Class of 2028 Rankings: The Risers

Inhofe made waves as a freshman thanks to her combo of athleticism and defensive abilities. She flies around for blocked shots, forces steals and plays with a notable edge. As a sophomore she has improved her perimeter shooting. There's still a streakiness aspect to her shooting, but when on she can fill it up in a hurry. What is particular impressive is she has improved her ability to get off jumpers while shooting off the dribble. This development makes her long term ceiling that much higher. In the short term, she's helped Berryhill to 19 wins and are a potential dark horse to make State in the always rugged Class 4A.     Steady improver, who has shouldered a big load in Class 6A as a first year starter. Stretches the floor consistently as a good shooter. Even with building clutch bonafides that include a go ahead three in the final minute of a win over Edmond Memorial. Along with the foundation that shooting gives her, she's fairly quick and willing to get her nose dirty on defense. Will poke out loose handles and make life tough on the opposition with on the ball pressure. As she gains more experience at the varsity level and this summer, expect her impact to grow.     One of the best scorers outside the Oklahoma metro areas, Gentry has been hooping for 5th ranked Class B1 Earlsboro. Just last night she went for 30 to advance her squad to Saturday's Regional title game. She's a knock down shooter from deep, who can not be left open. In transition she's fast but under control, with graceful movements to blow by or cross up defenders. Regularly records multi steal games. Eager to see Gentry next month if she and her team are able to navigate the road to the Coliseum in OKC.     Booker T Washington locked up their District Title and are set for another potential Class 5A State Tournament run. Daniels has been a spark plug for the Lady Hornets look to keep their strong tradition going. A performance last month against Norman highlights the combination of motor and unselfish play that makes her a promising PG prospect. Quickness and attention to detail on defense allow to forces steals and even close out and block an opposing guard's three pointer jumper. She then was consistently unselfish, handing out multiple assists. From transition passes to making the right reads in the halfcourt to keep the offense flowing.     The sophomore has consistently been a double figure scorer this year for a deep Caddo team that is a strong Class A Title contender. She's a high motor player, who along with her scoring often gets on the boards. And makes plays on the defensive end. Has a plus wingspan, which helps her with the aforementioned rebounding and steals. Last night she helped the Lady Bruins to a playoff win with a monstrous 23 points, 15 rebounds and 4 steals performance. Caddo is 22-1 now and Hookom will likely be one of the must watch prospects next month as the Class A State Tournament will help open up the new Coliseum.     Last month, Fairview shook up the Class 2A picture when they took down 2A favorites Dale. Hayes is a speedy guard who's defensive havoc is a key part of their surge as a 2A contender. She impressed fellow PGH contributor Johnny Vick over the summer and has backed it up with teams, steals and three pointers. The steals are particular impressive, as they'll come from being on the ball and taking the opposition's cookies. Or knowing when to help out and crash down on a driving ball handler. Playing the passing lanes. And even hustling back on defense to save two points. With good speed and commitment to defense, Hayes is a player who makes a true impact on winning.
