She was impressive during the summer with the MO Phenom-St. Louis (Truck) 17U squad. She is an excellent athlete with good length and mobility, which enables her to impact play at both ends of the court. She has a good post up game, which includes a nice turnaround jumper. She can also score on fluid drives from the high post. She also has a quick jump inside to collect offensive rebounds and putbacks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>******</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='865984' first='Madison' last='Lynch'] (St. Dominic): A 5'10" 2025 forward who is a two-sport standout who also excels on the soccer field as well as the basketball court.

I watched her during the grassroots season with Phee Elite and she shot the ball very well in the games that I saw her. I wanted to add a young up and coming player to this list and she fits the bill.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
