This next group includes numerous smaller school prospects. The final group of new additions are led by three from class 3A. Take a look at the snapshots for each player below.   [player_tooltip player_id='822639' first='Adaylee' last='Morel'], 5'6", PG, Nickerson - Debuting at #135 Morel stepped into the point guard role this season and has played it well. Athletic with good offensive quickness and handles she works well in transition scoring the ball or pulling up for the jumper. She is a three point threat who works well in space to create opportunities for her teammates. Morel is an improving on-ball defender as well.   [player_tooltip player_id='822719' first='Cali' last='Honeyman'], 5'11", SF, Nemaha Central - The first of two Thunder debuting in this group Honeyman brings size and solid athleticism to the position. A three point threat, she has handles to work in transition. Quick and lengthy, Honeyman usually can be found disrupting offenses playing at the top of full court pressure. Honeyman enters the rankings at #136.   [player_tooltip player_id='822712' first='Sammie' last='Brooks'], 5'9", CG, Buhler - The first of two Crusader debuters in the group, at #137, Brooks has a solid build, good strength, and good transition speed. An improved off-ball and cutter defender she also jumps to the ball well when rebounding.   [player_tooltip player_id='822724' first='Brooke' last='Koenigsman'], 5'8", SG/PG, Thomas More Prep-Marian - Entering the ranks at #138, Koenigsman is just a solid, all-around player who can shoot the ball, drive to the basket with purpose, and uses her length well defending and scoring. She was a Mid-Continent League second team selection in 2023.   [player_tooltip player_id='822716' first='Keilee' last='Finnerty'], 5'10", SF, Hartford - Debuting at #148 Finnerty is player I saw at the MAYB 1A/2A tournament last June. What struck me is her feel for the game and yet is not quite polished and fluid enough to execute effectively some of what she sees. Reps should take care of that. I like her potential. One play I really liked was a drive down the lane, over the rim, take to finish with extension over defenders. She is also a solid free throw shooter.   [player_tooltip player_id='822731' first='Gaby' last='Peterson'], SG, Sedgwick - Coming in at #150 is Peterson. A swift, active defender with quick hands she also will take the ball to the house off a pick and finish with speed. Peterson is also a good perimeter threat.   [player_tooltip player_id='822636' first='Reagan' last='Gerety'], 6'0", PF, Nemaha Central - Gerety, the second of two Thunder debuters in the group, joins at #151. A Big 7 honorable mention selection in 2023 she is a solid shot blocker who swats without fouling. Not super jumpy, she holds her ground well defending. I like her interior quickness as well.   [player_tooltip player_id='822752' first='Averi' last='Windholz'], 5'10", C, Victoria - Drawn from class 1A division II ranks, Windholz, debuting at #152, has put up strong numbers for the 3-5 Knights. Laying down 16.1 points and 9.7 rebounds and picking up 1.3 assists and 2.3 steals per game. Her steals almost always come from her uncanny ability to anticipate where the next pass is going, enabling her to get to the ball a split to half of a second quicker than most players.   [player_tooltip player_id='822750' first='Grace' last='William'], 5'11", PF, Osborne - William enters at #153. A forward with good size and transition speed, she can step out and hit the three ball. On the raw side I will be looking for improvements in fluidness and increase quickness on her shot. Would also like to see her not be so quick at passing the ball out from the high post. Squaring up off the catch will resolve that. William does a solid job of clearing defensive rebounds.   [player_tooltip player_id='822751' first='Aneila' last='Williams'], CG, Andover - Debuting at #157, Williams is somewhat a victim of circumstance. On the 5A #1 ranked team with a pair of division I commits and transfer of that caliber as well, Williams is a bench player who gets limited time. What is known is Williams has good handles working one-on-one in the half court and, after hitting the game winner against Liberal last season, can score the ball under pressure. One thing I saw from her that stands out is what she showed playing in the MAYB Hall of Fame Showcase last April. I really loved an instance where she boxed a bigger player out to create an opportunity for a teammate to get an offensive rebound and put back. Boxing with a purpose is not something seen every day.   [player_tooltip player_id='822746' first='Claudia' last='Taylor'], 5'6", CG, Buhler - Taylor is the second Crusader debuting in the group, joining at #161. A southpaw ball handler I saw her in early December where she played with a foot injury. Despite struggles to keep ball handlers out of the lane she was still strong, physical, active, and took the ball to the basket with purpose. Healthy, her lateral quickness is solid as is her speed with the ball in transition.
