Highly touted prospects such as [player_tooltip player_id='803053' first='Ryenn' last='Gordon'], [player_tooltip player_id='631765' first='Ava' last='Pratt'], and [player_tooltip player_id='803056' first='Simone' last='Walker'] are all within the Top 5 of this class. These three give the team great balance positionally as well. Gordon is a true PG that will get everybody involved. Pratt is an all-around wing player that has a ton of upside. Walker is a 6'2 forward who will be a major defensive piece and affects the game on both sides of the ball. Her upside is through the roof. An interesting prospect to track on this team will be Khloe Nichlson who has a lot of buzz as she enters her freshman year at Quincy (IL). An 8th grader with a rare combination of size, speed, and skill at 6'1. She looks like a potential blue chip prospect that will be nationally known. [player_tooltip player_id='803086' first='Julia' last='Wegener'] is another standout player who will provide on/off ball value. She makes shots, can create for others, and earned a ton of varsity experience as a freshman. This team can be one of the best 15u squads in the entire EYBL. They have talent and some intriguing 2028 prospects mixed throughout.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
