Prep Girls Hoops Missouri released its newly updated Class of 2026 rankings this week. Here is a look at a group of guards and wings to were big stock risers in the updated rankings.     [player_tooltip player_id='351753' first='Ava' last='Vanecek'] (Webster Groves): A 5'9" guard who has done an excellent job of transforming from a catch and shoot 3-point specialist as a freshman to an all-around offensive weapon going into her senior year. She can attacks close outs to get into the lane off the dribble and score and draw fouls. She also plays moves well off the ball and reads defenses well while also becoming a confident decision maker with the ball in her hands. She has given a commitment to Lincoln University.     [player_tooltip player_id='983010' first='Audrey' last='Arnold'] (Harrisburg): A 5'10" point guard who will be playing her senior year at Harrisburg after three strong years at Fulton. She has good size for a point guard and she is excellent at both facilitating offense and getting buckets. She can pass her teammates open with her very good court vision. She is also a three-level scorer who gets downhill on the drive very well. She can also shoot it from 3-point range. She has already given a commitment to Drury University.     [player_tooltip player_id='409884' first='Amya' last='Porchia'] (Francis Howell): A 5'5" point guard who transferred to Francis Howell as a junior and had a big impact in helping lead the Vikings to a conference championship. She is a dynamic 3-point shooter with good quickness and ball handling ability. As a junior, she averaged 10 points a game while making 40 percent of her 3-point attempts, which is excellent because of the high volume of shots she took from long distance. She made 71 triples last season.     [player_tooltip player_id='982975' first='Lorelai' last='Hunziker'] (Harrisburg): A 5'9" guard from Mid Missouri who is an excellent all-around player as well as a very good athlete. She is a very capable offensive scorer who can knock down 3-pointers and also wheel and deal in the lane for buckets. She has already received multiple small college offers after a strong summer with the [program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom'] 17Us.     [player_tooltip player_id='624828' first='Karagyn' last='Cooper'] (Boonville): A 5'8" guard from the Mid-Mo area who was one of the best perimeter shooters that I watched. In one tournament game I watched, she made six 3-pointers in one half of basketball. At another different tournament, she made five 3-pointers in a half. She has a quick release and a pure shooting strong from long distance. She has received multiple offers from small colleges.     [player_tooltip player_id='723024' first='Allyson' last='Smith'] (North Platte): A 5'7" guard who is an excellent all-purpose player who helps her team in multiple ways. She can score, rebound, facilitate offense and defend. Whatever the team needs. She has been a mainstay performer for the [program_tooltip program_id='715428' first='Real' last='Dream Chasers'] during the summers of her high school career. She has received numerous small school collegiate offers. As a junior, she averaged 10 points, four rebounds, two assists and three steals a game in helping lead North Platte to a district championship and a berth in the Class 2 state quarterfinals.
