Continue ReadingThe talent at The Clash was like no other. So many good players displayed their skills, and many more put themselves on the radar. Here are some sleepers to watch as we go forward into the summer and into next high school season.
I liked her ability to drop step and score at the rim. Good footwork and fundamentally sound, able to finish to score. She showed me a great up and under ability to get the ball to the rim. Defensively she has a solid frame and can protect the paint.
She just does the little things that the scorebook won’t capture. She plays with a high motor and is athletic to defend multiple positions. Great drop step and footwork in the paint, able to take the ball with confidence and finish at the rim. She is from Michigan, so I have not seen her until last weekend, super talented!

A solid player on the boards, she is active and can push tempo up the court in transition. Finishes well and reacts to the play, able to create a scoring chance for herself. She has good length and can come up with deflections on the defensive end of the floor.
Faith has an explosive first step and can get by her defender on her way downhill. Smooth finisher at the rim, plays with a hop and has the speed to make plays in a variety of ways. Plays with a motor that gives her an advantage. Looking to continue to grow her game.

Lauren is a solid guard with good length and is able to stretch the floor. Can flash in the paint and catch and score. Good court vision, can kick it out for the better shot. Heading into her junior season, she looks to make a big impact at Berlin.

Her game continues to grow from when I saw her last high school season. She is fundamentally sound and has a nice skillset for heading into her sophomore year. Has handles to play a guard spot can also score at the rim. Makes good decisions. Good court sense and court vision, good passer.
Gabriella Yancura

She has a nice smooth jumper with solid range, or she can put the ball on the floor and score on the drive to the basket. A player to keep an eye on going forward this summer, Gabriella looks to use the next few months to continue to expand her game.
She does a great job reading the play in advance on the defensive end and making the play. Able to set solid screens on offense and create plays for her team. She joined this team last weekend at our PGH event in Fishers, and looks more settled in this week. Physical player who can play through contact and contribute. (Featured photo above)

She is a spunky guard who may be smaller in stature, but she is big in game. She has good control of the ball, She appears to be a good floor leader and active on both ends of the floor. Just needs to continue to gain experience and her game will continue to improve. She has a nice skillset.

She has one of the smoothest pull-up jumpers I saw all weekend. She moved well without the ball and put herself in position to contribute. She was a key part of their offensive attack. Has good range, solid handles and her effort is solid.
