<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Girls Hoops Missouri takes a look at some of the standout guards who caught our eye at last weekend's Coach T Classic at Pattonville High.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891105,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1360.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891105"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='813483' first='Rylee' last='Dodson'] (Phenom 16U Jackson): The 2027 guard from Rolla was very impressive in the two games that I watched her play. She is an unselfish player who was dropping some nice dimes in transition and in the half court game. She used her quickness to get into the lane on dribble penetration and she also did a good job of relocating to hit open perimeter jumpers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891109,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1268.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891109"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='803053' first='Ryenn' last='Gordon'] (Phenom 15U EYBL): The 5'7" 2027 point guard from California High is an exciting player who can really distribute the basketball or get a bucket when she needs to. In one game, she did a nice job of fighting off heavy defensive pressure to get into the lane and get buckets. She has good poise under fire and she can also knock down the open 3-pointer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891110,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1427.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891110"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jakia Peterman (STL Phenom Stovall): A talented young guard from Carterville (IL) who plays with a lot of poise and savvy on the court. Everything she does is under control and with purpose and at her own speed. She sees the court well and will thread the needle with a nice pass through the lane at any time. She also has a nice pull up jumper from the mid-range area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> ******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891111,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1364.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891111"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='734902' first='Effie' last='Morris'] (Phenom 16U Jackson): A 2026 point guard from Boonville who has tremendous speed in the open court. She was one of the fastest players that I saw during the weekend. Once she got out in transition, it was a quick bucket. Her on-ball defensive pressure was very good when she got out and guarded.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891112,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1350.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891112"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='460893' first='Chloe' last='Jones'] (Phenom 16U Jackson): A 2026 guard from Willow Springs who is a very natural offensive player. She's very smooth with her handles and she can create off the dribble to knock down the jumper. She also has a nice shooting stroke from 3-point range. She is one of the top buckets in the SWMO area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":891113,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/IMG_1408.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-891113"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='848994' first='Millison' last='Sapp'] (Phenom Springfield): A 2027 point guard from Ash Grove who was impressive when I first saw her at the Walnut Grove Tournament over the Christmas holiday. She has deep shooting range and quick release on her shot. She moves well without the ball and she also plays with a lot of confidence with the ball in her hands. She has a little swag to her game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
