Ava Grosdidier Ava Grosdidier 5'10" | PF Blue Valley Northwest | 2026 State KS , 5’10”, PF, Blue Valley Northwest – The top 6A debuter, Grosdidier enters the rankings at #26. My colleague Earl Austin wrote in October about her quality post game, use of her size when boxing out, her vocalness on defense, and the quality screens she sets.
Thasanee Wilmeth Thasanee Wilmeth 5'6" | SG Trinity Academy | 2026 State KS , 5’6″, SG, Trinity Academy – One of two Knights and the top 3A player debuting Wilmeth enters the rankings at #28. Wilmeth is a consistent and dynamic presence on both ends of the floor. Able to defend in the full court with quickness and physicality she is often the fastest player on the floor. A creative scoring threat Wilmeth also is a perimeter shooting threat with a swift release.
Kaylin Caron Kaylin Caron 5'9" | PF Field Kinley | 2026 State KS , 5’9″, PF/PG, Field Kinley – The lone 4A debuter, Caron joins the rankings at #32. A strong down-the-floor passer Caron has solid speed, quickness and athleticism. She was a Southeast Kansas League second team and Varsity Kansas 4A honorable mention selection in 2023.
Audrey Smith Audrey Smith 6'3" | C Trinity Academy | 2026 State KS , 6’3″, C, Trinity Academy – The second of two Knights debuting in the rankings Smith enters at #34. Against Spring Hill in early December Smith has a solid base skill set to develop into one of the top center prospects in the state. She has solid quickness on the offensive end, moves well without the ball, and uses her length well to gather her share of rebounds. Smith also showed strong mid-range shooting ability. A very solid shot blocker as well.
Delaney Larson Delaney Larson 5'5" | SG Manhattan | 2026 State KS , 5’5″, SG, Manhattan – Larson enters the rankings at #65. She us a dynamic offensive threat with quick hands, good speed, finishing ability, and will drop bombs from all around the perimeter.
Molly Collins Molly Collins 5'8" | SF Olathe West | 2026 State KS , 5’7″, SF, Olathe West – The top small forward debuting Collins joins the rankings at #70. She brings to the table solid size, speed with the ball, and athletic finishing ability.
