Here is a look at some of the guards and wings who were stock risers in the newly updated rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='777615' first='Grace' last='Means'] (Troy): The 5'10" guard got back in the mix during the summer after missing most of her sophomore season with injuries. When she is healthy, she is an All-State level talent who can score at three levels and take over games with big shots in the clutch. Her ball handling and playmaking skills also her compliment her elite scoring ability. I watched her on multiple occasions in June with her high school team and she was impressive at both ends of the court. She's just about back to being the old "Swaggy G" once again.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='849013' first='Baylor' last='Brownsberger'] (Appleton City): A talented young point guard who has been a starter since her freshman season. She is a three-level scorer who can also drop nifty dimes with her excellent court vision. She operates the pick and roll very well. She can turn the corner and get downhill or hit the 3-pointer if the defender goes under the screen. She picked up her first Division I scholarship offer recently from SEMO.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='848994' first='Millison' last='Sapp'] (Ash Grove): A 5'6" point guard who is one of the two small-school talents in the SWMO area. She is an entertaining bucket-getter who has smooth handles and a lot of swag to her game. She has a nice offensive bag full of escape moves along with a nice 3-point shot off the dribble. She had an excellent summer playing with [program_tooltip program_id='713416' first='Missouri' last='Select']'s 17U team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='849019' first='Lily' last='Carr'] (Spokane): Another talented small-school talent from the SWMO area who is an entertaining player to watch. She has put up some big scoring nights during her first two seasons at Spokane. She can drop 30 points at a moment's notice and even a 40-ball on occasion. She creates off the dribble and shoot the 3-pointer. She is also a tough competitor who will also rebound and play solid defense. She also played a strong summer season with [program_tooltip program_id='713416' first='Missouri' last='Select'].</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='777635' first='Taylor' last='Scheer'] (Borgia): A 5'9" shooting guard who has good athleticism to go along with her excellent range from beyond the 3-point line. She has good positional size where she can attack the paint and get a bucket through contact. She can also impact a game on the defensive end with her length and active hands. She has already started to received some small-school scholarship offers after a strong summer with Phee Elite's 16U squad.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='905299' first='Zaria' last='Jefferson'] (Jefferson City): A 5'8" guard who is one of the more impressive young athletes in the Mid Missouri area. She has good quickness and she plays with a strong motor. She has a quick first step to beat defenders off the dribble and she's a good finisher in the lane. She also rebounds and ball and can be a lock down defender. She played up at the 17U level during the summer with one of the [program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom'] teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1203955' first='Myia' last='Dillman'] (Mid Buchanan): A 5'6" guard who I was impressed with when I watched her in June with her high school team also also in July with her [program_tooltip program_id='712694' first='Missouri' last='Phenom'] St. Joe's 16U team. She plays well with the ball in the pick and roll and she can also shoot it from distance. She really passes it well as she does a nice job of keeping her teammates involved. She helped Mid-Buch to a berth in the Class 3 state quarterfinals as a sophomore.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
