&nbsp; <strong style="font-size: 1rem;">[player_tooltip player_id="335722" first="Talya" last="Tillman"] | '24 Wing | Libertyville</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334688 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/160-Talya-Tillman.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /> <p style="text-align: left;">Tillman has no quit her blood. If she wasn't crashing the board for putbacks, she was consistently grabbing rebounds. Her knack for finding ways to score when deep in the post was a sight to see. Pump fakes, pass fakes, and sometimes.. just simple bully ball. Her ability to pick off passes and run the floor... is guard like. She has the potential to be an outstanding basketball player. Can't wait to see the development take form</p> &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="124881" first="Cheri" last="Michalek"] | '22 Guard | Bishop Noll Institute</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334599 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/22-Cheri-Michalek-300x212.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="212" /> <p style="text-align: left;">Cheri's senior status is showed in her game. A legit general when she's on the court. Her IQ, Awareness, and complete win at all cost mentality are traits of a Coach's dream. From scoring, ball handling to facilitating.. the 5'6 guard can do it all. She will compliment any team that is lucky enough to have her be a part of their program.</p> &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="335778" first="Hannah" last="Laub"] | '24 Forward | Waubonsie Valley</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334686 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/158-Hannah-Laub.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /> A stretch forward who has the ability to guard any position on the floor. Whether it's on the ball, blocks or help side.. she will leave her impact on the defense.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The lefty also showed her aggression on the boards and her smooth knockdown shooting.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> Hannah is ready to have a breakout season. </span> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong><span class="name-pointer">[player_tooltip player_id="265978" first="Layla" last="Pierce"]</span><a class="pn-player-link" href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/kree-nunnally/"><span class="info-box"><span class="player-img"><img class=" ls-is-cached lazyloaded" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/05/IMG_6236-150x150.jpg" data-src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/05/IMG_6236-150x150.jpg" /></span></span></a> | '24 Guard | Joliet Catholic Academy</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334606 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/30-Layla-Pierce.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /> A True PG. Layla's ability to always scan while creating opportunities is what makes her different from most guards. She knows when to score, and when to play off the ball. Her Competitiveness, pure passion, and obvious hard work will lead to a bright basketball future. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="265961" first="Narrie" last="Powers"]| '24 Wing/Forward | Warren (Gurnee)</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334716 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/197-Ronarrha-Nari-Powers.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /> Nari has the potential and ability to be a difference-maker for her team. Her strength, length, and athleticism can create many scoring and defensive plays for her teammates and herself. The shooting touch from the paint on out is something to be acknowledged as well. Powers will only continue to become a top player for her teams.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="335731" first="Alaila" last="Walker"] | '23 Guard | Kalamazoo Central</strong> <img class="size-medium wp-image-334648 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/10/118-Alaila-Walker-300x207.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="207" />A high-energy combo guard whose offensive package gets better by the game. Mid or deep… she can shoot the ball. Her aggression on attacking the basket is top tier too. You can't play up and you most definitely cant sag off. The confidence is what really sets a part…she backs it up.
