Here comes another Wypych! Addison is a skilled guard who plays well beyond her years. She can shoot the rock, handle it, and get downhill. She plays tough D. I see her dominating all spring and summer!
Kloe George

George is a smooth guard with exceptional ball-handling skills. She knocked down multiple shots from behind the arc at a high rate. I look forward to watching her compete the rest of the spring and summer.
Reese Lape
Reese Lape
Lape is a long, athletic guard who competed on both ends of the floor. She has a nice-looking outside shot and showed off her pull-up jumper. She was crafty at the rim with multiple finishes in traffic. We don’t have her in our rankings YET!
Layla Blumberg

Blumberg’s basketball IQ is well beyond her years; she is truly a versatile player who can score efficiently at all three levels. Moreover, she can defend the full length of the court with ease. I always enjoy watching her play, and I’m excited to see more of her in the upcoming spring and summer games.
Bultsma was a force in the paint at the Battle in the Mitten. She does a great job of getting in position for the offensive rebound and had many put-backs on the day. Her guards did a great job of getting her the ball high, and she kept it there for an easy finish.
Pelletier had an outstanding performance on Sunday at the Battle in the Mitten. Despite frequently playing out of position on most teams, she excelled as a true 4 on Sunday. Pelletier demonstrated excellent ball-handling skills and helped break the press. She was able to drive through traffic and finish strong at the rim, as well as grab numerous rebounds on both ends of the court.
