<p><strong>Here are my choices for 5 of the best prospects left on the board for the <a href="//prepgirlshoops.com/illinois/rankings/2025-rankings/">Class of 2025</a>… </strong><br></p>

<p class="text-gray-700">If your program is in need of a player who simply does it all on both sides of the court, then Urlacher is a player that you should be in conversations with. She's athletic, fast, tough, and has no off switch for the energy she plays with. Strong upside. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Lainey has the size and frame of a college-level guard, along with the skillset to be a threat from all spots and levels. While I believe she's at her best attacking the basket, Gussman also has the ability to space the floor and add depth to a program that likes to run and gun. She's a strong all-around player who can make an impact in various aspects of the game.<br></p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">An argument can be made on if Aria has so far been the most improved player. However, I believe she just needed a year to figure it out. Mazza is back to her role of being the first option to score the ball, and she's been key to why Benet is favored to bring home a state title. A 3-level scorer who has taken her defensive abilities to another level as well.<br></p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Crane has the athleticism and size to play multiple positions, as well as be impactful from those positions. From below the nail, her instincts and quickness are up there with some of the top players in this class. Relentless on the boards, and she's shown the ability to stretch the court as well.<br></p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Powers can bring a lot to a program offensively, especially from the nail on down. She has solid footwork, strength, and patience when shes underneath. She's a threat in all PnR situations and can make an impact in multiple areas. As offers continue to come in, coaches should reach out soon—Powers won't be available for much longer.<br></p>
