She plays with a motor to defend and aggression. She is very fast in the open court and can get to the basket with her frame and speed. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='860639' first='Melicia' last='Nelson'] <strong>Window Rock</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A pure point guard with good size and skill. She has next level court vision and has command of the teams offense. She can score from all levels with pull-ups, threes and floaters plus uses her long arms to play the passing lanes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='205644' first='Reanna' last='Farrington'] <strong>Hamilton (Pictured)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A taller scoring guard with a defensive mentality. She bothers her opponents with her size and athleticism. She is also a three level scorer with threes, getting to the basket to score or getting fouled. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='758835' first='Taeja' last='Bartee']</strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/taeja-bartee/"></a> Sandra Day O'Connor</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bartee was pivotal in the 6A win for the Eagles. She handled a lot of the ball pressure and passed it well up the court plus defended and scored. She has quick feet on defense with speed. She can get to the rim plus hit the open three. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='205639' first='Sarah' last='Nakamura Miller']</strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/sarah-nakamura-miller/"></a> Xavier</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A highly skilled guard is a big reason why the Gators won the ring. She confidently hit shots from all levels with threes, playing smartly off the pick and roll game and deceptively getting into the paint to score. <strong> </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='205638' first='Dominique' last='Nesland']</strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/dominique-nesland/"></a> Xavier </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A strong true lead guard with elite size for position.

She can hit the three when left open and has a sneaky burst to get downhill. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
