When the young lefty scoring on straight line drives in the lane, she was hitting perimeter jumpers. She was a matchup nightmare with her height and perimeter skill set.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> ******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943391,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5789.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943391" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='828265' first='Leighana' last='Shelton'] ([program_tooltip program_id='713121' first='Lady' last='Brad Beal Elite']): The 5'9 2027 guard from Wentzville Liberty scored 22 points to lead her team to a win in the morning. And she did it in a very smooth and efficient manner. She was breaking off defenders for layups and pull up jumpers. The lefty was also working the high post area and making short jumpers with her opposite hand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943393,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5809.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943393" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='424724' first='Kerrigan' last='Guerin'] ([program_tooltip program_id='716233' first='Standout' last='Prep']): A 5'9 2025 point guard who will be playing her senior year at [program_tooltip program_id='715781' first='Link' last='Academy'] after starring at Class 1 Chadwick. She is a gifted passer with a nice feel for the game. She can see things develop before they actually happen. She was also scoring from all three levels.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943394,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5829.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943394" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='723024' first='Allyson' last='Smith'] ([program_tooltip program_id='715428' first='Real' last='Dream Chasers']): A 2026 guard from North Platte who was really impressive on the defensive end. She had good tenacity and excellent instincts as to what was going to happen. She made some great reads that led to steals. She is also a very good passer on offense. She's always looking up trying to advance the ball. Very unselfish.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943396,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5858.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943396" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='831254' first='Hadley' last='Meyer'] ([program_tooltip program_id='713416' first='Missouri' last='Select']): A 5'11 2025 forward from Thayer who was a tough matchup for defenders. She is a strong post player with multiple moves a nice touch. She was also stepping out a hitting 3-pointers. I really like her combination of power and finesse.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943397,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5913.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943397" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='515445' first='LaNicia' last='Parker'] (EWA 2025): The 5'10 2025 guard from Park Hill South was making things happen with her athleticism and high motor. She was slicing and dicing her way into the lane for numerous buckets. She excels in the transition game where she can really get out on the attack.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943402,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5755.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943402" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='886555' first='Zaire' last='Jones'] ([program_tooltip program_id='715824' first='Columbia' last='Supreme']): A 2028 guard from Hickman who was impressive in the early morning game with her scoring prowess. She started the game off with a transition 3-pointer and she also showed a nice float game along the baseline. She's quick and she can create off the dribble.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
