She averaged 15.1 points per game last season for Salina South, which was almost two points more per contest than she averaged as a sophomore. She has back-to-back seasons averaging more than eight rebounds per game. She is also an accomplished volleyball player. Fritz is ranked No. 14 overall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='544027' first='Avery' last='Scott']</strong>, 6'1”, PF/C, Stanton County, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Scott arguably could be over or under-ranked at No. 23 overall in the rankings. She averaged a double-double over the course of 21 games last season, scoring 15.3 points and 15.5 rebounds per game. It was her third straight season averaging a double-double per game for the Trojans.

She likes to throw block parties and closes quickly on defenders. She finished with 39 total blocked shots as a junior. She averaged 7.1 points and 6.7 rebounds for the Eagles in 22 games played.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='827731' first='Lylah' last='Voss']</strong>, 6'0”, C, Logan Palco, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Voss is ranked No. 85 overall and jumped up eight positions in the rankings.
