2026: Top 10 Shooters

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shooting has become an absolute must have on the floor and so many teams across the state have shooters and this class has a variety of players in different positions that can score the ball from beyond the arc. Here are the Top 10 shooters heading into the season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#1 [player_tooltip player_id='839480' first='Gabby' last='Gomez'] || Cedar City ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gomez makes a habit of making some big time shots and from deep. She is a tricky player to defend because of her range. Picking her up to early can hurt you because she is quick and not picking her up could mean giving up a 3. Best shooter in the class right now. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#2 [player_tooltip player_id='812025' first='Talyssa' last='Nelson'] || Green Canyon ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nelson will surprise with her shooting ability. She is an excellent player beyond the arc and is a big time zone buster that you can slide up from the free-throw-line or have her space out the corners and wings. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#3 [player_tooltip player_id='796823' first='Maylee' last='Anderson'] || Syracuse ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Anderson is a smooth lefty shooter that sets up defenders very well to get her shots off. That lefty quick release is tough to see coming. She is a zone buster, especially at the top of the key. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#4 [player_tooltip player_id='796745' first='Kennedy' last='Woolston'] || Lone Peak ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Woolston is more than just a shooter but she can really light it up and if she was on a team that just had her out in the perimeter taking shots she could be a 50 three-pointes made with ease. Woolston has to do so much more and that has really built up her next level portfolio but she is a killer shooter and arguably the best shooter in the state. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#5 [player_tooltip player_id='879702' first='Emmy' last='Hales'] || Payson ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hales is another do it all PG with some solid positional height. Hale sis also a knockdown shooter. Hales has the ball in her hands a lot and that allows her to work off the bounce and shoot. Might be one of the better off the bounce shooters in the state. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#6 [player_tooltip player_id='808149' first='Mia' last='Johnson'] || Skyline ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson is another very well balanced next level prospect. She is a balanced scorer but she is also a player that can get hot from beyond the arc and that makes her one of the top shooters in the class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#7 Izzy Wyaskett || Clearfield ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wyaskett is known for how quick she is and her PG skills but Wyaskett is a very impressive shooter. With that quickness and her elite dribbling skills Wyaskett is able to us her wiggle to get open looks. It also shows you how good she is when the ball isn't in her hands. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#8 [player_tooltip player_id='796802' first='Alia' last='Baldassano'] || Alta ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Baldassano is a big time threat as a shooter. This is a huge quality that next level coaches need to be paying attention to. Baldassano is one of the best shooting lead guards. Big time value with her at the next level as a good shooting PG. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#9 [player_tooltip player_id='1230640' first='Charity' last='McDonald'] || Bonneville ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McDonald might be one of the best hidden shooting gems out there at Bonneville. It's time ot pay attention. She has next level shooting ability. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#10 [player_tooltip player_id='812048' first='Aundrea' last='Dennett'] || East ||</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>East looks to build on the positiives from last season. They will need sharp shooter to get more looks because Dennett can shoot. Very underrated player in the class as one of the better shooters. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
