<p>Thursday morning, Prep Girls Hoops Indiana posted the Winter update for the Class of 2028. Typically accompanying updates are articles highlighting players on the move, newcomers, and just all-around general information regarding each position group. Below is a look at the top point guards in the state of Indiana, followed by some commentary on a handful of prospects who have played well since the Fall update.</p>

<p><strong><font size="+1">[player_tooltip player_id='999415' first='Ava' last='Richie'], Crown Point H.S.</font></strong><br>- From the moment I first saw her play in Junior High, the potential was obvious. All she needed to do was finish growing, and now that she's reaching her peak, she is performing at a high level. She has tremendous ball skill, the ability to shake defenders off of her quickly and create space, plus she has always been a good perimeter jumper (<em>37% this season</em>). Add to that her creativity, length, and ability to defend, and she's a fast-rising prospect.</p>

<p><strong><font size="+1">[player_tooltip player_id='992357' first='Katharine' last='Lehr'], Bloomington H.S. North</font></strong><br>- I think the thing I like most about Katharine, and especially for an underclassman, is that she doesn't try to be flashy and force the action. She is solid with the ball in her hands, she initiates the offense, finds open teammates, and she communicates fairly well. At the same time, she rebounds her position well, defends, but she can also knock down open shots. She is a nice all-around athlete, and she has helped North with her steady play each year.</p>

<p><strong><font size="+1">[player_tooltip player_id='1678153' first='Emma' last='Coffman'], Garrett H.S.</font></strong><br>- Emma is a new addition to our list, and if I'm being honest, she probably should have been added a little sooner. Despite her smaller stature, she plays 'big' and is a legitimate threat each time she takes the floor. She can fill it up (<em>15.7 ppg, 48 made 3-pointers</em>), she is a solid facilitator (<em>3.1 apg</em>), plus she is very creative. Additionally, she'll get in there and grab rebounds (<em>3.8 rpg</em>), and she's a feisty on-ball defender (<em>2.7 spg</em>) who can disrupt opponents.</p>

<p><strong><font size="+1">[player_tooltip player_id='990168' first='Jaida' last='Wheat'], Lawrence North H.S.</font></strong><br>- Jaida has a bright future, and she's starting to earn quality clock for the Wildcats. As a Freshman, she saw spot action, but this year, she is playing each game and in important minutes. She has grown a couple of inches, she's incredibly quick/fast, and she just goes out there, plays hard, and tries to produce at both ends of the floor. Jaida is a willing passer, a really nice on-ball defender, and she's never been shy about shooting/scoring it.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><font size="+1">[player_tooltip player_id='1678174' first='Kylie' last='Simpson'], Wheeler H.S.</font></strong><br>- Kylie is a really nice small school guard who could probably help contribute at bigger schools, if she was in that position. She has really nice length, fluid athleticism, and she has helped the Bearcats to 21 wins in the last two seasons, after they averaged just under 7 wins each of the previous four seasons. She is a capable scorer and is a capable perimeter shooter when open, but her 5.9 assists per game really stand out. Look for her this Spring.</p>
