Sometimes players were overlooked other times players just stepped up. Here are the latest additions to the 2027 rankings.
#5
Nyair’s addition has helped to boost Archbishop Carroll from placeholders to legitimate contenders. The Lion’s are a dangerous team to play and meeting them early in the playoffs is something no one wants. Nyair comes in at the #5 spot because of her speed, crossover and shooting combination. She has the makings of something special and brings a refreshing new energy tot the WCAC.
#10
London landed a top 10 spot from her play at the SGGC. Her transition game and ability to run the court and finish was above the level of most freshmen. I can see a bright future for her as her game continues to improve.
#13
Payton has an athletic frame and nice form on her shot. She plays hard and on both ends getting tips in the passing lanes. I liked her three pointer off the dribble, it seems like a natural shot for her. I will be keeping a close eye on her for future rankings.

Naomi can shoot the ball really well. She is accurate off the catch and off the dribble. She has a very quick release, maybe one of the quickest in the class. She maintains her form and follow through even on difficult shots.

Laniaia has good length and is effective at blocking shots. She can finish around the basket well and makes some really nice plays. As she becomes more consistent we can see her rankings rise. She definitely has the foundation to be an elite player.
