She scored the ball very well around the rim, as there was little to no resistance to her physical attacks to the rim. She is long, was active on the glass, and showed to be a rim deterrent on defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041018,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-NaKyrie-Tolbert-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041018" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Na'Kyrie Tolbert</strong> (5'2/CG/2027/Hueytown HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Kyrie_tolbert</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Na'Kyrie is a two-way talent who impacted the game with her aggressive play. She applies a lot of pressure as an on-ball defender and forces ball-handlers into uncomfortable situations. Offensively, she was tough at the lead guard spot as a pass-first PG. She was constantly breaking down the defense and making plays off the bounce by getting the ball into the hands of her scorers. She is lightning-quick, and defenders found it extremely hard to keep her in front of them. She is small, but she brings a lot to the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041019,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-McKenzie-Word-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041019" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>McKenzie Word</strong> (5'8/SG/2027/Russell County HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: _luhkenzie</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @KenzieWor</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">McKenzie is a solid off-guard who spent a lot of time at the lead guard spot running the show. She has a nice pace to her game and plays under control. She has really good court awareness and reads the defense really well. She kept her team in transition as she methodically pushed the pace. She competes on both ends of the floor and makes plays with her grit to just outwork her opponents. Her stock is on the rise with what she showed during camp.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041020,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Sloan-Williams-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041020" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1039010' first='Sloan' last='Williams']</strong> (5'7/CG/2026/Hazel Green HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: Sloan.is.golden2</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @its_sloan2&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sloan had it going early and never took her foot off the pedal.&nbsp; She is a threat on the offensive end whenever she touches the ball. She can score off the bounce and from the perimeter. She is creative on the offensive end of the floor makes plays for her teammates, and makes her teammates better. She is able to penetrate at any moment as she has a quick burst off the bounce, and she kept pressure on the defense throughout the day. She is comfortable and confident on the perimeter and was among the top backcourt prospects.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041021,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Harper-McCulley-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041021" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1038996' first='Harper' last='McCulley']</strong> (5'7/CG/2027/Buckhorn HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: harp_mcculley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @HarperMcculley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Harper is a backcourt talent with a good IQ. She plays very poised and does a good job making the right reads. She is very cerebral and can control the game with her instincts, her ability to run the offense, and her ability to control the tempo. She is an unselfish team player who looks to get others involved and does a good job getting the rock to her teammates with her passing skills. She is young but plays with a lot of composure and maturity.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041022,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Lily-Robinson-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041022" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1039004' first='Lily' last='Robinson']</strong> (5'9/CG/2026/Marion County HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: lilyrobnson</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @lilyrobnson&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Lily is a downhill attacking guard who was aggressive in her attacks. She played in straight lines and showed her ability to finish in traffic and through contact. She is at her best when she is able to play off the bounce, get downhill, and collapse the defense. She had outstanding energy throughout the day as she competed on both ends of the floor. Even though her scoring production was sketchy, she was able to keep her intensity, determination, and focus.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041024,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Adrienne-Hunt-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041024" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1038987' first='Adrienne' last='Hunt'] </strong>(6'1/F/'26/Tuscaloosa County) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @LaneyDe_20</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Adrienne came out of camp with rising stock. She has positional size and length but has to continue to get stronger with her thin frame. She showed a mature floor game and a skillset that allows her to make plays off the bounce as well as when she is actively moving without the ball, looking for scoring opportunities. She scores from all levels, goes to the glass, and uses her length to be a disruptive defender.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041025,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Ryan-Bardenwerper-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041025" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1039009' first='Ryan' last='Bardenwerper']</strong> (6'0/SG/2026/Northridge) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: rbardenwerper26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">I really liked Ryan's game and the impact she had across the stat sheet. She is a gamer who isn't afraid to match up against other top players. Ryan understands how to use her solid frame to drive, rebound, and defend, which provides an impact on both ends of the floor. Her drive game and play on the inside at the rim create fouls. She also proved to be a monster rebounder and defender. One thing is for sure: Ryan has a winning mentality.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1041026,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/10/PGH-Hannah-Smith-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1041026" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1041027' first='Hannah' last='Smith']</strong> (6'0/Wing/2026/Montgomery Catholic)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: hannahsmith_2026</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @2026_hannah</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Hannah left camp having cemented herself as one of the best who participated throughout the day. She was one of the most versatile athletes in attendance and was able to show off her scoring prowess from all levels. She has a good build and was able to impose her will in pretty much all of her one-on-one match-ups. She looks to dominate each possession and showed why she is one of the top players in the state, regardless of class. If she can add a few more tools to her toolbox, hone her handles, and be more efficient with her long ball, there is no questioning where she can be by this time next year.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
