<p>From Kentucky to Ohio to New Jersey and even some FIBA ball overseas, the following ladies made a big splash this month! It's worth noting that through their hard work and dedication to perfecting their craft, they have garnered much deserved attention from scouts, media and college coaches alike.</p>

<p>She showed off everything in her PG arsenal at Roses, the Midwest Summer Classic & back home in NJ at Championship Weekend. I dubbed her “Speedy Sayson” because of her ability to push the pace and beat everybody downhill. Her court vision was on point all month long as was her grit and sharp acumen. She helped tally points on the board for her team, from creating for herself or facilitating at a high level. Plain and simple, she executed out there!</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414293' first='Jaida' last='Guerra'] | Puerto Rico National Team</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>For the second straight summer, Jaida lit it up on the FIBA trail with her Puerto Rican U17 squad. In seven games, she averaged 10.4 ppg (good for 2nd on the team), 2.3 rpg and 2.1 spg (good for 2nd on the team). The Bryant commit look to impress her future college coach in Rock Hill this weekend.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='559132' first='Brielle' last='Alaba'] | [program_tooltip program_id='714654' first='NJ' last='Shoreshots']</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wherever Brielle went, she took her pretty, automatic mid-range jumper with her! She excelled in the Aqua pool at Roses, tallying up the points and putting her team in a position to win games. Long, quick and efficient! She had college coaches marveling at her form and ability to shoot from 15-18 feet at a high clip.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='651496' first='Ashley' last='Kreiger'] | Philly Rise</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's no surprise that just in the last two weeks, Ashley has racked up D1 offers from Penn State and Fairfield. She is dynamic when she hits the hardwood and imposes her will on both sides of the ball. She was tough to contain at EYBL Session 3 in Louisville and I had a front row seat game after game as opponents tried to figure her out. Her versatility is devastating! </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='559079' first='Kayla' last='Duncan'] | United NJ</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>From tearing it up in Fuschia pool play at Roses to hitting game-winning shots in Atlantic City, Kayla electrified every court she played on. Shifty and smooth, her shots fell in rapid succession and at a high percentage. She dusted defenders in the backcourt and created ample space for herself to go to work. She was a lot of fun to watch! </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='816416' first='Emily' last='Mattson'] | [program_tooltip program_id='714664' first='Team' last='Sharp'] </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As good as she was in Ohio, it was only a warm up for the heater she would go on in Kentucky at the National Championship! This girl torched team after team from every level! Quick to get ahead of the pack on the fast break, excellent creating from the mid-range and silky smooth pulling up from 3-point land. Ultra focused and locked in with a motor that just does not quit!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='601267' first='Mia' last='Washington'] | Empire State Blue Flames</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>After the performance she had at the Power 24 Finals, it's no surprise that Siena and Bryant have entered the chat and thrown offers her way. She brought that Jersey toughness to the Midwest and put everyone on to her game, earning 16U Honorable Mention in the process. A six foot guard with handles, speed, multi-level shooting prowess and impressive efforts on defense, she is the total package! If the goal was to dominate, then time to set a new one because CHECK!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='559076' first='Jayah' last='Curtis'] | [program_tooltip program_id='714664' first='Team' last='Sharp'] </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jayah had a busy July…busy lighting it up! FDU and Siena took notice of the incredible things she did in Kentucky and Ohio as she proved devastating game after game. She scored the ball at a high clip, put the clamps on defensively and made undeniable hustle plays to help her team win a ton of games over a three week stretch. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='564268' first='Toni' last='Pernetti'] | United NJ</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Toni was dominant during stints in both Kentucky and Ohio! With a devastating inside-out game and hard-nosed defending, she put on for her team and did it in a big way! Her team blitzed through Gold pool play at Roses with Toni doing a little bit of everything for her team. She continued her high level of play at P24, playing against the toughest competition in the field and holding her own in a big way. At the National Championship, she once again proved why she can be relied upon to guard just about any position, regardless of the size she gives up guard 4-5. Extremely hard worker with so much intensity!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='559134' first='Cali' last='McCoy'] | [program_tooltip program_id='714664' first='Team' last='Sharp']</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If this month was any indication of things to come, then Cali is poised for a breakout season at Rutgers Prep. She showed off her ability to control the paint area and have major production around the rim. Strong effort on the glass & excellent mobility getting up and down the floor. More impressively, she showed tremendous growth with her short jumper and mid-range game, popping confidently and consistently from 12-15 feet. </p>
