<p>In this article, I want to highlight another standout team from the Zero Gravity MA State Championship tournament this weekend. Like the <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2025/05/zero-gravity-ma-states-ma-huskies-standouts/">MA Huskies</a>, this team also took home the championship in their division (Division 1/2 Red). On Saturday, I made the trip to Dana Barros in Stoughton, MA, where I watched a very talented varsity DB Elite squad.</p>

<p>Congratulations to the team! There were many strong players (that I hope to cover in the future), but here are a few who really stood out to me:</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kirsten is an active, high-energy player. She pushes the ball in transition, scoring quickly at the rim or finding teammates. She also shoots the 3 and gets to the rim for a pass or easy basket. She's locked in every possession —her presence was felt and her energy gave her team a noticeable boost.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Maeve is a strong SG/SF with good size and strength. She runs the floor and finishes well, giving her team easy, reliable baskets in the open floor and half-court. A consistent contributor who plays within the flow of the game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Avery is an elite talent—and it shows. She's an excellent shooter who hit threes, pull-ups, and tough shots off the dribble. Her confidence is evident in every rep; she shoots it like it's going in and brings the same effort on defense. A standout from Oliver Ames with accolades to match her game. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Renee is a strong, physical combo guard who made her presence known on both ends. Defensively, she made life tough for opposing guards. Offensively, she impacted the game on all levels—knocking down threes, rebounding, and scoring inside and out.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Maeve is a composed, standout guard who consistently makes the right reads and keeps her team steady under pressure. She defends with purpose, communicates well, and doesn't force offense—letting the game come to her. </p>
