<p>I released my top 32 players in my last article, complete with my top 5 prospects in the state. Here, the list continues all the way to the state's top 75 players.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*-Note - If their is an asterisk by the players name, it implies that top 30 was highly considered for that player.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>NOTE - These are not in any order other than they are top 75 for all classes. The top 5 in the first article of 30 players are the only ones in order. This is not rankings per say as it's all classes and no particular order. Also if you feel like I missed you, let me know. If I agree I will add you.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*33. [player_tooltip player_id='586861' first='Ellalee' last='Wortham'] - Complete guard who can shoot it from deep at a high percentage. She picks her spots and wastes no time getting to the basket. Just a great understanding of the game with overall top 10 talent in every skill category in the class of 2026.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*34. [player_tooltip player_id='580527' first='Sienna' last='Capelli'] - So much I see, I will say she has a high ceiling and should start to shine even brighter, being a lengthy point guard with great court awareness. Great rebounding, can shoot it. Basketball IQ is high. So is skill-level.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*35. [player_tooltip player_id='586268' first='Syesha' last='Simanton'] - One of the more impressive downhill games with her relentless attacking, combined with strength and ability to finish. She will keep coming at you until you stop her, which isn't easy.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*36. [player_tooltip player_id='584239' first='Payton' last='Mills'] - Excellent footwork on the block. Extended range to make the three balls a serious threat. Led Lynden to state 2A title and was named tournament MVP last season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>37. [player_tooltip player_id='827947' first='Cheyenne' last='Hull'] - She is big enough to bully her way to the basket, she can step out on the perimeter, and has a smooth game with fundamentals, not to mention skill that got her 1st team all league honors last season in the Big 9 as well as defensive player of the year. Quite the class with [player_tooltip player_id='928114' first='Isa' last='Garcia'] and [player_tooltip player_id='677261' first='Averie' last='Brandt'] being all league picka last season as well.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*38. [player_tooltip player_id='589887' first='Kendall' last='Mairs'] - Mostly known for her defensive heroics, we have an athlete here who is bound to be a consistent scorer next season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>39. [player_tooltip player_id='659455' first='Jazmyn' last='Legg'] - Excellent shooter, gets herself into mid-range game well. Stock is rising player. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>40. [player_tooltip player_id='502393' first='Roxy' last='Hollyhead'] - The quick and shifty point guard should be primed for a big season as the team"s go to scoring threat and floor general. Plenty of skills to like.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*41. [player_tooltip player_id='499170' first='Dylyn' last='Dress'] - One of the top threats from three in the state. She's got good length, and finds other ways to get on the stat sheet.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>42. [player_tooltip player_id='589918' first='Mackenzie' last='Shulz'] - Has quietly put together a great career at Richland. Can score it and rebounds. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>43.[player_tooltip player_id='730304' first='Reese' last='Roberts'] - Has that stretch the floor length as a 3 hitting the threes.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>44. [player_tooltip player_id='591765' first='Kahmiya' last='Bryant'] - One of a few guards who will help fill the void of losing Katie Fiso next season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>45. [player_tooltip player_id='590249' first='Lay'lee' last='Dixon'] - Superb athlete, she can go inside-out and be highly effective on defense and the boards.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>46. [player_tooltip player_id='592523' first='Alana' last='Marrs'] - A big part of those dominant seasons for Ellensburg winning back to back titles. She can protect the paint and score around the basket with a soft touch at the rim. Lots and lots of length.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>47. [player_tooltip player_id='547615' first='Paige' last='Citron'] - A heady guard, she plays the point as much as any of the three standout guards at LW. She is a good shooter and has to be respected, which is just one part of why LW will be tough to guard on the perimeter. A little shiftines around the basket as needed or in the open floor to finish.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>48. [player_tooltip player_id='591770' first='Eden' last='Sander'] - She is a crafty one, shows up in her mid-range arsenal more than anything. She has a knack for getting buckets, mastering that craft. The lefty guard will shoot off the dribble as far out as three, but weaving and winding her way for two is the the preferred option much of the time. She can guard multiple positions, and rebounds extremely well. Central Valley returns the entirety of their rotation and will be a dangerous team. Point guard [player_tooltip player_id='359194' first='Gabbie' last='Wilson'], who you'll hear more about soon. [player_tooltip player_id='751531' first='Keana' last='Gosney'], [player_tooltip player_id='1049372' first='Gracie' last='Lanphere'], and Draeyella Domebo are all talented returning players.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>49.[player_tooltip player_id='753708' first='Mackenzie' last='Handran'] - Can really shoot it and has good enough skills and as an athletic player, she can impact from all levels.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>50 [player_tooltip player_id='319094' first='Jayla' last='Keowla'] - Has led her team in scoring with some toughness from the guard position in the past. Looks to make a jump in the future.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>51. [player_tooltip player_id='584299' first='Hayden' last='Kaut'] - Shooter with length on the perimeter. Helped Napavine to the state 2B title. Maybe best shooter in 2B.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>52. [player_tooltip player_id='928125' first='Ashlan' last='Bryant'] - Stepped up and took home league MVP honors and her team to the 1A title game as a freshman last season. Had a great post-season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>53. [player_tooltip player_id='746759' first='Aubrey' last='Herrin'] - A very long and lengthy perimeter player on a team full of length. She is a three and also can make the three. Her game is best suited as a lengthy and versatile player with ability to put it on the deck.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*54. [player_tooltip player_id='587258' first='Emaunii' last='Smith'] - She has great length, agility, and can be a great shot blocker while she polishes offensive game. Has learned the value of establishing deep position on the block.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>55. [player_tooltip player_id='587635' first='Iha' last='Kasam'] - Iha has always been a great shooter who can score since I saw her in the freshman showcase a couple years ago. Will try to lead young Redmond team last season over the hump.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>56. [player_tooltip player_id='502385' first='Malu' last='Touras'] - Quickness, and more quickness which she often combines the dribble to get herself open. Can't leave her open, she can fill it up from deep.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>57. [player_tooltip player_id='660342' first='Grace' last='Renners'] - At 6'2 she will fire away from long distance as a wing player, also makes good passes, blocks/changes shots, more than a willing rebounder. Interesting prospect with all those tools.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>58 [player_tooltip player_id='580528' first='Jacey' last='Boesel'] - Deer Park had some talented guards in their run to the 1A title game. They'll be taking their run in class 2A this season as Boesel (2B MVP state tournament) in 2024 will team up with [player_tooltip player_id='659454' first='Brooklyn' last='Coe'], [player_tooltip player_id='928125' first='Ashlan' last='Bryant'], and [player_tooltip player_id='663650' first='Emma' last='Bryant'].</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>59. [player_tooltip player_id='580529' first='Giselle' last='Dollar'] - Tough guard who plays at a high pace, loves to get to the basket using her strength and talented skills </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*60. [player_tooltip player_id='751693' first='Kyairra' last='Roussin'] - A creative and skilled bucket getter with some shifty moves. She makes some tough shots that show off the overall skill level on the offensive end. Big time scorer last season for Mariner.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>61. [player_tooltip player_id='663641' first='Reese' last='Frederick'] - Another lengthy three who can shoot it from distance, should become more of a threat to impact the game on all levels </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>62. [player_tooltip player_id='746725' first='Olivia' last='McIntyre'] - Had a solid showing at 4A state tournament, including 21 points in semi-final. She was active and the talent stood out enough to get the call here. State track athlete in the 4x100.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>63. [player_tooltip player_id='592428' first='Ava' last='Marr'] - Ava is a four year standout in the ABMS backcourt. She has quickness off the dribble to get into the lane, can finish well with floaters and around the basket. Good in the open floor with a lot of speed to blow by the defense.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*64. [player_tooltip player_id='591764' first='Willa' last='Chinn'] - Willa has been quietly slipping under the radar as a big part of the Lakeside success the past couple years. She can play the one through three, has a knack for creating in the mid-range and can get buckets from anywhere. The mid creating has been her most go to offensive weapon, for both her and the others who may benefit from great floor game. Could be a big season for her with Mia Broom no longer around.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*65. [player_tooltip player_id='589901' first='Karsyn' last='Freeman'] - As with many on this list I considered her for my top 30 players. Over 20 points a game two years in a row. She has a full bag and improved the three point shot which makes her a threat to drop 30 any given night. Maybe 40 as the best guard in class 2B in my opinion. League rival [player_tooltip player_id='584299' first='Hayden' last='Kaut'] can make a case for that with her length being considered. Freeman has an excellent mid-range game. Two times state champion in track throwing the discus.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*66.. [player_tooltip player_id='584286' first='Grace' last='Richardson'] - Another that may well be top 30. Great athlete who fills the box score. Primed for a big season. Tough to keep out of the lane and she is strong and can play through contact.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>*67. [player_tooltip player_id='915997' first='Adrianne' last='Tupolo'] - North Mason - Player to watch after dropping buckets to the tune of over 20 points per game, and earning league MVP honors last season. She has those athlete- guard combos that jump out at you when you watch her play.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>68. [player_tooltip player_id='663074' first='Karsyn' last='Ripplinger'] - A nice point guard who wins, controls tempo, can shoot it well and most importantly takes care of the ball, while also showing enough quickness to get in the lane and create.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>69.[player_tooltip player_id='928120' first='Bella' last='Standish'] - The talented 2027 player could be leading scorer for best team in class 2A. Had an outstanding freshman season as a steady guard as an always lethal three point threat being a big part of her game. Fellow teammate [player_tooltip player_id='592524' first='Layne' last='Rogel'] could make me look a fool for not adding her. An underrated game from the athletic wing player.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>70.[player_tooltip player_id='588440' first='Maddy' last='Jewitt'] - Already surpassed 1,000 points last January, the 2026 player is highly efficient in all offensive categories.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>71. [player_tooltip player_id='317646' first='Layla' last='Senderson'] - Experienced, athletic and can be a three point threat and impact the game in multiple ways.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>72.[player_tooltip player_id='590581' first='Sophie' last='Buzzard'] - Elite level shooter for the defensding state 4A champion, she will up her overall scoring arsenal this season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>73. [player_tooltip player_id='585033' first='Zoey' last='Ritter'] - Extremely skilled player who balled out in a game I watched this summer. She will be a reliable 2nd option for Glacier Peak this season</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>74. [player_tooltip player_id='579811' first='Nevaeh' last='Parrish'] - Very talented and skilled point guard has helped put Wapato basketball back on the map, along with high scoring guard [player_tooltip player_id='659456' first='Trinity' last='Wheeler']. and 2027 [player_tooltip player_id='928116' first='Kobe' last='Johnson'] who also return. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>75.[player_tooltip player_id='677261' first='Averie' last='Brandt'] - As mentioned earlier with her teammates, she is also a great player in the 2027 class. She has overall talents along with the length. That would include great decisions, knows when to attack in the mid-range, can shoot the three, and get it to the rack. I strictly remember the decision making and play making skills watching her for the first time last summer. She plays at her own pace and can create by changing that pace.</p>
