season. She runs the floor well and gets into position to be a threat.
Talk about a player who has improved….that is Alexis. She had to take on a role last year of a leader and she grew from that. Her game has blossomed and she showed some really good things last week. She plays the game with poise and sees the floor well. Able to get downhill and finish at the rim. She is a scrappy player who can pick up her scoring chances when given to her.
Showed a good periemter game, not afirad at all to let it fly from the perimeter and her confidence is growing with every game she plays. Can’t wait to see her later to note the continued improvement.

This was the first time I had seen her play, and I think her potential is there. Her post presence is strong and she has a soft touch at the rim. Good finisher at the rim with a nice half-hook shor and does a good job working on establishing position in the paint.
She hasn’t even begun to reach her potential and with hard work and gym time, she has a chance to grow into more of a steady and consistent player. Right now it’s about learning the game and building confidence of taking control of the paint.
