Kate Shryock Kate Shryock 5'10" | SF Hough | 2026 NC is excellent at showing off how fundamentals are important to winning basketball games. She anticipates passes on defense constantly keeping her head on a swivel. On offense, she uses shot fakes and jab steps to get the open look, and she knows how to make defenders shift to get the opening for her teammates. She’s aggressive attacking the hoop not backing down from any contact.
Highlights
Wynne Kinahan Wynne Kinahan PG Panther Creek | 2026 NC is always moving on offense looking for ways to be an asset on the court. She attacks the open lanes in transition being able to make a play off the pass, and she has some nice handles, too, that she uses to create her own open look. Her ball fakes are sure to get defenders off of her as she makes the jumper or she hits her teammate in stride as they flash to the basket.
Highlights
Teanna Keenan Teanna Keenan SF Ardrey Kell | 2026 NC is aggressive and fun to watch on both ends. She attacks the basket being able to make some strong plays at the rim. She makes the same strong moves on the other end being able to block shots and intercept passes. She doesn’t need to be right by the rim to score, though, as she has a nice shot from around the perimeter.
Highlights
Kaiya Bond Kaiya Bond 5'10" | CG Lake Norman | 2026 State NC is versatile on the court being able to guard a wide range of players whether she is keeping up with guards around the perimeter or protecting the rim from the block. She knows what role she is to play each time she steps on the court being able to fit right in with whatever group she is playing with. She constantly makes cuts knowing how to get the open look and use her quickness and outstretched hands to get some plays going.
