Kennedy Hayes
Kennedy Hayes
Wow she has a super quick first step and can blast her way to the rim. Was directed to watch her from their assistant coach who was a former D1 college player, and she was spot on. I really like the potential for this kid, she has a chance to really develop. Good handles and can score in a variety of ways.
Reagan Reilly

Reagan came off the bench and she immediately was a factor as she dropped a three from deep in the corner. She has good length and a wingspan that could deflect and be a factor in the paint. A sleeper to watch a sophomore. Her game will continue to grow as she develops her game.
Nalayna Cosby

Cosby is a super quick guard who can push tempo, good handles and able to distribute with good court vision. Good on ball defender. Her game is continuing to grow and while her team struggled to compete on this night, the shifty electric guard did some good things in the loss.
During her time on the court, Alea provided a great spark off the bench. She showed off her solid perimeter shooting with a big three and ensuing drive to the rim. This team has a lot of solid weapons, Alea fits right in during her role as a player who can provide solid offense with a varsity of scoring chances. (feature photo above)

This was the first time I have seen her play and it won’t be the last. Addison is long and lengthy, has a great wingspan and does a great job protecting the rim. For a freshman she is poised and able to play through the physical high school game. A bright future and high ceiling as long as she continues to work on her craft.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I saw her because of the uncertainty of her skillset based on their schedule. I did think she did some nice things and was not afraid to pull the trigger from the outside. Good ball handler. Able to penetrate and score or pull up and hit the midrange. She is the main threat in their offense and can create scoring chances.
