Continue ReadingMany programs have gotten a jump on post-high school season ball, Kansas Elite being one of them. Coached by John Halliday, Kansas Elite 15U has put together a roster drawing upon young talent from both sides of the river. The team will be playing this weekend at the KC Clash, a Prep Girls Hoops Dynasty Circuit stop.
Taylor Forgy, 5’4″, G, Blue Valley High School (KS), 2028 – @Taylor_Forgy Forgy is an incoming freshman I look forward to seeing what type of impact she will have on Vikings roster next season.
Alexa Splechter Alexa Splechter 5'4" | PG Burlington | 2027 State KS , 5’4″, PG, Burlington High School (KS), 2027 – 2024 SIK 3A HM. 2024 Pioneer League 2nd team. Very good ball handler. Perimeter shooter with good bounce on her shot and overall athleticism. Shoots passing lanes well to go the distance. Mom recommendation
Macy Schroering, 5’9″, Blue Valley North (KS), 2027 – Schroering is a recent USJN Great Plains Spring Showcase All-Star selection. I look forward to seeing her play for the first time. With the log jam at the top of Mustangs roster caused by a talented ’25 class I will be curious if she will be one to emerge not that a couple ’24s have graduated.
Josie Pickens, 5’6″, Staley High (MO), 2027 – Pickens is player I look forward to seeing for the first time at the KC Clash.
Lydia Bonderer Lydia Bonderer 5'10" | SF Chillicothe | 2027 MO , 5’10”, SF, Chillicothe (MO), 2027 – @lydiabonderer Bonderer was a contributor off the bench for a 29-2 Hornets team that claimed third place in the Class 4 state tournament. She averaged 1.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and half an assist. The lengthy forward has terrific timely on shot blocks.
Kennedy Drew, 5’4″, Louisburg (KS), 2028 – Drew is an incoming freshman that I look forward to seeing that will be added to my unofficial watch list.
Rikai Cook Rikai Cook 5'5" | SG Shawnee Mission Northwest | 2027 State KS , 5’7″, SG, Shawnee Mission Northwest (KS), 2027 – Strong and solidly built Cook has a good feel for the floor, spacing, and where her teammates are. She shoots the three ball fluidly with little wasted movement from everywhere and is a good down-the-floor passer. Watch her to rip a couple balls away from opponents defensively.
Lexy Smith, 5’7”, Chillicothe (MO), 2028 – Smith is another young talent I am looking forward to watch at the KC Clash this weekend.
