<p>After watching<strong> Clear Brook</strong> beat <strong>Alief Taylor</strong> in the <strong>Katy Tournament</strong> and<strong> Hightower</strong> defeating<strong> Shadow Creek </strong>in the <strong>Peggy Whitley Classi</strong>c, all of those teams are<strong> "In The Mix"</strong> from the <strong>Houston area</strong>, especially when you factor in<strong> Taylor </strong>knocked off <strong>Hightower</strong> last night behind <strong>Stock Rising [player_tooltip player_id='890958' first='Samyra' last='Blount']</strong> <strong>dropping 18</strong>, pay attention college coaches to someone who keeps it real</p>

<p>How about <strong>Dawson, Pearland, Summer Creek</strong> and let me throw<strong> Clear Creek</strong> as one of the possible sleepers? I'm just<strong> </strong>rolling with who I've seen or know is on the roster but alas, <strong>CE King </strong>could be the <strong>QUEENS </strong>heading to <strong>San Antonio,</strong> stay tuned on that. I branched out after hearing all of this buzz about Boswell and fortunately,<strong> Brewer </strong>had the game on <strong>NFHS</strong>, here ya go</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Woldai sold me before high school with her energy and feistiness on the defensive end so watching her develop her offensive game has been a pleasure. She's one of the most explosive guards in Texas while staying under control and she showed that last as she kept her team close earlier but she also showed her range and the "stop and pop" 3 looks <strong>UTEP</strong> ready</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Williams is taking the show on the road to Miami yet her high school encore could have her playing in San Antonio because she blended in nicely to help form an impressive defensive squad that makes me want to take a few road trips. She's long and athletic, that's the base, she scored off the dribble, played the passing lane, and saw the floor yet her "on the ball" pressure was also nice</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Massey left a lasting first impression at the <strong>#SimmieColsonClassic <em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/03/ncaa-division-has-several-next-up-simmiecolsonclassic/">see evaluation here</a>. </em></strong>Although I had lost track of her, I was excited to see her and add to the next updated rankings which she deserves. Her "hands and footwork" around the basket to score to start the game had me zoom the screen in yet she also gave me the drop step. Her first step was nice as she scored off the dribble, she also played the passing lane plus guess what, she's "long and athletic"</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Durrah rhymes with Hurrah, yeah I've said it before but she's going to be hearing the cheers for a long time. She came in and immediately helped keep the pressure going by reading the floor as well as seeing the floor. She also used her deceptive first step coupled with nice body control to score off the dribble but she showed me what was coming at that same <strong>SCC <em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2022/03/ncaa-division-has-several-next-up-simmiecolsonclassic/">see evaluation here </a></em></strong></p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Jackson may have me nickname the group the <strong>Jackson 5 Returns </strong>but nope, that won't work. What will work is her huge debut on the updated rankings but I saw her for the first time I believe back in<strong> April</strong> on the <strong>PGH Circuit<em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2024/04/17u-all-tournament-team-pghdynastyregionkickoff/"> see evaluation here </a></em></strong>and she was off the chain yet she unlinked the chain last night and scored multiple ways around the basket and went AFTA everything off the rim and in the air. Yeah, she also attacked and finished but watching her come from out of nowhere to play the passing lane had me hitting rewind. Oh yeah, she's "long and athletic" </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">O'Connor has me thinking of a Carroll as Those Were Days popped into my head when you had players coming off the bench to help keep the heat going. I know many of you won't get how I started this because it will be over your head so let me SIM it up, she too is "long and athletic" played the passing lane and did a good job defensively yet she also hit the boards and when you have serviceable players coming in ...</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Carrasco had me taking a look back and I remember speaking to her dad about her team not having a roster and I had to find out who her parents were to get her name when she was in the 7th grade. Her dad responded "I think it was earlier than that" and guess what, he was right <strong><em><a href="https://girlzprepreport.com/2018-match-up-city-invitational-tip-sheet/">see evaluation here</a></em></strong> No, I didn't call her a <strong>#D1Lock in the 5th grade</strong>, that came the second or third time I saw her but the poise under pressure and not cracking a smile sold me because I just know things, especially since we have the same initials. I also know that few players can see the floor and thread the needle in transition or in the set with either hand and watching her playing the passing lane and throw a blazing bounce on the money had me leave the game because that dropped the mic. She also scored off the dribble and dropped the long ball, ala "catch and shoot" </p>
