College Commitment Update – August 12th, 2024

We are at a time in the year where we see and hear about a lot of commitments or offers being received from the collegiate level. In this article, we highlight a few prospects from Iowa and Nebraska, who have recently committed to a specific place to continue on their basketball journey.   (Each Monday moving forward, we will continue to highlight recently committed prospects because of how many of them make their commitment during this time of the year.)   Thanks for tuning in and enjoy!    [player_tooltip player_id='311378' first='Ella' last='Moser'] is one of the state's premier shooters the past couple of Varsity seasons and she has recently committed to take her talents to Chadron State following her Senior year at CR - Kennedy. Moser is someone that can produce off of the ball with her catch-and-shoot ability or she can catch and attack her defender with a swift move while going toward the basket. Defensively, she has a solid mixture of athletic ability, quick hands, and fast instincts. She causes a lot of turnovers in both the half and full courts because of it and that is going to translate into the next level, as well as this next six months at Kennedy High School.     The Grand View Vikings just got another solid commitment from a talent out of the 2025 Class in Nebraska and that talent is SG, [player_tooltip player_id='766874' first='Addalyn' last='Rooney'] of Millard North. Rooney is going to be a vital piece to her team's success this next six months at North with the turnover that they are going to have happening. They do receive some prospects in return due to transfer but in the grand scheme of things, they lose more than they gain from the quick look of it. Rooney is going to be able to be a solid player at the next level when her time comes. She is going to have to work for playing time early on but I'm sure if she stays locked in, she will see the floor when she is final ready to roll.     [player_tooltip player_id='766453' first='Janessa' last='Mosley'] is someone that is going to be able to add onto her play-style as she continues to grow up. Mosley is coming off of a successful season with her Missouri Phenom - Iowa hub 17U team, proving to some collegiate recruiters that she could continue to work to bring positives to the hardwood. As of most recent, Mosley committed to Kirkwood CC to continue on after this upcoming Senior season at IC - Liberty High School. The Eagles are a nationally ranked team each Winter so as long as Mosley can find her place on the squad, that trend should continue.     One of the most talented and sought after prospects out of the 2026 Class in Iowa up until this point in the game is [player_tooltip player_id='582806' first='Trishelle' last='Miller'] of Bishop Heelan High School and she has recently found the place that she is going to call home following her Senior season, that school being South Dakota State University. Miller will take her swift talent to the Jackrabbits team, in hopes of being one of their main producers throughout her career there. From everything I've seen, her natural talent. and her prowess on the floor, she should step up and kill it. I'm not sure if she is going to see the floor immediately but once she does, it's going to be hard to get her off of it. That's for sure.     There is still two seasons until [player_tooltip player_id='582805' first='Karis' last='Finley'] is going to suit up as a Drake Bulldog but once she gets there, I'm sure she is going to be a staple of the program in more ways than one. Other than Finley's natural winning ability, she is a positive influence to those around her and she communicates well in every situation imaginable from what I've seen. With Grace Knutson now gone due to graduation at Cedar Falls, Finley will be looked upon BIG time this next two Winters. An opportunity I'm sure she is going to take the advantage of.     The most recent commitment out of the 2025 Class happened yesterday when [player_tooltip player_id='582830' first='Lynnae' last='Green'] of Shenandoah High School and the [program_tooltip program_id='712709' first='Nebraska' last='Attack'] AAU program finalized her future to continue her basketball journey at Nebraska-Kearney. Green is more of an underrated prospect out of Iowa for this Class with her natural size. She is a dominant force at 6'2, she moves well for her size, and she demonstrates production on any floor she is competing on, no matter the level of competition. I'm excited to see what Kearney can do these next few seasons at the collegiate level. They are getting a lot of solid recruits out of the Midwest so as long as their coaching staff comes up with a good strategy, they should continue to see more and more success as time goes on.
