Bella was last seen in the rankings appearing at the #80 spot, but in this new update, she's rightfully sitting at #22. Jumping nearly 60 spots is absurd for most, but Miele's talent calls for it. She has made it a point to leave an imprint in NEPSAC with her playmaking skillset. The control of the game is evident and the pace she plays with is dazzling to watch.

White has that aggressive flair that manifests as an all-league competitor. The athleticism jumps off the page, but there's a dexterous foundation that rounds her out as an overall player. Not only fast and strong, but she also knows how to play the game. White is a player that can overwhelm the defense with off the dribble shooting or powerful takes at the rim. Olivia can be of extreme importance on defense too. There aren't many players she can't match up against on the perimeter. What's most indispensable is that previously mentioned competitiveness that allows those cutthroat attributes to thrive.     [player_tooltip player_id='1057795' first='Athena' last='Thompson'] (2026) | 5'9 SF | Putnam Science Academy   Athena comes onto the rankings after not being seen in the last update. The 5'9 multifaceted wing brings a refreshing 2-way efficient playstyle that was highly successful overseas and has made it translate this season at PSA. Thompson is regularly guarding the opposing team's best offensive perimeter players. She makes it a tough day for anyone going up against her and she's even productive herself on the offensive end too. Athena has had multiple 20+ point games, including a 34-point one vs, Darrow so far. It's rare to see such a natural 2-way talent that's works in a functional fashion. Simply put, Athena is one of the best overall players and that's why she's sitting as the #10 player in the class.

Santiago has been one of the catalysts for the Mounties this year. The self-creation along with the distribution skills make her one of the premier guards in all of Rhode Island. Jaizzy is proficient in a lot of areas on the floor and she can carry a large portion of the offensive responsibility. Jaizzy's quick feet allow her to burst out in blazing speed, a quality that makes her successful on the defensive end too. She's scrappy and has plenty of hustle plays to the necessary 50/50 balls. Altogether, Santiago is a terrific talent in the class.     [player_tooltip player_id='1045928' first='Abeba' last='Gametchu-Walker'] (2026) | 5'9 SG | BB&N   Abeba Gamechu-Walker   Gametchu-Walker is quite the prospect. She's been working on her game and expressing herself as a player to know within the class. The 5'9 guard brings a lot to the table when it comes to versatility in the offense. She does this without being a ball-stopper or disrupting the flow. Gametchu-Walker has a crafty handle that allows her to get to signature moves in a pinch. She's long, athletic, has a great shooting touch and can even serve as an unsettling wing defender that makes impactful stops. The energy along with vigor played with makes her extremely provoking on the floor at all times.
