She is an exciting bucket-getter with good quickness and the ability to score at all three levels. She comes off screens well and she can create off the dribble to break down defenders. As a junior, she averaged 17.4 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.9 steals while hitting 61 3-pointers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='808391' first='Elecea' last='Norman'] (Liberty): A 5'6" point guard who will be a four-year starter for Liberty. The young lefty impacts the game at both ends of the court with her tremendous speed and quickness. She is a blur in the open court in transition and she gets downhill on the drive on the straight line. She is also tenacious on the defensive end with the ability to shoot the passing lanes for steals. As a junior, she averaged 13.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, and three assists a game in leading Liberty to an 18-10 record. She has also received offers from multiple Division II schools.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1124621' first='Reminyss' last='(Remi) Grant'] (Staley): A 5'6" guard who has worked her way into the starting lineup for the Falcons, who have been one of the top teams in the state in the past few years. She is an offensive threat with quickness and a nice burst to beat defenders off the dribble. She can also hit open perimeter shots. As a junior, she averaged six points, two rebounds and three assists in helping Staley to a berth in the Class 6 state championship game. She will play an even bigger role as a senior next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1117244' first='Abby' last='Walsh'] (Ursuline Academy): A 5'8" point guard who plays a solid all-around game as a playmaker and perimeter shooter.

As a junior, she averaged 10.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists while making 51 3-pointers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1097050' first='Lanie' last='Stokes'] (Marionville): A 5'6" guard who led the Comets to a berth in the Final Four of the Class 2 state tournament.

As a junior, she averaged 17.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 3.1 steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Chase Uhlmeyer (Canton): A 5'7" guard who continued to emerged as a tremendous scoring threat as well as a 1,000-point career scorer.
