Small School Standouts We Saw in June

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Girls Hoops Missouri takes one more look at some excellent players from the smaller schools that we saw during our June Team Camp Tour. These talented young ballers may be a little under the radar, but they have been putting in work.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":673781,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/Kenna-Oliver.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-673781" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='691951' first='Kenna' last='Oliver'] (Canton): A 5'10" 2027 guard who can cause matchup problems for defenses with her height and versatile skill set on offense. She is a capable ball handler and passer who can score on the drive and hit perimeter shots. She can also score in the paint on a variety of moves.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":917856,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/06/IMG_3045.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-917856" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='982990' first='Peyton' last='Beamer'] (Community R-6): A 5'6" 2026 point guard who I enjoyed watching at the Higbee Shootout. She is a dynamic player in the open court with her speed and quickness and ability to attack. She can also pull up at hit the 3-pointer on the move. She is just as active on the defensive end with her quick hands and anticipation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":931410,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/06/IMG_4741.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-931410" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1245283' first='Piper' last='Jacobs'] (East Buchanan): A 5'9" 2027 point guard who was very impressive at the Lindenwood Team Camp. She makes good use of her height by putting constant pressure on defenders with her driving ability. She has a good crossover and spin move to break down a defender to get into the lane. She is also a good finisher with excellent body control in the lane.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":924544,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/06/IMG_4208.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-924544" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sydney Binsbacher (Clark County): A 6'0" 2028 forward who is a talented under the radar player that I came across at the Ladybird Shootout at South Shelby. She is strong in the post with her size, but she also has an excellent skill set on the perimeter. Not only can she shoot it from 3-point range, she was her team's primary ball handler and facilitator on offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":917048,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/IMG_3025.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-917048" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kierstyn Rockett (Higbee): A 5'9" 2027 wing player who has excellent athleticism and a versatile skill set. She rebounds the ball well and she can take it coast to coast on the dribble. She has a chance to really break out next season as she can impact the game at both ends of the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
