A large creator for open looks has been 2025 forward [player_tooltip player_id='374160' first='Mason' last='Borcherding'] (11.7 P, 8.6 R, 1.9 A), who is a pest scoring in the post, in turn drawing help defense. Their wide array of perimeter specialists have been imperative to their offensive output. 2025 guard [player_tooltip player_id='495896' first='Maley' last='Wilhelm'] (9.9 P, 7.1 R, 2.1 A) has been a high motor athlete, constantly impacting the game through her shotmaking or leveraging of second chance opportunities. Another key impact has come from rising 2025 guard [player_tooltip player_id='689120' first='Ava' last='Gavi'] (9.2 P, 2.4 A), whose sharpshooting at 37% 3P and quick point of attack defense has added a high floor. 2024 guard Katie Lamb (10 P, 5.4 R, 2.6 A) has been effective in and outside the arc, leveraging her strong frame to punish poor closeouts. [player_tooltip player_id='495856' first='Grace' last='Stanley'] (9.4 P, 4.6 A) currently leads this group in assists, a smooth ball handler who makes key decisions in tight lanes. Their x-factor is center [player_tooltip player_id='374161' first='Aubrey' last='Cook'] (8.8 P, 5.3 R, 1.7 B), who adds rim protection and extra size to battle in the post. Other contributing guards include [player_tooltip player_id='584050' first='Aislyn' last='Korella'] (5.5 P), [player_tooltip player_id='806113' first='Maile' last='Starns'] (4.8 P), [player_tooltip player_id='1188988' first='Ashley' last='Houlberg'] (4.1 P). This is a team set to make a deep run in the playoffs, boasting immense depth in the backcourt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Regis Jesuit #8 12-6 (5-0 Continental) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bringing in arguably the most talented starting lineup in the state, Regis Jesuit remains productive on both ends of the floor. Led by Harvard commit and former second team all-state forward [player_tooltip player_id='495859' first='Hana' last='Belibi'] (18 P, 8.4 R), whose two-way impact on the wing is incredibly refined. DU commit [player_tooltip player_id='216730' first='Coryn' last='Watts'] (15.6 P, 4.1 A) continues to excel leading this group in the backcourt, efficiently scoring the ball on all three levels. Another bright spot for this group has been forward [player_tooltip player_id='495868' first='Jane' last='Rumpf']'s (8.9 P, 8.8 R, 1.5 B) lights out shooting beyond the arc at 48%, all while maintaining a steady defensive presence. Their other productive forward is 2025 [player_tooltip player_id='356499' first='Jada' last='Hodges'] (5.1 P, 3.6 R, 1.1 B), who remains a swiss army knife on defense. One of their notable floor spacers, [player_tooltip player_id='423967' first='Iliana' last='Greene'] (9.3 P, 2.5 A), has been a valuable secondary playmaker through her shotmaking and play making while attacking downhill. Their bench production on the margins will maintain this group's floor, including [player_tooltip player_id='495898' first='Mallory' last='Neff'] (3.9 P), Izzy Davies (2.7 P, 3.1 R), [player_tooltip player_id='592727' first='Graysen' last='Redpath'] (2.5 P), and Alice Lynett (2.3 P, 3.1 R). </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Chaparral #10 12-5 (4-2 Continental) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='583854' first='Lauren' last='Thompson'] (12.3 P, 7.6 R, 4.9 A, 3.9 S) has taken on major responsibilities through her sophomore season, leading this group in a variety of categories. Certainly outperforming their preseason outlook through a variety of impactful underclassmen, including [player_tooltip player_id='495865' first='Jade' last='Monroe'] (6.5 P, 3.9 R), Maddie Jenkins (6.4 P, 2.6 R)and [player_tooltip player_id='789207' first='Salem' last='Sherman'] (6.3 P, 3.9 R).
