Sophomore Prospects That Could Start To Sizzle This Season

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With the season here, there're plenty of players to cover, especially within the stacked '28 class. The prospects listed here are a few sophomores to keep an eye on. These girls aren't the ones to always get mentioned, but are certainly worthy of it. These 5 players are valuable prospects that're just getting started in their 2nd season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Use code&nbsp;MBG30&nbsp;for 30% off your first purchase of any subscription</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44","player_evaluations_0_player":["1242938"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":0,"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-691eeeefdaf03"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1242938' first='Alessandra' last='Cautilli'] (2028) | CG | Medway </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A player that's understands how to be effective and efficient while making quick reads. Alessandra is a floor general that executes plays; she gets players where they need the ball at the right time plus there's a knack for exploiting holes in the defense with upper-class vision. One understated part of her game is her ability to get on the boards as a guard. There aren't many guards that're able to crash the glass the way she does and then proceed to start the break. These plays regularly lead to easy transition points. It wouldn't be surprising to hear about Cautilli making some serious noise this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44","player_evaluations_0_player":["1316680"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":0,"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-691eeeefdaf22"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A creator that exudes confidence on the floor.

The South Community guard will be a sturdy contributor this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44","player_evaluations_0_player":["1005126"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":0,"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-691eeeefdaf34"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1005126' first='Lily' last='Mirante'] (2028) | 5'7 Guard | Drury </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mirante has shown that she can be effective from deep and picks he spots well getting to pullups, floaters or soft finishes around the rim. She has a very nice touch now, so as she builds on her physicality as well as her ballhandling skills Mirante could become dangerous as an overall scorer. Lily also can be utilized up in the press; her anticipation skills help her gather steals quickly. This season will be a big one for her and she has what it takes to stand out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44","player_evaluations_0_player":["1315032"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":0,"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-691eeeefdaf46"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1315032' first='Ella' last='Beshel'] (2028) | PG/SG | Melrose </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ella can serve as a nice asset and provide value to the lineup with her steady 2-way play.

The natural instincts along with her readiness to disturb strong ballhandlers must be spoken for. However, Micheletti has a nice offensive game too.
