Teams can put the best defender on her, and it doesn’t phase Riley. When I saw her play the first time as a 5th grader, I said then that she could be the next Jacy Sheldon.

#2 Ryleigh Thrapp: 2028, 5-9, Legends U Blue Select 40 East 2027: Thrapp’s shooting is a sight to see! Smooth mechanics, not afraid to take big shots. Her three ball is strong! She’s a walking bucket! Her shots don’t touch the rim! (Below with ball)
#2 Keiara Sellers: 5-3, IExcel Freshman Team 2027 Nixon: Ultra quick hands, gets up and down the court in a flash! Hard to stop on transition! She keeps the ball tight and secure- and her decision making skills are so strong!
#3 Taleiyah Smith: 5-7, IExcel Freshman Team 2027 Nixon: Beautiful hesitation moves free her up for high percentage shots to the basket. Uses the glass well! She runs the offense well, attacks the basket, and forces turnovers on defense.
#0 Emma Schaefer Emma Schaefer 5'11" | CG Olmsted Falls | 2027 State OH : 5-11, Mac Basketball Select 40 East 2027: Emma does an excellent job protecting the ball while going strong to the basket! Shields it so well! Makes the extra pass to teammate! She makes good things happen! And defensively she’s all over anyone coming near the basket! (Below with red jersey/black tshirt)
#55 Regan Braaten Regan Braaten 5'6" | PG Midpark | 2027 State OH : 5-5, Mac Basketball Select 40 East 2027: Braaten for 3! She can shoot the rock folks! Shows patience within the offense, and no hesitation! And I love her instincts, whether that be anticipating a pass to pick off, or feeding the ball to her teammate at the perfect time!
