Bridget Fitzgerald ( Knights Basketball Academy 14U): A 6’0″ wing who was one of the more impressive young players that I watched during the weekend. She’s an excellent ball handler and passer with the ability to score at all three levels. She is also good on the defensive end as she can get deflections on the perimeter and blocked shots in the paint.

Guiliana Barbieri program_tooltip program_id=’712597′ first=’Knights’ last=’Basketball Academy’] 14U): A 5’9 guard who is an excellent all-purpose player. Whatever is needed to help the team succeed, she is able to provide it. She has a quick first step to attack the basket. She can rebound, handle the ball and guard multiple positions.
*******
Brooklyn Griffith (Porter Basketball Academy 14U): A 5’9″ wing player from Jefferson City who has a good combination of size, strength and versatility. Her passing skills are very good. She handled the ball quite a bit for her team and she proved to be a good facilitator. She could use her strength to power smaller guards into the lane and she had an impressive spin move.
*******
Matilda Miller (Unstoppable 14U): A 5’9″ shooting guard who is a good athlete with length and versatility. She was capable of getting downhill on the drive and she could also shoot it from 3-point range. She can also use her size and length to be disruptive on defense.
******
Kenzie Keys (TC Hoops 14U): A 5’6″ guard from Jackson who is an excellent player in the open court. She had some impressive drives to the basket, which included a nice spin move in traffic that led to a layup. Her passing was excellent which was the theme of all of the players on her team.
******
Ava Stockbarger ( Lady Brad Beal Elite 17U): A 5’8 guard from Hillsboro who plays a solid all around floor game with good fundamentals and a high basketball IQ. She was very effective on the drive and she finished well in the lane. She was also an active rebounder who was always around the ball.
*******
Zoe Zimmerman ( Della Lamb 14U): A 5’8 guard who can really shoot the ball from 3-point range. She would set up shop in the corner and knock down triples throughout the weekend.
