2029 Rankings Update: New Faces Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I had to adjust players and get the ball rolling in another way, and the best way to be in the mix is to be in front of me because with so many new "evaluators" popping up and my not caring what anyone else says, please remember 2 things, I have no agenda and<strong> #ThereIsNoMe</strong> but guess what, if I hadn't seen enough of you or seen you at all so the <strong><mark class="has-inline-color has-primary-color">PGH Freshman Showcase in Lake Dallas </mark></strong>would be a perfect opportunity so <strong>SHOW ME</strong> <strong><em><a href="https://events.prepgirlshoops.com/e/1585/register/texas-freshman-showcase">so register here</a></em></strong> and use<strong> COLSONPGH25</strong> for discount </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are some new additions</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1261102"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-688648457edbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#4</strong> Mathes made my Tip Sheet over a year ago, so catching up with her and seeing her "on the court" progression at the<strong> Queens of The South </strong>had me smiling <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/sade-mathes/">see evaluations here.</a></em></strong> Here's the kicker: her upside is scary because of her power and skill set </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1238054"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-688648457ee98"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#5</strong> Medlock impressed me years ago, and I saw the potential in what she could become. Guess what, she's bringing it in droves, and with her ability to score multiple ways, play on the ball defense, and show high BB-IQ, I wasn't the only one impressed as my colleague <strong>@playerrimidies</strong> gave her take <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/gia-medlock/">see evaluation here, </a></em></strong>as well as another <strong>PGH <em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2025/07/select-events-the-finale-strong-performances/">writer see evaluation here</a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1251679"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-688648457ef2e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>#15</strong> Baker is one of those players who impressed me from afar, and although I didn't see a lot, I saw enough, and when you factor in that she stands above <strong>"the magic number"</strong> and has a solid skillset, like her <strong>"hands and footwork"</strong> to finish, well, that foundation is huge. I also like her agility on defense, as she showed she could not only defend inside the paint but also step outside of it.
