Athletics Academy-Max 16U [2026]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson immediately showed she could knock down shots, including the long ball all “catch and shoot “ yet she used her athleticism on defense and played the passing lane well</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jasmine Helm-5'1 G (Lebanon Trail) P.U.S.H. Athletics Academy-Max 16U [2026]</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Helm kept the heat coming on the defensive end and showed she could go constantly on both ends.
