Final Rankings Update: 2024 Power Forwards

<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"small"} --> <p class="has-small-font-size"><em>The featured image is of [player_tooltip player_id='177332' first='Sophie' last='Johnson'] (2024) of Evansville's Reitz Memorial High School.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we enter the Spring 2024 grassroots season, it is time to wrap up coverage for the Class of 2024. These Seniors have given us great memories over the past four years, and they are that last class who had to deal with the dreadfully inconsistent 2020-2021 COVID season. We finish with 250 players listed in the Class of 2024, including a Top-125, plus a watch list of another 125 prospects. This will be the last time we update rankings for the class, and below I have taken the time to highlight all of the power forward prospects in this class we currently have listed. Below that is a look at a few who remain uncommitted, to the best of our knowledge.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><font color="#FFFFFF">.</font></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong><font size="+1">Rk.</font></strong></td><td><strong><font size="+1">Name</font></strong></td><td><strong><font size="+1">Pos.</font></strong></td><td><strong><font size="+1">Ht.</font></strong></td><td><strong><font size="+1">H.S.</font></strong></td><td><strong><font size="+1">College</font></strong></td></tr><tr><td>1.</td><td>[player_tooltip player_id='201885' first='Faith' last='Wiseman']</td><td>PF</td><td>6-4</td><td>Indian Creek</td><td>Indiana</td></tr><tr><td>2.</td><td>[player_tooltip player_id='177362' first='Juliann' last='Woodard']</td><td>PF</td><td>6-1</td><td>Jennings County</td><td>Michigan State</td></tr><tr><td>3.</td><td>[player_tooltip player_id='177344' first='Ellery' last='Minch']</td><td>PF/SF</td><td>6-3</td><td>Mt.

/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+2">TOP-5 UNCOMMITTED POWER FORWARDS:</font></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+1">7. [player_tooltip player_id='177332' first='Sophie' last='Johnson'], 2024, 6-0 PF/SF, Evansville Memorial H.S.</font></strong><br>- Sophie was really starting to pick up a lot of interest between the Spring following her Freshman year, through her Junior season, but she was unfortunately injured during the state tournament in February of 2023. She has bounced back and had a great Senior season and currently holds a Missouri Valley offer. She is long, versatile, and has a good handle and vision. She can make shots at all three levels, and she is a pursuing rebounder.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+1">14. [player_tooltip player_id='510511' first='Arianna' last='Gerkin'], 2024, 5-11 PF/SF, Vincennes Lincoln H.S.</font></strong><br>- Arianna is kind of a hidden talent in Southwest Indiana, but several of the better small colleges in the Midwest figured it out in July, and she made a number of visits during the Fall. I know she is a multisport kid, but I'm not sure how that fits into her plans. She is strong, athletic, and she is willing to be physical, while also possessing good perimeter skill. She can push the ball in transition or rim-run and bury her defender on the block.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+1">22. [player_tooltip player_id='406435' first='Molly' last='Baker'], 2024, 5-10 PF, Columbia City H.S.</font></strong><br>- Molly stands out on her Eagles' team because she is pretty much the only non-guard in the lineup. She is a versatile, multilevel player, though. She has a great motor, doesn't mind physicality on the interior, and she's a good rebounder. At the same time, she can step outside, knock down a rhythm 3-pointer, or she can put it on the floor and go North/South to the rim. If she wants to play in college, she could make a really nice small college forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+1">24. [player_tooltip player_id='264114' first='Taylor' last='Kneubuhler'], 2024, 6-0 PF, Woodlan H.S.</font></strong><br>- Taylor hasn't played much grassroots basketball since she was younger, because she is another multisport kid who spends some time in those other sports during the basketball offseason. She is tall, long, active, and athletic. She can play some on the wing, make an outside shot or drive it, but she's also highly effective in the mid-post and on second-chance points. She's another kid who, if she wants to play, could be a nice small college contributor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><font size="+1">29. [player_tooltip player_id='718313' first='Molly' last='Muhlenkamp'], 2024, 5-11 PF/SF, Jay County H.S.</font></strong><br>- Molly had been a role player behind some talented 2023s at Jay County. Then, last Summer, she started to come out of her shell, and this Winter she was one of their best players. She is extremely long, very bouncy, and end-to-end fast. At times, she almost looks like a track star on a basketball court, but she does have some skill, nice versatility, and she plays with an outstanding motor. She's also a high-academic kid, from what I understand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
