Class Of 2026 Updated College Prospect Rankings: Major Leaps

<!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Entering their first year as upperclassmen, these players are being evaluated from a stronger lens. College offers are a major key, but also size, growth, and the ability to do more than score the ball are things that hold value. This year is a year where, if the D1 offers are slowing down, that is a sign of where college coaches see your talent being the most effective.</strong></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Below are 5 players who take major leaps in the rankings </h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["773817"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-675b23a7b0fa5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">LT is one of the best five teams in the state, and Gwen is a major reason why. She can adapt her game to any situation and find ways to be effective. She has sharpened her game in a multitude of ways, and it's showing this year. On both sides of the ball, she is active, aware, and willing to make the right plays. The potential is there. Coaches need to have this kid on their radar.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["615355"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-675b23a7b10ba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Parker has been CONSISTENT. From a scoring standpoint, she's been able to do it all from every spot on the court. Her vision and pure understanding of how this game is played is there, and the IQ is constantly growing—her upside is major. A D1 program will be getting a player that can bring immediate value.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["625058"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-675b23a7b101f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lee has had countless moments over the past 5-6 months where she has shown her dominance as a 4/5. Whether on the boards or from a defensive standpoint, she has made her mark as a top post player in this class. Offensively, she is good for 16-24 points on any given night. Could make a great 1-2 punch with a high energy guard in college. High potential.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["515521"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-675b23a7b106e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Goins has a certain twitch and confidence to her game that players her size normally don't have. She's aggressive, fluid, and has no type of fear when heading to the basket. Defensively, she shows energy as well. She might be undersized, but the length is there. She can be a problem on both sides of the ball.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["514036"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-675b23a7b1103"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Evan's covers everything you need out of a player. Her defense is key to why she's so adaptable in every situation. She completely disrupts games and can frustrate the best player from any team. She's smart, patient, coachable, and has tremendous work ethic. Her recruitment will be one to pay attention to over these next couple of years. Someone could get a major steal.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
