<p>On Wednesday, May 15th, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit [program_tooltip program_id='715695' first='Michigan' last='Vice'] 2025 practice at Brighton High School. [program_tooltip program_id='715695' first='Michigan' last='Vice'] has many KLAA and LVC prospects who I was very impressed by during the 2023-24 high school season and I relished the opportunity to evaluate them in a different environment. This team is loaded with NAIA, D3, and JUCO prospects that have a high floor and high ceiling as recruits. Head Coach Jason Fannon has worked with these girls for years and their respect for him is evident during practice. The girls were dialed in during coach-led walkthroughs and very receptive to feedback. Coach Fannon mentioned the importance of catching to shoot; looking to score first, and then looking to pass or dribble. What I appreciated about Fannon's instruction was how precise and direct his instruction was when he explained the task to the girls. Fannon has numerical goals for the team's drills and individual goals for their shooting. With the boy's team dunking and warming up on the adjacent court, none of the girls were distracted during walkthroughs; they were all fixated on their coaches. One of my favorite moments of the experience was after practice when I had the privilege to sit down and discuss elements of the recruiting process with the team. The girls were glued in and demonstrated eye contact with the utmost maturity and courtesy. My challenge to all high school girls and parents is to advocate for the women's game and increase perspective about the next level by attending D2, NAIA, D3, and JUCO games. I was so greatly encouraged that girls on the team frequently watch the WNBA. This team works extremely hard during practice and the proof is in the pudding! [program_tooltip program_id='715695' first='Michigan' last='Vice'] 2025 will be one of our top 2025 teams at the Prep Girls Hoops Live in Mount Pleasant on May 18th and 19th. If you are not recruiting these girls as an NAIA, D3, and JUCO coach you should check them out this weekend at our event.</p>

Brooke was one of the most fundamentally sound defenders on the court. She had an excellent closeout with a wide base and great technique, while denying/redirecting cutters off the ball. Brooke caught fire during the shooting session, drilling 4 shots in a row including two 3's from up top. Brooke demonstrated next level awareness by driving and kicking the ball out to an open teammate. During the scrimmages, Brooke drove and scored on a drive with her left and used a spin dribble 360 move to score with her left at the rim (MOI, Pre-Med).","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":910533,"_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1004394' first='Kayla' last='Matties']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Hartland","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"[program_tooltip program_id='715695' first='Michigan' last='Vice']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cstrongu003e[player_tooltip player_id='1004394' first='Kayla' last='Matties']u003c/strongu003e showed the leadership and skills coaches want to see at the next level for [program_tooltip program_id='715695' first='Michigan' last='Vice'] 2025 at practice on Wednesday. Her and Ava were the first girls in the gym and she used her own basketball to warm-up before practice. She finished her layups moving full speed in the full court passing segment. During 3 v 3's, Kayla talked the loudest and most often, she deflected passes on defense, and buried a deep wing jumper. She demonstrated skilled footwork by using a forward pivot step through in the paint, made an assist, and hit a contested wing jump shot. Kayla was an efficient shooter making a high percentage of shots on the move from different spots during the shooting segment. She scored a wing 3 and made an impressive drive reverse pivot kick out assist during the scrimmage.

At practice Wednesday, she demonstrated how her hard work has led to a combination of offensive skills that compliment her exceptional athleticism. Aliah had me shaking my head twice in disbelief as she paused, then exploded with a left dribble by her defender to score a contested right hand scoop around an attempting shot blocker. She elevated to block a shot in the paint on defense and elevated to finish off two on offense.

Coach Fannon let me know that Macie is committed to GVSU for Goalie, which shows just how much she loves the game of basketball to be traveling this spring. Macie was praised by coach for her defense and she demonstrated why by communicating screens and walling up to force a miss in the paint. She showed solid footwork to catch an entry pass and score with a drop step. Macie extended her range up top to knock down a 3 and she scored a free throw jumper off the catch.

She was one of the highest percentage shooters during the relocation 3 point shooting drill.

She scored layups effectively with both hands while running at full speed during the transition passing drill. Ava throws quick passes with soft hands and even used a no-look dish during the 3 on 2 drill. Ava works hard defensively, she denied the post entry and deflected the pass away for a steal; she aggressively guarded the ball to deflect and steal another pass. Ava attacked a defender then created space with her dribble to score a mid-range pull up jumper and had the body control to attack on a drive and leap up over the top to make a pass for an assist. Ava scored multiple mid-range jumpers, hit a wing 3, and blew by her defender with a left drive to draw a foul during the scrimmage.

Reece showed determination as she worked laterally to cut off a dribble drive and jumped up to deflect the pass. She missed her shot and outworked everyone for the offensive rebound put back.

On Wednesday, May 15th, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit
Michigan Vice
2025 practice at Brighton High School.
Michigan Vice
has many KLAA and LVC prospects who I was very impressed by during the 2023-24 high school season and I relished the opportunity to evaluate them in a different environment. This team is loaded with NAIA, D3, and JUCO prospects that have a high floor and high ceiling as recruits. Head Coach Jason Fannon has worked with these girls for years and their respect for him is evident during practice. The girls were dialed in during coach-led walkthroughs and very receptive to feedback. Coach Fannon mentioned the importance of catching to shoot; looking to score first, and then looking to pass or dribble. What I appreciated about Fannon's instruction was how precise and direct his instruction was when he explained the task to the girls. Fannon has numerical goals for the team's drills and individual goals for their shooting. With the boy's team dunking and warming up on the adjacent court, none of the girls were distracted during walkthroughs; they were all fixated on their coaches. One of my favorite moments of the experience was after practice when I had the privilege to sit down and discuss elements of the recruiting process with the team. The girls were glued in and demonstrated eye contact with the utmost maturity and courtesy. My challenge to all high school girls and parents is to advocate for the women's game and increase perspective about the next level by attending D2, NAIA, D3, and JUCO games. I was so greatly encouraged that girls on the team frequently watch the WNBA. This team works extremely hard during practice and the proof is in the pudding!
Michigan Vice
2025 will be one of our top 2025 teams at the Prep Girls Hoops Live in Mount Pleasant on May 18th and 19th. If you are not recruiting these girls as an NAIA, D3, and JUCO coach you should check them out this weekend at our event.
