Legacy Region Finals: Sunday Live Notes

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Throughout Sunday I saw several interesting prospects play their hearts out and leave it all on the hardwood. While this was happening, I was taking some quick notes about what I was seeing, live-in-action. Below I highlight seven individuals and briefly describe what I saw out on the floor in their specific contests.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Thanks for tuning in and enjoy!</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#20 - [player_tooltip player_id='842241' first='Rory' last='Salvesen'] - 2026 - 5'9 - SG - WI Blizzard 2026 Hawley</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"When Salvesen lets go off the basketball on a shot attempt, it's a thing of beauty. Every single time it looks like a picture perfect attempt, no matter how or where she is taking it from. If you watch her shoot just two or three times, you can tell that she is an elite shooter in every aspect. Plain and simple. She was the best shooter I saw this weekend at any age level when taking all factors into consideration She can let it go off the catch or dribble from all three offensive levels and she understands how to play off of that as well if the defense jumps at her early on in a possession."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#4 - [player_tooltip player_id='910449' first='Elizabeth' last='Langebartels'] - 2027 - 5'10 - SG/SF - [program_tooltip program_id='713368' first='Wisconsin' last='Playground Elite'] 2027 National </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"A prospect that put together an impressive weekend. Her team is playing up an age level in this event and she had her arsenal on full display. Including hitting 6 or 7 three's in one contest yesterday along w/ rebounding and facilitating for others when the opportunities would present themselves. Langebartels length plays a big factor in her success. Defensively, she has quick strides and active hands to help her get a bunch of tips/deflections but she can also move and defend the block at the Post position if need be. It's whatever the team might need from her. Overall, she put on a good showing."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#20 - [player_tooltip player_id='874422' first='Miley' last='Wagendorf'] - 2030 - 5'0 - PG - [program_tooltip program_id='712778' first='Purple' last='Aces'] 2030 National </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"A great passer. Wagendorf is someone that demonstrates patients to a high degree. This weekend she was running her team's offense, waiting for the play to unfold in both the half and full courts, then hitting the open pass to a teammate for a clean look at the basket . She moved around the perimeter on both sides of the ball seemlessly, never seeming to give up on a play until the buzzer sounded or whistle blew."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#14 - [player_tooltip player_id='877581' first='Jordyn' last='Woods'] - 2029 - 5'9 - X - Wisconsin Lady Shooters 2029 </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"I don't know much about Woods but I do know that she registered in her team's first contest of the day on Sunday with 13 Points and 12 Rebounds. Woods over this event has demonstrate that she is a relentless rebounder of the basketball and someone that understands her own ability. Not to mention, she knows when to take chances and when to sit back so things can play out. This helps her score some easy buckets in the grand scheme of things."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#20 - Emma Shine - 2026 - 5'8 - PG - Minnesota Bobcats 2026-2 </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>"<em>A Point Guard with a high motor. Someone that can get her team riled up in a heartbeat. She plays with a lot of emotion and she finds a lot of success because of it. She has some better than average size for her position and she understands situational basketball at an efficient rate. This is someone that can definitely help you, without hurting you."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#23 - [player_tooltip player_id='874581' first='Callie' last='Kurczek'] - 2025 - 5'10 - SF - [program_tooltip program_id='715788' first='Wisconsin' last='Truth'] 2025 </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"Someone that always happens to be in the right place at the right time. Kurczek works hard off of the ball on both sides of the floor, leading to a lot of production. Offensively, she is the type that can screen and seal her opponent to the hoop for a bucket over a smaller defender or she can just post up near the rim, while on defense she can stick with small or bigger matchups. I saw her compete twice over two days and both times she stood out as one of the best on the floor between both teams."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#40 - Onxy Idoko - 2026 - 6'0 - PF - Forward Thinking Basketball 2026 </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"Onxy Idoko is a name to remember. This is the second time I've had the chance to see Idoko compete and both times she was outstanding at dominating inside the post area. Sometimes to a fault but that's okay as she is still learning and crafting her play-style. Idoko brings size, strength, athletic ability, and a high motor to the floor. She has a very quick second jump to out-rebound most and she had that on display this weekend. Defensively she is a player others have to worry about if they are going to the basket and that speaks to her mixture of size and discipline near the paint. This is one of the better prospects I've seen on the road this Spring AAU season."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
