Super Six
Gallagher is a multi-sport athlete and you can see some of that out there on the floor. Over the course of the season she really started to play at a higher level. She was timing blocks just right and she was using her base more to get through contact on the ball. She also started to play with a lot more confidence. She could be an interesting prospect with a very high ceiling.
Although she is listed as a SF, she is more of a wing that can play inside and out. She is great already going over both shoulders and showing that touch. Her ability to step out in the perimeter and work off the bounce is impressive. She has a solid IQ and will only get better with her footwork and all-around game. She was scoring at an impressive pace in 6A.
Montgomery is another soccer/basketball stud that puts in the time at the gym. You can tell as she has great vision and if you leave her open out beyond the arc she will hurt you. Quick first step and an elite motor.
Currently at #1 in her class and she has been dominant, especially with her back to the basket. She has strength skill and she is going to be solid playing up at the grassroots level.
One of the best CG’s in the state and her shooting from deep really sets the tone. She can get things going from deep and she could go off for 2,3 or 4+. She was impressive this season.
Highlights
On a team full of solid guard Leah is a strong lead guard that plays a mature still of play. She can handle and create and she had some games where she went off. She is going to be a player to watch the next few years over at Timpview who has a young and developing roster.
Fab 5
Nordstrom was playing some solid minutes on one of the best teams in teh state and she contributed all season long doing the little things, like attacking and kicking and rebounding. Late n the season her confidence continued to rise and she was showing everyone that she could also score from anywhere on the floor, including from deep.
Willard was great this season and not only does she has size but some all-around skill for sure. She battles on the boards and can work with the ball in her hands. Good footwork and she will be the next solid forward to come out of Davis.
Searle has a solid game and we do not see her slowing down anytime soon. She knows how to work in the paint and make easy work of any offensive rebounds.
Speardon is tough to cover especially in single coverage. She knows hoe to use the glass and she works on the glass. Next year she might get a few more touches but expect her game to expand some more.
One of the best stat stuffers in the state. A true PG that also packs a scoring punch. Sikander gets that ball moving and she is one of those players that has a little bit of wiggle to her game and she finds all her shooters. She is going to be solid as she was a started on a 6A program that made a deep run at state.
Watch List
Keep an eye on Evy Roberts over at Bingham as she might be one of the best shooters in the class.

Olivia Surrage Olivia Surrage 5'9" | SF Fremont | 2027 State UT at Fremont was solid and Cailin Kehl was a do it all type of player as well.
