<p class="text-gray-700">From the very start of the showcase, Pierskalla displayed her versatility, showing she could operate both on the perimeter and in the post. She demonstrated solid footwork and vision, making tough interior passes to cutting teammates look effortless. Playing with her head up, Sydney controlled the pace of the game and refused to let the defense speed her up – a sign of maturity and confidence in her skillset.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hands down, Jenkins (pictured above) is at her best when she puts her head down and attacks the paint. During the 3v3 portion of the event, Zaida displayed her versatility by knocking down shots from beyond the arc, but once the game opened up, she really shined. She consistently put pressure on the defense, collapsing them into the paint before finding wide-open teammates – or simply powering through contact to finish at the rim herself. The work she's clearly put in behind the scenes shows in her confidence and polish. This season has the potential to be a true coming-out party for this next-level prospect.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Sampson is every coach's kind of player – she just goes out and competes. At the Sophomore ID Camp, she played with intensity on the defensive end, kept the ball moving, and gave maximum effort every minute she was on the floor. Her court awareness stood out, as she consistently recognized where the ball needed to go. On several occasions, she attacked the lane with the intent to score but unselfishly dished to a teammate with a better look at the last second. As she continues to refine her skill set and define her identity as a player, one thing is clear: Faith will make any team she's on better.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Kenley was easily one of my favorite players to watch during the showcase. The 6'3" post out of Andover has a great feel for the modern game and it shows in the work she's clearly put into her ball handling and perimeter shooting. She showed no hesitation putting the ball on the deck from the outside and confidently knocked down a few triples with smooth form. Of course, her bread and butter remains the post where she used her strong frame and quick footwork to punish smaller defenders. With her inside-out versatility, Kenley is poised to be a matchup nightmare for opposing teams this upcoming season.</p>
