A ton of talent was at this year's Wildcat Shootout. Teams came from as far South as Orlando Florida to compete in the college showcase. In this article we take a Fastbreak look at undeniable talented candidates who may have gone under the radar.   [player_tooltip player_id='514630' first='Aniya' last='Hester'] Made a huge defensive statement with a coast-to-coast play after breaking up a fast break. Her ability to turn defense into offense stood out, and she was a major factor in transition with her hustle and instincts.   [player_tooltip player_id='743550' first='Janiyah' last='Blevins'] handles the ball well and does a good job of running the offense. Blevins has the quicks to get into the paint and the craftiness to shoot over the bigs with high arcs and floaters. Blevins athleticism and speed stands out on the defensive end where she is a good on the ball defender. The Junior guard needs to be on the rade this upcoming high school season.   [player_tooltip player_id='1178971' first='Camya' last='Hutcherson'] was impressive at the Wildcat Shootout. Her team was outmanned, but the point guard had a good showing: good handles, court-quickness and a nice looking shot. Hutcherson connected on several long range three pointers and also did a good job of running the offense and distributing to her teammates.   [player_tooltip player_id='1035278' first='Presley' last='Brinkley'] had some good moments at the border battle at the Wildcat shootout. Brinkley did a good job of shooting the ball, handling the ball, and getting the offense into their sets. Brinkley's maturity on the court will keep her team competitive in mostly every game. She is a competitor and her energy and execution on the court stood out.   [player_tooltip player_id='1046157' first='Siun' last='Crowley'] brought her trademark physicality to the game and showed versatility in the process. Crowley is a power forward who can run the floor and handle the ball like a guard. She can shoot from the three point arc and can get to the rim against other power forwards. At the Wildcat Shotout, Crowley set the tone defensively and didn't back down in battles in the paint.   [player_tooltip player_id='1264803' first='Lileigh' last='Jacobs'] played well in her backup role.  She hit the boards hard and had a few strong rebounds on both ends of the floor. the glass. Her physicality stood out, especially for her age group. Jacobs doesn't back down and brings toughness and strength inside the paint. She will be a player to watch this upcoming season.   [player_tooltip player_id='1136118' first='Reah' last='Saunders'] left an impression at the Wildcat Shootout. I overheard some coaches talking in the Media room about the “Freshman” guard who was strong, fast, and was creating havoc against his team. He commented on her ability to get to the rim and her dominance in the transition game. “Excuse me coach, the young guard is going to 8th grade and was in the Final Four in Lakeland this past season as a 7th grader!” In other words, Saunders will be a force for years to come in North Florida and in the State of Florida.   [player_tooltip player_id='1264820' first='Brielle' last='Collins'] was very active and heavily involved in the game plan. The young guard delivered at the Wildcat Shootout. Collins made winning plays on the floor and was a very good decision maker. She was a problem in the transition game and routinely put stress on the opponents transitional defense. Although a few jumpers didn't fall, her confidence and form stood out. She showed very good court vision and was always looking to make the right play. She will be a player to watch this upcoming season.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/06/DSC00544-crop-5142x3376-1751309173.jpeg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1264832" /></figure>
