<p class="text-gray-700">Five-foot-10 shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='832621' first='Reese' last='Jordan'] is having a strong start to the 2025-26 season for West Linn and showed up big as a standout 2-way player in all three tournament games at the Capitol City Classic. Jordan knocked down pull-up threes, finished strong takes to the basket, and won contested rebounds. She was named CCC Player of the Game in a first-round win against Bingham (UT) after scoring 18 points and being a vocal leader who played tenacious defense.

<p class="text-gray-700">Five-foot-9 point guard [player_tooltip player_id='832080' first='Kaylor' last='Buse'] continues to impress as a next-level playmaker and modeled leadership through positive persistence on both ends of the court every game at the Capitol City Classic. Buse tallied 11 points and 10 assists in the championship win against South Medford. She's strong on the bounce and consistently makes the right read downhill to create for others or go herself. Plus, she's one of the best defenders in the state who keeps her head and adjusts after the whistle doesn't go her way. Oregon's No. 1-ranked junior is averaging 15.2 points, 6.4 assists, 4.8 rebounds, and 2.8 steals per game this season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Six-foot shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='991248' first='Dyllyn' last='Howell'] had a strong showing at the Capitol City Classic as a consistent three-level scorer. Howell was named CCC Player of the Game after scoring 26 points, including three three-pointers made, against Nelson in the semifinals. Howell also led all scorers in the final against West Linn with 17 points. She drained the pull-up three, knocked down the turnaround jumper in transition, and finished the individual effort drive through contact and the foul. The Sacramento State commit is off to a great start this year.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Six-foot shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='832587' first='Taylor' last='Donaldson'] is an elite three-level scorer and can play inside and out. Donaldson was named the Capitol City Classic Player of the Game after scoring 27 points in a first-round win against Beaverton. She helped South Albany stay within reach of West Linn through four quarters in the semifinals. The Redhawks are the team to beat in 5A, and the Wyoming commit is looking to lead her team to a state title this season.</p>
