She displayed the ultimate toughness and continued to dominate despite having an injured shoulder. Mariah swiped the ball away and outraced defenders to score multiple layups in transition with both hands on her layups. She finished inside off two feet and demonstrated her ability to play without the ball. Mariah had a phenomenal tournament and gained notice from college coaches in the process.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":912162,"_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Maya Fuerth","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"12124","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"St. Joseph's (Windsor)","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"Windsor United","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Maya Fuerth 5-9 SF 2024 Windsor United had an outstanding tournament with her team at the Prep Girls Hoops Live. She contributed on both ends of the court, blocking shots inside and defending without fouling on drives. Maya pushed the ball in transition and flung the ball all over the court with great vision and she shot the ball extremely well from outside: hitting multiple 3's from different spots all weekend. Maya is going to be an excellent pickup at the next level.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["911123"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":912176,"_player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Alvia Brown 5-11 W/PF 2025 [program_tooltip program_id='715646' first='Rockford' last='Elite'] was one of the most impressive combo wing prospects at the Prep Girls Hoops Live. Her face up ability, downhill quickness, and long strides caused headaches for opposing defenders trying to match up. She finished full speed with both hands in the paint and protected the rim by blocking shots. Alivia is a prospect I saw for the first time this weekend and someone who should definitely be receiving college attention.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["336011"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_player_featured_image":912159,"_player_evaluations_3_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='336011' first='Christen' last='Banks'] 5-7 SF 2025 [program_tooltip program_id='713067' first='Michigan' last='Lady Playmakers'] is a prospect who has the fierce competitiveness you want to see on the court. Her explosive steps on dribble drives and ability to power her way through defenders is fun to watch. She has the athleticism to take a defensive rebound and beat the defense to the other end and score. Christen is determined on the offensive glass and finishes strong off two feet in the paint surrounded by defenders. Christen is a versatile player and one who can help teams at the next level.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["908941"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_player_featured_image":912157,"_player_evaluations_4_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='908941' first='Tiareyona' last='Holmes'] 5-8 W/SG 2025 Pride 21 confirmed at PGH Live why I believe she is a unique college prospect. She has impressed me since the winter high school season as a gamer with an extremely high ceiling because of her height, athleticism, and guard like abilities. T. caught fire from 3, knocking down deep shots off the dribble and the catch, she scans the floor in transition to find open teammates, and has an effective face up game to attack downhill and scored in the paint. Her length and vertical leap give her an advantage to rebound and block shots inside. T. is a wing/SG I think schools need to be taking a serious look at right now.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":[902915],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_player_featured_image":912158,"_player_evaluations_5_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='902917' first='Cleo' last='Milkey'] (2026) 5-9 W/SG [program_tooltip program_id='928192' first='Zero' last='Star Basketball'] had not trouble playing up in the 2025 division at PGH Live. Cleo used her long arms to pressure the ball and cause steals and played off the ball well by cutting to the basket. She drives hard past the defense and finishes contested shots in the paint.

She elevated up to snatch a rebound in the paint and worked for offensive rebounds. Alanna finished strong inside through fouls, knocked down free throws, and showed her efficiency as an outside shooter off the catch as she buried multiple triples from the corner. I described Alanna as u0022strongu0022 and she is someone who can play at the next level.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":7,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664d37a444cd3"} /--> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Upcoming Events</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:image {"id":896847,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/04/Northern-Michigan-Flyer-QR-Code.png?w=791" alt="" class="wp-image-896847" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">At the Buzzer</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Evan Bell</strong>&nbsp;is currently a scout for Prep Girls Hoops and Director of [program_tooltip program_id='923712' first='Prepare' last='2 Win Basketball'].
