#24 Gia Kinsey: 2029, IDream Gold 17U: Gia’s graduation year is not a typo! She’s a 2029, playing on a 17U team! Love how she pushes the ball after rebounding. Confident, makes things click offensively. I love her moves to the basket! Kinsey is a shooter and 100% clutch in pressure situations! Hit the game winning 3! Ice in her veins! (Featured Photo)
#30 Za’Nyah Bernard: IDream Gold 17U: Nice corner three, nothing but nylon! Love her footwork- stutter step move to the basket is textbook! Her hands are always ready for the pass! Strong overall game! Gets to the charity stripe. (Below shooting)
#3 Layla Houpe: 2029, 6-2, Legends U Blue Select 40 East 2027: Great hands- they are like velcro when she’s catching the ball on the block and grabbing boards! Protects the paint so well with her length! She has a high ceiling! Remember her name!
#1 Carine Harris: 2028, 6-0, Legends U Blue Select 40 East 2027: Fantastic defender! No problem going coast to coast with a defender stuck to her side! Physically strong, stands her ground in the paint- Harris is a problem for opponents! (Below in white jersey)
#2 Joi Williams Joi Williams 5'5" | PG CVCA | 2025 State OH : 5-5, MAC Basketball Select 40 East 2025: Solid pull up jumper- you can tell it’s going in as soon as she releases! I like her intensity she shows defensively! Finds the gaps to get open looks, and takes care of the rock!
#23 Rylee Szojka: 5-8, MAC Basketball Select 40 East 2025: Rylee from downtown! Great muscle memory shooting mechanics- And there’s another 3 from the corner! She’s feeling it! Quick trigger, great instincts defensively, and I like the leadership she shows! (Below, left- in red jersey)
#42 Kaelyse Mitchell: 6-4, IGB 17U S40: Mitchell’s length and muscle frame is a big time issue for opponents! Rebounding, blocking shots, protecting the lane, scoring on the block, altering guards shots from coming anywhere near the basket- she can do all of these very well!
#3 Stella Ziogas: 2026, 5-5, Lightning Team Melious Gold 17U: Wow. Let me just say coaches- Stella’s got the skills to pay the bills! Her IQ, focus, and intensity is different- she’s at that next level. Her handles are excellent! The game and her decision making comes so naturally! Scoring machine, and defensive beast! Absolute clinic!
