It’s been a great two years for Guidetti at Rumson Fair-Haven, including this season, and the senior will have plenty of basketball left for her as she committed to continuing her career at Catholic University in Washington D.C.
This season, she’s averaged 11 PPG, 2.9 RPG and 2.1 APG through 10 games, excelling from beyond the arc as she did as a junior. Guidetti has knocked down 47 threes in 37 career games at RFH, an impressive number bound to increase this season. Really proud of her and really excited to see what she can do in college.
Kiyomi McMiller Kiyomi McMiller 5'8" | PG Life Center Academy | 2024 State NJ – Life Center Academy (2024) commits to Rutgers
Rutgers just got a hell of a recruit in a top three prospect in the senior class in New Jersey as ranked by PGH NJ, senior Kiyomi McMiller Kiyomi McMiller 5'8" | PG Life Center Academy | 2024 State NJ out of Life Center Academy. The five-star prospect went to ESPN’s SportsCenter Next Instagram account to make her announcement, one that will see her stay in New Jersey and head to a Power Five conference team.
McMiller is a 20-point scorer at LCA, an impressive skillset that we haven’t seen out of too many players coming out of the Garden State. Her playmaking ability speaks for itself and her demeanor on the court is one of determination and grit. Massive get for the Scarlet Knights.
Kennedy Brown Kennedy Brown 5'8" | CG Morris Catholic | 2026 State NJ – Morris Catholic (2026) offered by Furman
Coming off the John Wall Invitational in North Carolina during the holidays, Furman University showed great interest in Morris Catholic guard Kennedy Brown Kennedy Brown 5'8" | CG Morris Catholic | 2026 State NJ , giving her an official offer.
Well-deserved and much-deserved accomplishment for Brown as her list of college offers will continue to grow as her career continues. She’s been great as a sophomore for the Crusaders, averaging 8.4 PPG, 2.6 RPG and 1.9 APG in nine games played and we won’t forget to mention her 1.8 SPG thus far as well, made even more impressive by MC’s tough schedule.
Harper Felch Harper Felch 5'9" | PG Morris Tech | 2024 State NJ – Morris Tech (2024) commits to Academy of Art
The dominoes of uncommitted seniors in New Jersey continue to fall, the next piece being Morris Tech senior Harper Felch Harper Felch 5'9" | PG Morris Tech | 2024 State NJ , who committed to Academy of Art in late December.
Like clockwork, Felch has continued her success into this season in a big way, averaging 17.2 PPG through seven games played with the Devils. That’s right on track with her scoring average as a junior, and we’re just expecting the scoring train to keep on rolling. An unquestionable leader on her team, Felch is going to bring that with her to the next level, no doubt.
Jaylyn Orefice Jaylyn Orefice 5'9" | SF Union City | 2024 State NJ – Union City (2024) commits to Caldwell
Already an 1,000 point scorer, Union City senior Jaylyn Orefice Jaylyn Orefice 5'9" | SF Union City | 2024 State NJ in mid-December committed to Caldwell University to continue her basketball career at the next level.
This is beyond well-deserving for her, one of the better players in this senior class in New Jersey and a mainstay for Union City while there. She’s coming off a career year as a junior and is already averaging 15.8/6.6/3.2 as a senior, upping her assists per game, which has been nice to see, while continuing to be effective in all aspects on the court.

The lone player from South Jersey mentioned in this story, Palmyra senior Cadence Anderson Cadence Anderson 5'5" | PG Palmyra | 2024 State NJ will be continuing her career at Division III school Elizabethtown College after committing in mid-December.
Her impact for Palmyra has been immeasurable and we can trace that back just to this season as she’s averaging well over 20 points a game for the Panthers, knocking down nearly two three-pointers a game in the process. Arguably one of the best players in program history, she’s deservingly getting her shot in college.
