New England August Recruiting Update Part 1

<p>It's awesome to see the amount of players who have not only received offers in the New England region, but have also gotten some college commitments as well. There are simply too many players in the area to include in one recruiting update, so we're splitting it up into a few parts to end the month with.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='998330' first='Brooke' last='Golden'] - Tilton School (2026) offered by Providence, Bryant</h2>   <p>Golden is really just coming into her own as a player, but has shown up and shown out on the AAU front. That's a big reason why she was able to secure two Division I offers over the last several weeks from both Providence and Bryant. The New Hampshire product has several D1 offers on the table and well-deserved from her, a crafty and creative piece that makes the smart play just as well as the spectacular play on the floor.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='481357' first='Bella' last='Owumi'] - St Mary's (2027) offered by Miami (FL), Louisville</h2>   <p>All eyes seem to be on Owumi, the rising sophomire at St. Mary's who has torched opponents left, right and center over the past year or so. Truly a special talent at 6-0 and someone who's shown herself to be a playmaker on the floor. Backcourt piece on the taller side that benefits tremendously from her size as a point/shooting guard. Allows her to be more multi-dimensional while playing.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Elyse MacDonough - Worcester Academy (2025) commits to St. Bonaventure</h2>   <p>MacDonough will be staying in the Northeast, though not quite in the New England region when she continues her basketball career at St. Bonaventure next year. So many places where she's shown herself to be one of the best in the region, and at this summer's 'A Shot For Life' challenge, she shot 82%, dialing it up from three especially. That efficient of a shooter in exhibition means just as effective in-game.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='278586' first='Emma' last='Olausson'] - Hamden Hall (2025) commits to Dartmouth </h2>   <p>Make it two college commits we're going to talk about in this article as Swedish standout [player_tooltip player_id='278586' first='Emma' last='Olausson'] is headed to the Ivy League and Dartmouth. She's playing for her national team already and has turned herself into an impact piece for them. Imagine now that translates to high school, but simply put, she's the real deal. She's a great player, a leader, a playmaker, game-changer, will do anything and everything to get a win.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='458187' first='Kylee' last='Shah'] - Middlesex School (2025) offered by Wheaton, Union</h2>   <p>Shah has proven herself to be one of the shiftiest players in the area at the high school level. Colleges are taking notice, most recently Wheaton and Union College, both offering the senior this month. She brings energy to the table, from her reaction after a big three to finding a lane and carving up the defense as she goes to the basket. Her three-point shooting is quite an impressive watch as well.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='295914' first='Bailey' last='Breen'] - Oceanside (2025) offered by Southeast Missouri State</h2>   <p>It's truly wild how many Division I offers [player_tooltip player_id='295914' first='Bailey' last='Breen'] has coming into her senior season, adding yet another to the mix in Southeast Missouri State. We can say for sure that she won't be at a disadvantage with choices because goodness, she's more than earned this going into the fall and winter. Easily one of the most talented players in the Class of 2025, a proven winner and a difference-maker.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='296986' first='Amber' last='Furtado'] - Ethel Walker (2025) offered by Worcester Polytechnic Institute</h2>   <p>Furtado added a new college offer to the mix in WPI. She's a taller forward at 6-2 and uses every inch to dominate on the court. Very impressive forward to watch, a mobile, versatile piece that controls the pace of play from the middle. She's someone who allows the offense to flow through her because not only are we seeing an incredible post player on both sides of the ball, but we're seeing a leader.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ryanne Gulbin - Fairfield Warde (2025) offered by Rochester, Union</h2>   <p>It's simple, the lefty can ball, from outside shooting prowess to great intent inside the lane, powering herself through the lane and to the basket. Gulbin had two college offers added to her portfolio in August in Rochester and Union College, giving her some added flexibility in decision-making for the next level. Love her physicality on the floor, not giving up on any play and finding ways to extend a possession or get it back.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='273940' first='Gianna' last='Nichols'] - St. George's (2026) offered by Le Moyne</h2>   <p>Nichols finally got the opportunity to add a much-deserved Division I offer to her portfolio this month in Le Moyne College. Excited to see this junior standout ball out on the court as she's done for Bay State Jaguars during the AAU season. Creative, athletic guard that can make some truly acrobatic plays on the floor. Drives downhill and finishes well at the rim just the same as she does with that smooth shooting stroke from deep.</p>
