All players are class of 2027 unless otherwise noted.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Amarie Lowery</strong>, PG, Lady PGUHoops 2027, McPherson (KS) - The strongly built <strong>Lowery</strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/lowery/"></a> showed quickness on both ends and an ability to set very solid screens. Running the show she does a nice job of surveying the floor, attacking weakness and finding teammates with the pass.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Haley Schmidtlein</strong>, 5'11”, PF,&nbsp;<a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/program/missouri-phenom/"><strong>[program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom']</strong></a>&nbsp;2027 Topeka, Hayden (KS) – The long-limbed forward consistently shot passing lanes, quickness handling the ball and smooth footwork in the block area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Alexa Splechter</strong><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/alexa-splechter/"></a>&nbsp;, PG,&nbsp;<a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/program/kansas-elite/"><strong>Kansas Elite</strong></a>&nbsp;2027 Halliday, Burlington (KS) – Splechter ran the point with solid handles but something I really liked is her directing traffic ability. She showed consistent quickness on both ends.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='899951' first='Juliana' last='Davenport'], [program_tooltip program_id='712993' first='Team' last='Trae Young'] 2027 3SSB, Sequoyah (OK), 2028 – The fast, athletic guard/forward was among the most disruptive defenders I saw all day. Not that she is slow (she is not!) but she appears quicker than she is fast. She also has long arms and plays physically on both ends. With her reach she made life difficult for perimeter players with and without the ball. She is solid knocking down mid-range jumpers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='777631' first='Sophia' last='Benke'], 5'6", SG, [program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom'] 2027 - Columbia, Warrenton (MO) - Arguably the most dangerous shooter at the event Benke buried as many as five in a half. She moved into space to spot up well. Her trigger is on the quick side and she shoots it with range from all over. Not just a shooter Benke has solid speed, scores well in transition and off the bounce and does so with either hand. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
