Preseason Preview: Class 3A Preseason All-state Team

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The state of Louisiana is 48 hours away from all the large classifications tipping off play. Our preseason, All-state previews, continue as that start date gets closer. Today, we will look at our preseason 3A All-state team. Class 3A is also one of the bigger classifications in the state. Because of that, this preseason team was hard to construct. We have it down to ten very deserving young ladies. These girls are definitely representatives of what this classification has to offer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>1st Team</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='943302' first='Kennedy' last='Aldridge'] (5'8" | 2027 | University Lab)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='668594' first='Gabby' last='Guillory'] (5'7" | 2025 | Westlake)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='947837' first='Anna' last='Richerson'] (5'8" | 2026 | Parkview Baptist)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='943300' first='Brooklyn' last='Smith'] (5'6" | 2027 | Madison Prep)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Leah Varisco (5'4" | 2026 | Sacred Heart)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The first team in 3A is a group of players who give their all on the hardwood. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='943302' first='Kennedy' last='Aldridge']</strong> is one of the most versatile players in Louisiana. She is a three level scorer who can rebound and handle. The quintessential all-around player. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='947837' first='Anna' last='Richerson']</strong> is highly skilled mixed with hard-nosed and gutty. She can hit a three on one end and take a charge on the other. <strong>Leah Varisco</strong> plays the passing lanes as well as any guard I have seen. She is very good in transition as a finisher plus she is a spot up shooter. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='668594' first='Gabby' last='Guillory']</strong> is a monster on offense and defense. She embraces contact on both ends and is a high level finisher in the paint. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='943300' first='Brooklyn' last='Smith']</strong> is an elite combo guard. He can score, assist, and defend at a very high level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2nd Team</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='489572' first='Nia' last='Darby'] (5'3" | 2026 | Abbeville)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='484982' first='Ryli' last='Martin'] (5'8" | 2025 | University Lab)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kaylen Rabalais (5'4" | 2025 | Bunkie)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kassidy Rivero (5'5" | 2025 | Doyle)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Triniti Williams (5'7" 2026 | Jena)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The second team in this classification may turn out to be a special group. <strong>Triniti Williams</strong> is a defensive game changer. She reads passing lanes like a ball-hawking safety and knows what to do with it on the offensive end. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='484982' first='Ryli' last='Martin']</strong> is an elite level combo guard. Her ability to handle and score makes her a player to watch during the 24-25 season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='489572' first='Nia' last='Darby']</strong> is a guard who plays both ends at a high level. The lefty from Abbeville can shoot from deep, drive either direction, and finish with either hand. <strong>Kassidy Rivero</strong> is another guard who turns offense into defense in a hiccup. She is fast in transition and has the ability to spot up from deep. <strong>Kaylen Rabalais</strong> disrupts offenses and turns steals into transition scores. She is also accurate from three.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Scrimmages should be finishing today in 3A and the other classifications.
