One area that had several talented players was a state that Prep Girls Hoops has yet to launch into, but I wanted to turn the spotlight onto the players from Western Pennsylvania area. These will be published on the West Virginia PGH site.

Allie Wilson, 5-11, SLAAM 2027 Black
Really like her game! She is a good rebounder, plays the game fearless and gets to her spots in the half court offense. She has a good offensive game, can let it fly from deep. Not afraid to take the ball downhill against a physical defender.

She is an incredible athlete, just different with a chance to become very special. With her length, the amount of ground she covers is unreal. Definitely a special player with a chance to really have a great high school career. Rim protector, moves well and can finish. Keep an eye on her the next two years!

She is a baller! Loves to run in transition and does it with ease. Good handles and can get out in front on the break ahead of the pack and score at the rim. Agile and long, able to create with good control and footwork at the rim. Can beat you in a variety of ways. Plays the game with a good pace and is a big factor on both ends of the court.
