AAU Analysis: United NJ AAU 17U Power 24

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>More AAU content coming at you as June is here. We are weeks away from the start of summer, but things are more than heating up on the AAU circuit. United NJ AAU has gotten plenty of love from us over the course of this season, but it's time to analyze some different teams within the organization, continuing on with the 17U Power 24 squad.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='591478' first='Tessa' last='Lozner'] - Gill St. Bernard's (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good ball-handler up top. Someone who can get to the rim with relative ease and knows how to finish. Strong around the basket and not afraid to play with physicality, put up some tough takes in the paint. Controlled aggression that's allowed her to thrive in pressure-packed situations. Calm, cool and collected on the floor. She knows when to slow the game down or speed it up to throw opponents off-guard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='414424' first='Charlotte' last='Tuhy'] - Madison (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the leaders in the frontcourt among the class of 2025 and for good reason. Very smooth touch around the rim and a great feel for the paint and the basket. Impressive rebounder that will fight on the glass to keep possessions alive. As comes with the territory, a great rim protector as well that's constantly improved herself in preventing scoring opportunities down low. High IQ player with incredible upside and a high ceiling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='414422' first='Mia' last='Semioli'] - Chatham (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Do-it-all kind of guard that's shown great consistency across the board. Her passing is something we want to highlight as a key part of her overall success on the floor. She's racked up assists at a career rate and only continues to get better. Really impressive on the defensive front and a growing perimeter shooter. Crosses all of the boxes when it comes to an instant-impact player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='333348' first='Ella' last='Kreuzer'] - Chatham (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kreuzer hit a different stratosphere this past season when it comes to her offense. We were waiting for her true breakout season and it finally came. What a season it was and what tremendous growth she had in a number of different facets of the game. Her offensive numbers speak for themselves, but equally impressive has been her growth on the defensive end. She's a superstar talent, there is no doubting that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='583759' first='Savannah' last='Seawell'] - Montclair (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Double-double machine. If there is one phrase that comes to mind when talking about Seawell, it is 100 percent that. She's shown great production on both sides of the ball, a player that's really taken to understanding and thriving in her role on the floor. Seawell has shown herself to be every bit of an elite forward with room to grow and we've seen her both as a role player and more recently as the focal point of a team's offense and defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='583701' first='Francesca' last='Schiro'] - Hillsborough (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Whatever switchover happened from Schiro's sophomore to junior year, that growth was truly remarkable because we saw a completely different player in her last season. What first jumps out is her perimeter success, knocking down threes at a rate we've never seen her accomplish before. That set the tone for the rest of her offensive package, turning opponents seemingly inside out with the constant success she had.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='644270' first='Gabby' last='D'Agostino'] - Hun (2026)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While not as well-known of a player due to her playing at an independent school, D'Agostino put on scoring displays like no other as a sophomore, averaging nearly 25 points a game. She scores in bunches and scores in a variety of ways, whether that be from the foul line, knocking down shots from distance or hitting a quick midrange or two. She knows how to score, how to turn a game upside down and how to take over in big moments.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='559820' first='Addy' last='Platt'] - Pope John (2026)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Platt is part of this new era of the modern-day forward. No longer are they confined to the paint, making plays with the occasional midrange jumper and assists. The forward has become, in many aspects, the focal point of a team's gameplan. While listed as a guard, she's both a guard and a forward wrapped up into one unstoppable force. Great rebounder, great passes, excellent shot-blocker and an amazing scorer. The entire package rolled up into one.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='333318' first='Shea' last='Donnelly'] - Manasquan (2025)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While there are some notable names on this roster when looking at some of the most productive players in New Jersey in recent years, there's also up-and-coming talent. Donnelly fits the billing for that, a role player on Manasquan over the past three seasons with a great three-point shot and solid offensive package. Curious to see how she blossoms as a senior, but that shot along is plenty to be excited about.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
