Steals
Maynard is a player that is starting to really let loose and play with that athleticism that she has. She has the ability to really turn things up on the defensive end as she can move her feet. Once she buys into the physicality and contact she is going to take her game to new heights. She is projecting at the D2 level right now as a SF.
Highlights
Carlson is a good CG with size. Her size and skill allows her to defend multiple positions but also run the floor and not have to be tied down to one spot, she can move around the floor and she can also get in the post and work inthe paint with her back to the basket. Expect a big summer from her.
Highlights
Holdcraft would be a D3 or NWAC steal as she plays with a good motor and she can mix in her drives when she attacks with a little bit of spotty shooting here and there as well. She does have speed and she has more upside as she continues to refine her skills.
Johnson has a solid feel for the game. Her IQ is something that stands out and the way she can space the floor. She shot the ball well last season and she is a quality shot taker. She is projecting at the NAIA level or D2 level.
Highlights
Poulton is an athlete and a dual sport beast! This girl can get up and rebound the basketball and she has a chance to turn into a rebounding and block shot machine. She comes from a very athletic family. She has a chance to be really good this summer.
Lainhart plays with active hands and she anticipates plays. She does play with control and her ability to shoot off the dribble can make her a player you can’t ignore. She could be a small school prospect.
