Expert Analysis
Brady Peterson | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
I liked Schmidt when I saw her play for her Burlington team during the high school season, and it helped that she scored 40 in that game. However, her work to get to her spots and score efficiently, when the entire defense was built partway through the first half to keep her from scoring, was impressive. Nobody would blame her for taking the first semi-open look she got, yet she still looks for good shots, and that speaks to who she is as a player.

The Burlington guard is a player who can put the ball in the basket, with volume. Schmidt can work away from the ball and use off-ball screens to create space to catch the ball and get her shot off. I’ve noted that she scored the most points I saw in a game in Wisconsin this past year and found ways to score even when the defense was geared to keep her from touching the ball. She will probably fly under the radar, but she is a rising junior for regional programs to know.

The Burlington guard wasn’t playing for a traditional power this past high school season, but she impressed me in the game I saw. Schmidt scored 40 points, not just the focal point of her team’s offense, but the entire thing. Schmidt showed she could create space and score when five sets of eyes shifted to her when the ball was in her hands. She has the tools to play at the next level somewhere.
