This class has young ladies who truly get after. They bring a solid body of work to the hardwood, uplifting their teams to victories while putting up impressive numbers in multiple categories. What I like about this class is their ability to change the course of the game at a moment's notice.   We all know who the heavy hitters are in the class without saying their names. However, there are a lot of girls who have increased their stock based on their play here as of late. It's awesome to see their confidence grow and their style of play take off. All this does is make this 2026 class that much stronger. Here are some young ladies whose stocks are taking off especially with the second half of the second coming up.    I have written about her many times and the more I see this young lady perform, the better she gets. CB is a force down low. She can play with her back to the basket, however, striking from the mid-range area is where she is deadly. She can put the ball on the floor, shoot the mid-range J, but she is no stranger when it comes to putting the ball at the bottom of the net. She is long, so her size alone causes disruption especially on the defensive end where she blocks shots and owns the boards. A nightly double-double kid, she keeps getting better and better and is starting to attract more eyes from collegiate coaches.     Exciting to see her development over the course of the first half, this kid is long and is a menace inside the arc. She can score the rock from multiple spots on the interior, but it's her defensive abilities that bring a lethal injection of fear for opponents. Adit owns the boards, blocks shots, and can get physical down low. Look for her to continue on this impressive streak where she is a solid factor for the Lady Lions ball club down the stretch.     A shifty guard who is in conversation as one of the top guards in the city. Erica's game has evolved to where she is hard to contain. She has that “wiggle” to where she can get down hill to attack gaps, put opponents on skates, or pull from the arc. This kid is a workhorse and you can tell she is consistently working on her craft. I will say, her handles and her foot speed have gotten better because she is consistently beating her girl off the dribble. Look for her to continue on this upwards trajectory as her confidence grows and grows.     A go-getter who continues to get better. Her confidence started to rise last year and it has been climbing ever since. She seems to be adding to her game little by little, making it hard for opponents to slow her down. At first, she was a bulldozer, just blowing her way to the rim. Then she became a 3 point marksman, unleashing it from the arc. Now she has the ability to create off the dribble by shooting a one dribble pull up or a step back 3. I guess where I am going is this kid is just tough on the offensive end and will adapt to whatever the defense is throwing at her. She is a solid two-way player who is one of the best in her district.     An impressive kid who is solid on both ends of the floor. In every contest, this kid puts her best foot forward, getting after it as soon as the ball tips off. She is poise and picks her spots to exploit as she battles it out with her ball club. She's the focal point on the scouting report, but always seems to contribute solid numbers for her team. Her game continues to grow along with her confidence. She is a tough kid who competes every time she steps onto the floor.
