The Simpson standout brought speed, toughness, and confidence every time she touched the floor.   After making the move from Hicks High School to her new home at Simpson, Hickman looked comfortable, locked in, and ready to make an immediate impact. Transitions can take time, but she already looks like a player who fits the Lady Rams' style with her energy, attacking mindset, and team-first approach.   Hickman was a problem off the bounce. Her shiftiness allowed her to break down defenders, get downhill, and put constant pressure on the rim. When defenders tried to cut her off, she stayed composed, played through contact, and found ways to finish strong or get herself to the free-throw line.   What made Hickman stand out was her ability to make winning plays in big moments. She handled pressure, controlled her pace, and never looked rattled when the game got tight. Her confidence helped set the tone for Simpson, and her ability to attack kept defenses on their heels.   Hickman also showed a strong team-first mindset. She trusted her teammates, moved the ball, and played within the flow of the game while still finding ways to produce at a high level. That balance between scoring, playmaking, and leadership made her one of Simpson's most valuable pieces throughout the event.   Being named a two-time Player of the Game was no accident. Hickman earned it with her attacking mindset, poise under pressure, and ability to deliver when her team needed a spark.   KK Hickman left the LSUA Team Camp as a true difference-maker and a major addition to Simpson. She is a shifty, tough, high-energy guard who can create offense, handle pressure, and impact winning in a major way.     [player_tooltip player_id='1143966' first='Bella' last='Hunnicutt'] brought a grown-player presence to the LSUA Team Camp and made sure her impact was felt every time she stepped on the floor. The Simpson High School forward played with toughness, strength, and a relentless motor that immediately stood out in the paint.   Hunnicutt was a problem around the basket. She battled for position, attacked the glass with purpose, and gave Simpson valuable second-chance opportunities. She did not back down from contact — she embraced it. When the game got physical, Hunnicutt answered with strength, effort, and a willingness to do the dirty work that helps teams win.   What made her performance pop was her motor. Hunnicutt did not need the offense built around her to make a major impact. She created her own value by rebounding, defending, fighting for loose balls, and controlling space inside. Her presence gave Simpson stability in the paint and made opponents work for everything around the rim.   Defensively, she was tough, active, and physical. She held her ground, competed through contact, and made players feel her presence inside. Offensively, she stayed ready, moved with purpose, and gave her team a strong finishing option when the ball came her way.   Hunnicutt plays with the kind of effort coaches notice. She brings energy, toughness, rebounding, and a physical edge that cannot be taught. Her LSUA Team Camp performance showed that she is more than just an interior piece — she is a tone-setter.   [player_tooltip player_id='1143966' first='Bella' last='Hunnicutt'] left Alexandria as a high-motor forward who impacts winning with toughness, physicality, and paint production. Her stock continues to move in the right direction.     [player_tooltip player_id='1671432' first='Charley' last='Lentz'] brought a complete guard presence to the LSUA Team Camp and showed why she is one of those players who can quietly take control of a game before the defense realizes it. The 2027 combo guard out of Pitkin played with confidence, pace, and a strong feel for the moment.   Lentz has the type of game that fits winning basketball. She can handle the ball, play off the ball, attack gaps, and make smart reads when the defense shifts. What stood out at LSUA was how comfortable she looked within the flow of the game. She did not force the action, but when it was time to make a play, she was ready.   Her offensive impact came from her ability to stay balanced and make defenders respect multiple parts of her game. Lentz showed she can create space, get to spots, and keep pressure on the defense as a scoring threat and playmaker. As a combo guard, she brings value because she can slide into different roles and still produce.   The biggest thing with Lentz is her poise. She plays with a calm confidence, but there is also a competitive edge to her game. She understands spacing, reads the floor well, and knows how to make the right basketball play instead of chasing empty possessions. That maturity stood out during the LSUA Team Camp.   Defensively, Lentz competed and stayed engaged. She brought effort, communicated, and worked to make opponents uncomfortable. Her ability to contribute on both ends gave Pitkin a steady guard presence throughout the event.   [player_tooltip player_id='1671432' first='Charley' last='Lentz'] left the LSUA Team Camp as a polished 2027 guard who impacts the game with skill, IQ, and confidence. She may not need flash every possession, but her production, control, and winning feel make her a prospect who deserves attention.     [player_tooltip player_id='1143964' first='Molli' last='“MJ” Thibodeaux'] is putting together one of the strongest camp stretches in the state, and her performance at the LSUA Team Camp only added more momentum to what she already showed at the JSE Team Camp.   After showing up and showing out at JSE, Thibodeaux came right back and delivered another outstanding performance at LSUA. The 2028 Midland point guard played with poise, confidence, and the kind of control that makes her one of the top guards to track in Louisiana's 2028 class.   MJ's game continues to stand out because she impacts winning in so many different ways. Offensively, she can score from all three levels. She knocks down perimeter shots, gets comfortable in the midrange, and attacks the basket with purpose. She plays under control, reads the floor, and consistently puts herself and her teammates in good positions.   What makes Thibodeaux different is that she does not force the game. She lets the action come to her, then makes the right play. She can create offense when needed, but she also understands how to keep the ball moving and control the pace from the point guard spot.   Defensively, MJ brings real pressure. She stays active on the ball, anticipates passing lanes, and makes plays that turn defense into offense. Her ability to come up with steals, deflections, and momentum-changing stops gives her team a major boost.   Her back-to-back performances at JSE and LSUA showed consistency, toughness, and growth. She was not just good for one event — she backed it up. That is what separates serious prospects. MJ showed she can perform against quality competition, lead from the guard position, and bring value on both ends of the floor.   [player_tooltip player_id='1143964' first='Molli' last='“MJ” Thibodeaux'] continues to prove why she is regarded as one of Louisiana's top 2028 point guards. She is skilled, competitive, poised, and productive — and after another big performance at the LSUA Team Camp, her stock continues to rise.     [player_tooltip player_id='1322333' first='Olivia' last='Edwards'] walked into the LSUA Team Camp with a résumé already loaded with winning, but her performance showed exactly why her name carries weight. The Simpson point guard did not just play the game — she controlled it.   Edwards brings a presence that separates elite guards from the rest. She plays with pace, confidence, and complete command. Every possession felt organized when the ball was in her hands. She knew when to push, when to slow it down, when to attack, and when to get her teammates involved. That type of control is not easy to teach, and Edwards made it look natural.   What stood out at LSUA was her ability to impact the game without forcing anything. She handled pressure with poise, got into the paint, created opportunities, and delivered the ball on time. Her court vision is a major weapon. Teammates got better looks because Edwards saw plays developing before the defense could react.   Offensively, she showed the full guard package. She can attack off the bounce, score when needed, and keep defenders guessing with her change of speed. She is not just a passer and not just a scorer — she is the engine that makes everything run.   Defensively, Edwards brought the same edge. She applied pressure, stayed active, and competed with toughness on the ball. She has the mindset of a player who wants to affect both ends, and that energy helped set the tone for Simpson throughout the event.   Edwards has the championship background, the leadership, and the production to match the hype. Back-to-back state champion. Two-time Finals MVP. 2026 Class C Outstanding Player. Those honors speak loudly, but her play at LSUA spoke for itself.   [player_tooltip player_id='1322333' first='Olivia' last='Edwards'] left the LSUA Team Camp looking like what she has already proven to be — a floor general, a winner, and one of the most complete guards in Louisiana's 2027 class.

The LSUA Team Camp brought the heat to Alexandria, and the prospects in the building made sure their presence was felt.
